Release


One Two Bato was rated "B" by the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB), indicating a "Good" quality.[1] The film was released by Seiko Films on December 14, 1988, with free Seiko Wallets handed out to early first-day viewers.[2]


Critical response


Lav Diaz, writing for the Manila Standard, gave the film a mixed review; though he commended the film's truthful focus on street children in the Philippines, he criticized it as leaning excessively into commercialism and fantastical situations. Giving examples, Diaz was displeased with a scene involving the child actors doing a Hawaiian dance, which he noted was well liked by audiences ("you understood why there are so many crazy people in our midst"), and he questioned how the separated twin brothers in the film were able to convincingly switch places and fool their families when they were only five years old.[3]
