Reviews
Dorathen Better Late Then Never
Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
zooview This is the one that woke Malaysian cinema out of its prolonged box-office slump. A crowd-pleasing musical romantic melodrama (based on the unrequited-love hit song "Isabella") which nevertheless has serious themes about religious tolerance, it's well-written and well-directed. The beauty of Terengganu state and the haunting "ulek mayang" song are well-exploited, too. As is usual with Malaysian movies there are limitations to do with budget and technical aspects, but they can be forgiven for delivering a good story.
