The movie revolves around the character Lt Adnan Saidi, an officer from the Malay Regiment during the 2nd World War. As the first few Malay officer, his conduct in the war was commendable. Infact, his unit is the only unit that had hand to hand combat against the Japanese Imperial Army. Enough with the intro, for me the movie does merit some points. As the first war epic ever film by Malaysians in Malaysia, it is considered a succcess. However, the high sales is mostly due to the patriotic spirit surrounding the time of the launching of the movie (during the Independence Day of Malaysia). Hence, there is a high volume of movie goers.
The lack of interest among Malaysians in history has caused the Armed Forces themselves to sponsor the movie, in a way also helps to lift up their spirit.
