The first thing that bugged me is the opening. It opened like a typical MCU movies which sets a not so right tone to the genre. And yes, it has a credit scene too! which is unnecessary. Reminded me of my primary school essay where we have to sum up the story with proverbs.
In terms of technical aspect, its quite good for a local movie standard. They got the colours and the camera right but there is something wrong with the movie FPS, it just doesn't feel 24fps. Editing is just good enough, although I can see sometimes the editor tries hard to make a scene intense but ended up looking awkward. Now the big problem, the musical score. It's loud and doesnt quite fit to the movie and unnecessary at times. Come on la it's a political drama, the score should be minimised especially during serious scene.
The story is alright. Although, the script can be awkward at times but it served it purpose. Basically it's a political drama with a twist of your typical Malay drama sub plot. Not a bad thing but it's dragged out then it should have been. The main plot is there, it just a little bit too straightforward and simple. Not political enough I guessed? It can be engaging but the movie is surprisingly fast. I see their targeting mass audience but they set the movie in different tone than I expected it to be for a political drama. The twist is well...
Acting deserved a praised here. Vanidah Imran did a good job playing a fierce and strong woman. Gotta give her point for grabbing someone's dick, that's acting. The whole cast doing fine except Rashidi Ishak, his line delivery is just eh?
Overall it's quite enjoyable to see. Not a bad try at all.
