Air Force the Movie: Selagi Bernyawa

Very bad acting..emotionless..i seriously do not understand why people would say its a good movie..bad directing..the actors would not speak in their normal voices.it is so cringey at times.i cannot connect emotionally..the directors have failed tremendously..very sad..after watching for 56mins i was still waiting for a moment that would move me..alas..it would not come..its a disaster..even having adi putra in d film it did not help with anything.im sure th seasoned actors could have said something to the directors about how to improve on some scenes..however they too were oblivious to d situation surrounding them.

Low flying reprimandation? This yells Top Gun for when Maverick did his fly past! Couldn't they come up with something better ? What's with the English + bahasa mixed dialogue? Call signs were too corny.. lejen? SUPER CORNY DIALOGUE ALL THE WAY! Tuan Rahim? He seems the most relaxed amongst the entire crew that tried to portray some sense of urgency. I didn't know wether to cringe or cry looking at his facial expression!! Oh and another thing.. mid air refuelling when the jets just took off? They just had to dump everything into this show right?

Plus points for the enemy forces , north and south. They had a more realistic presence.

Look man, I tried to gave my best to pay my time watching this movie, but no I don't recommend, it's too flat and too obvious copycat, it's almost like watching a Tamil version of a Hindi movie, everything just a copy catalogue. I don't know what they're trying to show here, heroic that based of from Hollywood movie? Hell naw. The script? Not formal enough... I rather waste my time watching actual top gun than this copy movie, I should say this one is just a parody of the whole thing, anyone who's defending that thus movie is good y'all know nothing of the meaning real masterpiece. Nope best avoided, 2.8/10.

Lots of action, but also lots of melodrama. The special effects are actually not that bad and the units and equipment in this tale in a fictitious country are pretty on accurate for the Malaysian side.

Problem is the story is flat. There's the humanitarian doctor. The "critical of the military" reporter. The token Whiney character. The stoic commander and his band of hyper emotional commandos.

Of course there's a fairly chaste love story and the rivalry between brother in law and brother in said chaste relationship.

I will admit I had to fast forward a bunch of parts since there was a lot of excessive emotional outbursts superfluous to the story at hand.

The movie reminded me of the worst of modern Chinese and Indian cinema with it's kind of campy hyper patriotism, cardboard characters and boring "mission accomplished"-"roger that" type dialogue coupled with a lot of sentimentality.

One of the best survival military film in Malaysia. Give insight of the real war with outstanding and believable fictional country. Very fast paced, action packed film but still focusing on each of the character. Stellar performance by all cast. Look at their eyes while watching. You can feel the fear, hopelessness and desperation to survive. Intense tension build up one scene after another with oustanding music score.

This film is a great introduction to Royal Malaysia Air Force. What I love most about Air Force The Movie: Selagi Bernyawa is how they humanized armed forces. They are certainly not super solder. It feel relatable because as human, we certainly have emotional baggaged and flawed. Subtle but brilliant scene on PTSD and Autism awareness.

I've watched 3 times and some scenes keep on surprising me. Hope the production will consider a prequel or mini series!
