Upin & Ipin: Keris siamang tunggal (2019)
Boooooorinngggg!!!!
Before I went to watch this film, I met many negative reactions of most people with it, mostly from its series. But for me, Upin Ipin is completely new and I don't have any prejudice here. But after watching it, I found it to be extremely bad, guys, this is the second time I'm disappointed with Malaysian animation :(
What is the movie about? Well, "During a house cleaning, two siblings Upin and Ipin found an ancient sword. It was this item that brought the children to a strange land - the place of a raging evil man. What Upin, Ipin and friends have to do to fight against evil?
Reading here, you probably don't need to speculate too much to know how it go. But even knowing it cliché, filmmakers don't know how to renew, even making it worse. Upin Ipin themself and a ton of other characters also acted and thought unclearly, without a specific goal but running all over the place, making the movie too rambling and much longer. There is no definite effect on the plot, even the smell of time. I feel like having many separate parts is ok, but when paired, it becomes ridiculous. Until the end of the film, more characters come, but because the film already has too many characters, no one is make enough adjustments, very faint and shallow. The only bright spot in the film might probably be the last five minutes with the battle against the villain. The humor of the movie is also extremely small.
About the graphics quality, you can evaluate it when watching the trailer. For me, it's only good for its budget, but compared to other movies, it only reached the average size of the movies now, more than videos on YouTube a bit. The sound and English voice, though sounding quite heroic, is very jarring and it sounds a bit hard to hear.
Finally, if you've seen Endgame, and like Upin Ipin, just go and see, if not, save your money.
Wheely (2018)
Bad. Very bad. The Emoji Movie is nothing compared to this movie.
I am an Asian. The reason I chose to watch this movie at the theater is because I want to know how Asian animation is developing. And I was really disappointed when I finished watching this movie.
Except the animation, the rest is too bad. This may be the worst animation film I saw this year, although there are films that are not good like The Grinch or Ploey (Iceland). The plot is a mess, confusing and troublesome. The director was too greedy to put too many story lines in 1h30m . Humor = 0 and this is a ripoff of Pixar Cars at the upper level. Discrete film plot. The film has tons of characters, but any character does not do well. I know this is one of Malaysia's most expensive animated films. But unfortunately, a good film doesn't mean a high-budget film, it seems that this film burns money for fun.
Don't waste your time watching this movie. The Emoji Movie is much better than this. Trust me.
