Mga Lahing Pikutin

About This Movie

Mga Lahing Pikutin is an interesting blend of comedy and drama that dives into the peculiar dynamics between five attractive gigolos and their wealthy, yet unattractive, matron clients. The film explores themes of desire and innocence, creating this almost surreal atmosphere where the younger colegialas become a match for the gigolos. The pacing can feel a bit uneven, but it adds to the charm as you navigate through the characters' tangled relationships. Performances are quite varied; some feel natural while others seem a bit over-the-top, which actually adds to its unique flavor. It's a film that doesn't shy away from exploring social taboos, all wrapped up in a somewhat playful package. Definitely a curious piece of 80s cinema from the Philippines worth discussing.
