The Great Raid

This is a pretty cool war story about a group of 117 US Rangers attempting to rescue the Prisoners of War in the Cabanatuan POW Camp held by the Japanese. It was entirely filmed in the Philippines. Even featured some Filipino guerillas led by Cesar Montano as Captain something (I cant get the name those crazy americans keep mispronouncing). Anyway, it is a pretty cool movie. Cesar has a number of feature scenes. He had a good role. Hope we see more Filipinos in Hollywood movies. The good ones though, not the ones we would be ashamed to see on the silver screen.
