Why so much hype?
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Based on the Malaysian film industry, which are back warding, I think this is a quite good film.This film used folks story character (Badang, Pak Pandir,Mak Andeh,Bunian, Nenek Kebayan, Belalang & etc.) which are very close to audience.That makes this movie quite fun and enjoyable. All the little CGIapproach used in this film also helping in the storytelling (Althoughthe CGI quality not so good excepts for the morphing dragon). For Edry Abdul Halim debuts this is a good starts and hopefully more young director should follow his footsteps.In my opinion this genre of film (fantasy and musical) should be expanded in the Malaysia films industry. KRU Rock!
