Air Force: The Movie - Selagi Bernyawa

Look man, I tried to gave my best to pay my time watching this movie, but no I don't recommend, it's too flat and too obvious copycat, it's almost like watching a Tamil version of a Hindi movie, everything just a copy catalogue. I don't know what they're trying to show here, heroic that based of from Hollywood movie? Hell naw. The script? Not formal enough... I rather waste my time watching actual top gun than this copy movie, I should say this one is just a parody of the whole thing, anyone who's defending that thus movie is good y'all know nothing of the meaning real masterpiece. Nope best avoided, 2.8/10.

One of the best survival military film in Malaysia. Give insight of the real war with outstanding and believable fictional country. Very fast paced, action packed film but still focusing on each of the character. Stellar performance by all cast. Look at their eyes while watching. You can feel the fear, hopelessness and desperation to survive. Intense tension build up one scene after another with oustanding music score.

This film is a great introduction to Royal Malaysia Air Force. What I love most about Air Force The Movie: Selagi Bernyawa is how they humanized armed forces. They are certainly not super solder. It feel relatable because as human, we certainly have emotional baggaged and flawed. Subtle but brilliant scene on PTSD and Autism awareness.

I've watched 3 times and some scenes keep on surprising me. Hope the production will consider a prequel or mini series!

Lots of action, but also lots of melodrama. The special effects are actually not that bad and the units and equipment in this tale in a fictitious country are pretty on accurate for the Malaysian side.

Problem is the story is flat. There's the humanitarian doctor. The "critical of the military" reporter. The token Whiney character. The stoic commander and his band of hyper emotional commandos.

Of course there's a fairly chaste love story and the rivalry between brother in law and brother in said chaste relationship.

I will admit I had to fast forward a bunch of parts since there was a lot of excessive emotional outbursts superfluous to the story at hand.

The movie reminded me of the worst of modern Chinese and Indian cinema with it's kind of campy hyper patriotism, cardboard characters and boring "mission accomplished"-"roger that" type dialogue coupled with a lot of sentimentality.

Very bad acting..emotionless..i seriously do not understand why people would say its a good movie..bad directing..the actors would not speak in their normal voices.it is so cringey at times.i cannot connect emotionally..the directors have failed tremendously..very sad..after watching for 56mins i was still waiting for a moment that would move me..alas..it would not come..its a disaster..even having adi putra in d film it did not help with anything.im sure th seasoned actors could have said something to the directors about how to improve on some scenes..however they too were oblivious to d situation surrounding them.

You maybe already watched 'Tears of the Sun' Bruce Willis movies but to watch this movie you need to forget about that and start fresh.

This is not about rescuing VIP, this is not about superpower millitary commandos intervening civil wars. This is about sacrifices, not leaving your buddies behind, think for others instead of saving your own, talk about why they wanna join the elite special force team, to serve and to protect.

I bet if you are Malaysian and after you done with this movie, you will feel urges to go straight to Royal Malaysia air force recruitment center to join them.

It is also nice to see good jet fighter dog fight scenes from russian made Sukhoi Su-27. The planning, the strategies, the millitary lingo radios, the command centers I bet this movie done a lot of researchs from the Malaysian royal air force themselves for the sake of 'realism'.

Tom Cruise Top gun maybe have biggest movie budget, Bruce Willis Tears of the Sun might have shown USA arrogance of military show off but coming from a country in south east asia, this movie is worth watching.
