Okay but not Okay
naiskirito29 May 2019
The first act in this movie will make you thought that this is a horror melodrama with a beautiful transation and cinematography and with a add of horror soundtrack you will never know that this movie will take your enjoyable and drag you to the down of a suck mindblowing.Because this movie have a 2 version with a totally different ending.They got a Shutter Island and Korean Movie 'Forgotten' vibe but that not enough to make we understand a whole storyline in this movie especially for the Version 2.After 20 minutes the storyline is quite diverse with a klise jumpscare scene.The end of this movie is not to answer the question but it is another issue that is more confusing.So it not just a mindblowing movie but it will give you a migraine.A lot of audience get angry with Version 2 but its totally different with Version 1 ending and reception of the audience.But still the 2/3 part of this version is same with V2.However many questions are answered in this version.For the acting I will give 8.5/10 to the main actor Zul Ariffin 'Jeffri' and 8/10 for Rosyam Nor 'Detective' and 7/10 for the others.Transition 8/10.Cinematography 8/10.Storyline 6.5/10.Act 1 7.5/10 Act 2 7/10 Act 3 7/10 for V1 and 6/10 for V2

Don't worry, no crucial spoiler.

Summary: This movie has 2 alternate ending (version 1 and 2), both were the same movie until the last 15-18 minutes. Both ending are different, completely different but they do have a major similarity( or more into the real cause....).

Opinion :It was fun and interesting, however it was not a masterpiece and contain few goofs/mistakes at certain scenes, few unexplained thing or impossible to be left out (maybe the director intended to left that part hanging). Yes we can still draw a conclusion for the movie but the hanging part left unanswered. Some Actor/Actress did a good job in acting, (Jeff, Azman, the police officer). Other I felt lack of expression but still Okay!. Overall this movie was not a thrash! definitely worth to watch. Some review said thrash and worst movie ever were being too irrational and did not know how to give rating. You don't rate a movie through your dissatisfaction. It is impossible to expect a masterpiece every time a movie is released.

DONT READ BELOW!!

MAJOR SPOILER: Well I think the main cause was the ghost of the house...It cause great confusion; In version 1, I would said the ghost was the real root of the confusion (still many hanging parts especially on the dead body in the car( the never show maid?, still why should jeff accidently kill the maid? as the maid would not interfere with his doing, in the police story, jeff argue with lailai and accidently killed her. So how could the maid caught in that? maybe ghost manipulation?, too many speculation can be made as they were no sufficient clues).

In version 2, I would said Azman is real mastermind, but still with interference of the ghost. Also got some hanging part... at the last scene the police officer said his wife was long gone. But before that, Azman caught her to get the money. Apparently she was the ghost. Then who are the one who kill Laila in the first place? (pure accident? ghost cause the accident? when she was dead?). This kind of mystery should not be left hanging.

Well, it was not perfect. But it was okay. I wish there is a third version, maybe a happy ending as V1 and V2 both are sad ending. Thall all, Good Day and Happy Watching!

Kind of interesting

The storyline is quite interesting although a few things dont make any sense. But hey, for a malaysian movie, this gotta be one of the few good ones as most of it is just a repetitive low budget crap.

The cinematography is quite good and kind of progressive for the malaysian film industry.

Out of 10 id give it an 8 for a malaysian film based rating context. Worth the watch.
