This has got to be the best malay movie in a long...long time. The story line was simple, it was the actors and the dialogue that stole the show.We have of course :
- Awie as Usin, the guy without the SPM Cert who has returned home after working in Singapore
- Ucop, the ex dancer who has become paralysed (but can miraculously run when he sees Kak Limah)
- Abi Hurairah, ucop's helper and friend
- Pak Abu and Pak Jabir : the two veterans of the film
- Che Nin : the mysterious beauty
- and not forgetting- Kak Limah
A special mention for the two bomohs, the ambulance driver and the fat guy who caused ucop's injuries (sebab kamu la kaki awok jadi camni)
But jokes aside, Mamat Khalid is best known for his satire. I think he is trying to poke fun at Malaysians who love to believe in the powers of the supernatural, and watch ghost stories. Have u noticed the trend Malaysian movies are following..whether its about hantu, evil spirits, witchcraft...its all we are being served today. Even the telly has not escaped this..
So Malaysia, its about time we get rid of this trend, its does only downgrade our taste, but also feeds the minds of our younger generation with rubbish we should have thrown out our belief system a long time ago..
Again..kudos to Mamat Khalid..and if you're reading this...let it be known that Nor Azean has watched your movie 6 times!!
