Audience Member La primera película malaya SERIA que veo, aunque suelta algún que otro "gag" típico del cine, barato, del país, que, normalmente, suele imitar a las ya de por sí malas películas de miedo indonesias, haciéndolas todavía más ridículas, aunque sin llegar, claro, a los límites de la estupidez del cine indio. Tras este desbarre salvaje, he que decir que la temática es, cómo no, religiosa: en este país todo gira alrededor de la religión, y el cine no podía ser menos. Religión y relaciones con las otras razas, con los otros pueblos que habitan Malasia, los indios y los chinos, especialmente con estos últimos. Queda patente en la historia que se narra que los chinos sólo confían en el dinero, su dios, y que los malayos sólo lo hacen en Allah, el suyo. Los indios pasan a formar parte de la minoría anecdótica, para variar. La peli es realmente curiosa, mucho más seguramente para los que no conocen la realidad en este apartado confín del mundo, y se deja ver, aunque la calidad de algunas de las interpretaciones caiga en lo amateur. Todo se andará, espero... Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Terbaik douh!!! Baru je layan tadi. Baru ada kesempatan! Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member lots of plot elements undeveloped, leaving the ending unsatisfying... but i think the key message got across in the end, and perhaps that was what yasmin intended to do Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member too religious plot for my liking.. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member It is still signature Yasmin Ahmad right down to the ambiguous art film ending. Her visuals and style always carry a down-to-earth warmth and natural feel, but her characterization still remains uneven. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/13/23 Full Review Audience Member MUALLAF is Yasmin's second last feature film, her last one is TALENTIME (2009). Yasmin left us on 25 July 2009 at Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. After watching MUALLAF today, I finally completed my Yasmin's film list. MUALLAF focuses on religion topics, which is very sensitive for a conservative country such as Malaysia. Today, more than a year after the film's world premier, MUALLAF finally lands on its hometown. Yasmin often puts priority on her audiences rather than the film critics, she generously sacrifices "the perfection" of her films for that matter, as well as the awareness of the media itself. Yasmin wants her films to reach out to as many audiences as possible, she wants to send her messages as broad as possible, not to teach her audiences, but to trigger their thoughts...conclusively, just about one simple word with four letters, L, O, V, E. All Yasmin's films talks about this four letter word. MUALLAF is honest, simple and clear. That's the beauty of love, the beauty of Yasmin. My favorite Yasmin's films are: RABUN (2003) and MUALLAF.
