Reviews
Plenty to Like, Plenty to Dislike
I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
This is one of those good versus evil stories with P.Ramlee pairing with his sometime writing collabrator, S.Kadarisman, as his older brother. It is a one time pairing that works excellently but was cleverly avoided for a second time. This is the perfect movie to watch Ahmad Nisfu at his evil best but even then, it's difficult to really truly hate him as he does it with such comedic contempt that you can't help but like him. Even Salleh Kamil, who seldom appears in a good supporting role did very well and even added an ironic hilarity with his Charlie Chaplin moustache, making him look like he was really sinister but yet harmless.The supporting cast for this movie is fundamental in each of their own right and provide a nice folklore setting for a contemporary movie. Unfortunately, the women are just cosmetic ornaments in this movie, providing a relief for eye sores with all the male testorones leaping around the set. The music is listenable and one especially is really poignant 'Sedangkan Lidah Lagi Tergigit' sung by P.Ramlee and his on-screen wife Sarimah with the voice provided by his real wife, Saloma. It's a song about marriage and sets a moralistic tone in the movie about husband and wife.All's well's that end's well in this movie but it was really great to watch Abdul Wahub teach his nemesises a good lesson.
