isla s @RT89656869 Sep 3, 2022 This is very much a sobering watch - not an easy one, especially for the squeamish, or those prone to claustrophobia, for obvious reasons. I suppose it made me think, if but a little, of the film The Green Mile. The moral quandary of whether it can ever be, or feel, right to take someone's life after them having taken someone else's, well, that's surely one of the oldest questions and most debated things in many hundreds of years, esp. since the rise of what's regarded as civilised society. I thought this film did well at showing things from the point of view of the main character, Aiman, played by Firdaus Rahman. I would recommend this, as an example of a decent drama which is a piece of world cinema (its mainly in Malay, with some English dialogue). Its a tough watch due to the theme, as I say but otherwise its worth a watch. See more

Aug 25, 2018 It's a very simple story but so multi-layered. Really like the way it's executed (no pun intended), tho some scenes were hard to watch... great job Boo Junfeng! See more

nilufer e @Nilicim Jul 8, 2017 It was an intense movie in which you keep waiting for something drastic to happen but it never does, however the acting was good and it was an original movie. Wouldn't watch it twice though. See more

Jun 23, 2017 Possibly good but most of it not in English and I can't be bothered with subs See more

Nov 23, 2016 One of the best and most purposeful Singaporean films I've ever seen. Full review:>> http://bit.ly/2gBNEir See more

Jul 1, 2016 A very decent character drama, with pitch-perfect casting and performances. Perhaps some "travelling" shots could stand to be cut, but otherwise, it's absorbing and well-paced. See more
