An intriguing view of the lives of Malaysian youth

[mgduffy45 · 7/10 · 15 March 2017]

Knowing that drug dealing (or even possession?)can carry a death sentence in Malaysia, I was surprised to se how easily Odu was able to deal in dope on the streets, and how casually his obnoxious customers tucked into them at their rather dreary looking parties. Also at the way that girls switched from headscarves to ridiculously skimpy miniskirts, and from observing Muslim proprieties to casual sex. Odu was a sympathetic enough character to keep me interested, but I wondered how accurately the film portrayed Malaysian society.

TV movie almost good, far from great

don't aspect much, no doubt there is..some moments... but some flaws too many ruins it so this movie didn't get the thumbs up. # somehow this small time street pusher managed to get almost 60k this is so comical & it doesn't portrays the realism of drug biz world. # repeating environment & scenes which made me walk out off the theater after 50 minutes watching with patience . # its more like a TV movie, a good one not great & very predictable. # lacks of souls richness, the issue going on in this movie poorly executed, not in depth. # Characters root remains mystery not solidly well presented. For a Romeo+Juliet+drug wold kinda movie, Larry Clark's "Another Day In Paradise"(1998) & Drugstore Cowboy (1989) is way way much better, watch this movie to overshadow the disatisfaction after walk out off the theater & the rate is a joke

This movie was really good up until the very end. Save moments of your life and avoid it like the plague. The writer of this was an absolute idiot for the way he ended the story.
