Critic Reviews
Asog (2025) Review: Queer Joy After the Typhoon
★★★½☆
Asog follows Rey, a non-binary teacher and typhoon survivor, on a road trip toward fame: a playful, uneven Filipino hybrid of comedy, documentary and protest.
Yes, with reservations. It is a warm, original blend of comedy and climate testimony, best for adventurous viewers who can forgive its loose, uneven structure.
