I've watched it already!! and it's really THAT good. Very innocent, subtle and simplistic yet depicting very meaningful messages from within. I want to watch Rabun but where to get ar? And yah, you call that poorly- written!? How good is good ah pauuuu... !??
Anyhow, everything you said was so true and so detailed. It was a good movie. I wouldn't mind paying more for it. 11 bucks cannot justify my awe and respect for the casts and the director herself. Eh some will say himself O_O||| Is that true?

how can you call this a poorly written review. ish* you practically captured everything that was meant to be captured. lolz.
i really love the movie as well. i have been recommending it to people when they ask what to watch. but sad to say, i still have many negative answers from friends and family no matter how much i try to say that the show is totally worth the money and they will like it somehow.
it makes me sadder that jus cause its a malay show even if its good they dont wanna watch it. i just feel like knocking thier heads. lols

Mmm, now I want to watch all three! Is there any way to buy them on DVD or something, especially for me stuck in Australia?

Thanks Su Ann - that was a really good review (eyy, that was good la, except you didn't put the # of stars or thumbs up like some movie reviewers do :-P haha) and just reminds me that i've yet to go and watch gubra. hmmm i seem to hear the song "Field's of Gold" from Sting playing in my head right now....

"okay that’s my poorly-written review"
Aaaaah, the innocence and/or modesty of youth! (Are you really only 18?) Actually, thought that your review was so good that it makes my own MUKHSIN write up appear "ploddy" in comparison... ;(

Heheh, I'm in the same boat as TIara. I flew back to Australia just a week before Mukhsin started screening :\ I guess your best bet would probably be a good friend to bring/send it over to you, or some (rare) torrent if someone puts it up :)

That was a lovely review =) I'm going to catch up on the whole Sepet craze by watching that, then Gubra on *ahem* bootleg DVDs my sis bought on her last trip home. But by the sounds of it Mukhsin is a must-watch as well.

I've been meaning to watch this but I kept putting it off. Better do so before I'm flying back to India. Thanks for the reminder, LoL... and it's an excellent review, by any standards.

"If Sepet was onde-onde and Gubra was kuih lapis, then Mukhsin is white rice. Freshly cooked, fluffy, white rice put on a plate and disantap with clean fingers. Yes… that would be Mukhsin."

I really liked the movie a lot. I thought the touch with the blackboard-secret messages was an excellent idea...
I think the saddest part was when the cat (bujang) got abandoned. I was so glad when bujang came back... lovely cat.
In the beginning, it kinda got me thinking what a bitchy neighbour orked has. but after seeing the other part of the story it was like, i feel so sorry for her (the neighbour). Hmmm... nice nice... made me feel a bit guilty.
pan's labyrinth was terrific as well..

waifon : try looking in Speedy for Rabun!
reallybites : ask CLL's son to go with u lah :P

vvens : nvm i think it's showing for a few more weeks. take ur time .. :D
melvin : crazy ah .. haha as if i could

turquoise : nice eh :D i didnt take them though. got it in a press kit when i went for the screening.

naz : ooh i would love that! but what is TSC..?
foreverjas : come on, 2 hours wont kill u :P
annspam : hey do u know what the chinese words said at the start of the movie? the ones on the schoolbook. yeah at first i felt sorry for her when it first became clear that her husband cheated, then i felt that she deserved it when she made her daughter go say mean things to Orked.. then i felt bad for her again. wtf. eh i cant wait to watch pan's lab!!!

it's nice to know i'm not the only sentimental fool left on earth. so many people today are terrified of their own sentiments. you are like a breath of fresh air.
thank you for your sensitive review of our simple little film, dear.
