Cordora: Lulutang Ka sa Sarili Mong Dugo (Шаблон:Literal translation) is a 1992 Filipino action film about Gaudencio "Boy" M. Cordora, a chief inspector for the Philippine National Police. Directed by Francis "Jun" Posadas, it stars Eddie Garcia as the titular police inspector, alongside Daniel Fernando, Roi Vinzon, Roy Alvarez, Tessie Tomas, Fred Montilla, Dick Israel, Roberto Talabis, Zandro Zamora, and Banjo Romero.

Based on real events, the film was produced by First Films and was released on June 24, 1992, as part of the revived Manila Film Festival, winning the award for Best Picture, Best Actor, and Best Actress. Despite this, critic Justino Dormiendo criticized the film as a routine Filipino action film, and considered its "superhuman" depiction of Cordora to be the "depth of idiocy".

Critical response

Justino Dormiendo, writing for the Manila Standard, gave Cordora a negative review. He criticized the film's screenplay and direction, noting that the storytelling offered nothing new for the action genre, "content as it is with the usual intramurals of bloody confrontations, domestic feuds and the law enforcer's death-defying feats". Dormiendo was also critical of the film's "superhuman" depiction of Cordora, stating that him surviving numerous gunshots to his body is "the depth of idiocy." For the actors, he was disappointed with Eddie Garcia's exaggerated acting and Tessie Tomas' "hardly believable" character, and expressed that with the exception of Roy Alvarez as the "gutsy" leader of the New People's Army, the supporting actors were the typical victims and villains of action films.
