Sakristan Episode 5 Reactions
This series really deserved better, the episode was all over the place. While the acting and direction of earlier episodes could have been better, in this one they hit the floor. And it does not help by how the plot makes a stupid turn. If each episode were not as short as they are, I would drop the series here and now, I am quite sorry to say.
I have seen some really great movies from the Philippines, and I still hope the BL/gay dramas/telenobelas will get better given some time...

Zach outing Wolf and Zach and Wolf betraying Christian, seriously? Episode 5: Barong is one of the worst episodes of Sakristan. Everything about this episode is soapy (akin to soap operas) -- cringy plot/storyline, screenplay, and acting. After watching the episode, people might think it's ok to out those you don't like. There were a lot of corny dialogues. And while Henry's acting was ok and Xavier's acting was at best, tolerable, most of the cast including Clifford were just shouting most of the time. There were no subtleties at all. It was unbearable to watch. The technical aspects of the production design, cinematography, and musical score as well as the OST were ok but looking at the episode as a whole, it wasn't pretty at all.
