The Experts

Starting going cliche, with something unexpected after 10 years gloriness which they had to do back the things they have left long ago.

Here's my full rating on this film

Script: it's good and not into some cliche trash talking, more to formal and informative. 8/10

Story: it did pretty well, because of they show many side point of views in just one incident happened 10 long years that cause them to stop their profession, and also why the reason why they should reunite as one family. 9/10

Realistically: it is not as typical Hollywood where everything went smoothly, they did show some flaws and breaking the 4th wall during the delayed heist. Which is did contain some humour, and I like it. 7/10

Strategy: the plans and the way they making through the mission is detailed, not some kind of random doing this and that and later on understood in one sentence, the did put some clashes during plans which something realistic. 8/10

Surprise element: it gets when you reached to the conclusion why the reason they had to stole the ring to cancel the coronation just to find the culprit in the five ivory clan, well done. 8/10

Backup plan: Now what I don't feel comfortable the most is their helper, it's just out of the sudden, came out of nowhere and shows why he was there, and without him they would perished. Something I don't feel right about it.

Ending: kind of cringe, something that is unnecessary, but at least it's not bad though.

Overall I rate this film generous 7/10.

They hired bunch of big name actors but some didn't give solid delivery for their lines especially Aaron Aziz. Felt like the casting of Aaron Aziz is a bad call given how he tried terribly to be a depressed Vin Diesel in the beginning only to finally be alive at the end. Some lines from him were delivered very lazily despite the lines were very meaningful to the movie. Parts of me feel like the dialogues were dubbed hence why the deliveries felt weak/flat. But they were great actors and actress that still make the movie alive especially the younger siblings. Ofc all the villains have stormtrooper shooting accuracy and legit missed a guy who cant even fit inside a car window. The anti-heist prevention techs were a bit exaggerated and are there to fit the plot. But the dark floating vault shot is quite remarkable. In a way, you can see where the Finas's 30% grants went to in this movie i.e. The big name actors, cars, locations and sets.

If you have watch a lot of hollywood heist movie, you have already know everything. The acting is good, the story is just too cliche and hollywood-ish. They should just add some element of local like some subtle traditional sense or anything to make it still looks local. I understand that from malaysian cinema perspective, this is a very good movie, good budget wise, good technicality, good acting, nice action and everything. Only lack of local mis-en-scene, it just looks to hollywood and can be considered as Grade B hollywood movie. I think they should just learn from korean or hong kong cinema where there is a lot of stuff there that make us know that this is korea, this is Hong Kong, no one can replicate it. Malaysian must have that too, dont just make another "hollywood" movie.

Nice movie. From the start till the end, just perfect. There's a lot of plot twist from this movie, you just need to watch it. It's a good comedy and suitable for family movies. You need to understand it before you can review this movie. If you feel this movie, you'll get it. Basically, this movie is one of the best Malaysian movies that I have ever watch in my entire life. The storyline, the character, the props, CGI and more. Just perfect. And as a small reminder, this movie has a lot of plot twist. That's why I ask you to understand this movie. You really need to. This movie is high class standard for me. That's all, closed.

The Experts is about 5 siblings who have to steal a ring from 5 ivory after they got caught up by Glasses. They have to make that success to make sure all of them survived.

I will begin all up with the actors. Even though Syafiq Kyle was great in the film with all the emotions, I do think the best here is Remy Ishak. Not just his tango dance steal the show, his character was full of joy. Mimi Lana was my third best. She is very naughty with her temptation and her driving skills. All of the cast are perfect, except Aaron Aziz as big brother. A bit disappointed with him (especially myself as big brother). Cinematography was A+ thanks to Teck Zee. Other than that, it was a solid attempt. Oh, did I mention the music by Ricky Lionardi was a international level? Love the music.

The only cons I discovered is inconsistent editing. I somehow can see huge editing flaw especially on Ray's jump scene. There were also inconsistent cutting. Why there is black frame?

Overall it's a great attempt in crime genre, but have to improve in editing and casting for along. Second best after Sheriff. Congrats Astro Shaw and Blackflag.
