Extremely well built screenplay for such a difficult setting to dig into, a brotherhood of the shattered souls as the pillar of the plot is well represented for magnifying the dire in the group of stateless people, an exact dystopia tucked within the corner of the metropolis. The acting performances are way out of this world, the commitment of both main leads is so tragic it will definitely make audiences bawl their eyes out unstoppably, the cinematography is also very precise in highlighting the social inequalities of the unfair society. Surprisingly even the closing part is tremendously climactic that ends with a high note, an agony that nothing will come close or even be resolved, a hopelessness so perfectly described.

The script is extremely good in the flow of the plot, tactical war strategies were really detailed and cinematography is unexpectedly brilliant. One of the most important aspects for a war film is the ability to uncover the humanity story of the people that are trapped in the war, and this movie has certainly done a really great job on highlighting such empathy for its characters. The production team also did quite a comprehensive research regarding the Malaysian involvement in the Battle of Mogadishu, by implementing real historical events they've done justice for the unsung heroes of our nation, and it marks a gigantic cinematic event that comes just in time for our Merdeka celebration.

It's great to see that Malaysian film industry has finally reached a new peak. Absolutely class leading action choreography with ambitious Malaysian martial arts that drives high adrenaline in this big wartime film. Set in the period of British colonization, the story had good reference on real historical figures and events, creating enough tension in its story development that leads to the intense final clash in a defensive ambush to fend off British's invasion in Pahang. This movie reflects on our modern reality and with its heroic act, it can surely served as an inspiration for every Malaysians.
