Heneral Luna (lit. 'General Luna') is a 2015 Filipino epic war film starring John Arcilla as the titular character Antonio Luna who led the Philippine Revolutionary Army during the early phases of the Philippine–American War. Directed by Jerrold Tarog and produced by Artikulo Uno Productions, the film received critical acclaim from critics, praising its cinematography, writing, acting and plot. The film was selected as the Philippine entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 88th Academy Awards but it was not nominated.^[4]

With a production budget of ₱80 million,^[5]^[6] it is one of the most expensive Filipino epic historical films ever released. On September 29, 2015, it broke the previous record of ₱160 million to become the highest grossing Filipino historical film of all time.^[7]^[8]^[9] Despite a 50% discount that was offered to student viewers,^[10] by the beginning of its fourth week, the film was well on its way to reaching the ₱200 million gross ticket sales.^[11] On October 11, it was officially announced that the film had reached its ₱240 million break even point.^[5] The film's success spawned the sequel Goyo: Ang Batang Heneral, which focuses on General Gregorio Del Pilar during the Philippine–American War.
