If you set the bar low...

...you might find some parts "ok".

A few impressions:

1. CG fights are where most of the effort went. OK for PH tv but tbh games today look way realistic. The mech models are good but the lighting (the "rendering engine" is this was a game) makes them look like some ps3 games with the bloom all saturated and toy-ish looking. Also they use a full screen gradient filter that looks unnatural.

2. Live-action cinematography is standard PH telenovela, which is bad. High field of view in wide shots like in variety shows. No flow in the sequencing of shots. Almost as if no storyboarding was included in the production process.

3. Script and acting are a combination of too much and too little. Too much filler on scripts and too little effort put in the dialogue. Actors would probably act better under someone like Marilou Diaz-Abaya but unfortunately they're not.

Overall, it's better than most shows on PH tv in terms of CG, but only because that was a low bar to begin with.
