Critic Justino Dormiendo of the Manila Standard gave the film a severely negative review for its dialogue and sadistic violence, describing it as a "theater of cruelty." A sequel, Alyas Pogi: Ang Pagbabalik, was released in 1999.
The film is streaming online on YouTube.
Alyas Pogi 2 was released in theaters on August 26, 1992.[2][3]
Justino Dormiendo, writing for the Manila Standard, gave the film an extremely negative review, stating that it is "more empty (but noisy) posturing in the local action genre." In addition to his criticisms toward the lack of "intelligent dialogue", he severely criticized the film's "theater of cruelty" and the filmmakers' blatant violation of the instructions from "censors" to remove or shorten seven violent parts of the film by keeping them in, writing that "I left the theater feeling devastated, dehumanized, and degraded by a bunch of sadists on the screen and the perpetrators behind it."[4]
