There are "B" sides to every story (A Heneral Luna: Movie Analysis)

Perks of being a student? You get that Php 100 off discount when you get to watch Heneral Luna, I've seen the movie last September 27, 2015 and I must congratulate all thy fellow Filipinos who was behind that effulgence.
Note: to get a Php 100 off, you must bring your school ID's
After seeing Heneral Luna the movie, I have fully understand that there are always a "B" side to every story. El Presidente, a movie about Emilio Aguinaldo portrayed how mad and folly Antonio Luna is.
Since then I hated Antonio Luna and thought he isn't trustworthy.
If I will compare Antonio Luna, it is with the previous President Ferdinand Marcos, they are both a good leader and has an optimistic thinking about good and bad eventualities, despondent of that everything that they will do won't always get a successful result, conceivably realistic.
They are both dictator, they are both a follower of their command.
Philippines genuinely need a lot of leaders like Heneral Luna, who is strategic and courageous. The movie flaunted Luna's plans for the Philippines, but his ideas were stolen by Emilio Aguinaldo when he died.
Until now, Antonio Luna's death was left clueless. That conventionally happens when someone powerful controlled your death. Subsequent to that time, justice is insoluble. When you're influential, It was easy to take lives of someone who forestalls your plans and someone who has a great potential against replacing you.
Heneral Luna may be boastful, mad and folly, but generally, he is just being dauntless for his country. If he piped down just like any other soldiers, it would just get him nowhere.
He is an efficient leader, his constant followers knew how clever he is. They believe and trust his schemes and arrangement. Mounting him in every command he does.
I feel remorse as well for being a Filipino, the unjustness of our laws has nothing to do when you tumbledown with someone in a higher position. There is a hierarchy of human rights in this country.
The demand for a good leader must come from the people not from the associative leader as well, people must have the power to choose not the leader has the power to control people. Deviancy must be implemented.
