'Pulang' will play with your emotion. Thus, making it the best movie you ever watch this year.

I rarely watch romance movies or stories, especially from Malaysia that typically has those extremely cliche rich guy marry poor woman and loses his memory and so on. This one particularly got me by surprise, in a good way. The cinematography of this movie is soooo good for a Malaysian standard, makes the movie much more immersive to watch. The soundtrack is tip top. The acting is great. And not forgetting the most important thing, the emotions portrayed in this film is absolutely heart wrenching. I'm kicking myself for not watching this movie in theatre. PS: For the bad reviews for this movie for the bad CGI can shut up. The movie doesn't has a big budget, with small budget the love that being put in the movie is more important. Would definitely watch this movie over and over again. And no, I'm not a production crew from this movie that give extremely biased review. Just a normal man watching movies for fun.

Got to hand it to the people behind this effort for the special effects, namely CGI, to recreate some scenes from the 40s during the war. Pretty nifty actually though slightly unrealistic at some points. It helped a lot to have the CGI as the story itself is really not above the level of the daily soaps seen on tv. Serious movie goers might not be satisfied in my opinion.

I thought the actors and production team did a great job, but the story itself drove me nuts. The man basically abandoned his family: no letters, no money, no return. So the rest to me is manipulative.

Todays films are 90% formula. Same stories, with different characters. This one is different. You will never figure out what's coming next. Visually pleasing village scenes, characters that suck you in, and enough action to keep you wide awake. This is my 1st movie review, so you know it impressed me enough to take the time to write this. Don't miss it! CS Directors Guild of America
