Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. Adviser: Mrs. Cristina M. Signo. The study focused on the construction of masculinity in the movie Manila Kingpin: The Untold Story of Asiong Salonga. The construction of masculinity was analyzed through the claims, claims-makers, and the claims-making process in the movie. In the evaluation of film, the researcher utilized the roles of male characters through seven dominant characteristics: character role, physical descriptions, socioeconomic status, family structures and practices, sexuality, and aggression. Manila Kingpin: The Untold Story of Asiong Salonga demonstrated more scenes with physical aggression and violence. In the analysis of claims-makers, the actors and the directors generated the image of the characters and portrayed the characterization of the roles. They utilized masculinity through the portrayals of the actors, on the film making process (Pre-Production, Production and Post-production) and masculinity on the context of the message. In the evaluation of claims-making process, the construction of masculinity is derived through the introduction, rising action, climax, falling action and the resolution. Likewise, the study asserts that the movie Manila Kingpin: The Untold Story of Asiong Salonga constructed masculinity through its claims, claims-makers, and the claims- making process that made up the Social Constructionist Perspective. affirmed the construction of reality as compelling and valid.
