Young Revilla's first action vehicle still holds its charm

I caught a digitalized version of this movie and I must say it has not lost its charm after all these years. This launched Bong Revilla Jr as an action star and what better way to do it than starring with his (late) father. Samuel ( played by Sr) is bent on having his revenge on the De Lara family. He kidnaps the rich family's son and trains him hard to exact vengeance on the family. Young Bong is clueless on why his father is hard on him, despite the pleadings of his mother. When Rosemarie Gil meets the lad for the first time, she already has a feeling that he is her missing son. This was Viva films' first venture to action movies back in the 80s, a treat to re-watch again.
