A long-delayed 'Gomburza' review
By Van Ybiernas
Apr 19, 2024 12:04 am

VANTAGE POINT

THE great historian Dr. Zeus Salazar asked me to review 'Gomburza,' which I was only able to watch on Netflix last April 9.

My biggest criticism of the film is the glaring (and deliberate?) absence of a nuanced historical context, which essentially hampered the coherence in its storytelling.
