Polis Evo 3

The camera work is pretty basic but still neat and stunning. Editing and pacing are good. The premise is ok and the character buildup is good. The action is top notch. I heard all the stunts were done by locals, kudos! Malaysia finally has their own stunt team. My gripe is the dialogue could have been better and the actor who played the main bad guy should speak normally; dude, speak normally, you are not playing a super villain in a DC or Marvel movies.

My favorite character is Inspector Julie; I'm just weak around b@d@$$ b1t*h! I find short hair girl cop who carries and shoots automatic weapons is so sexy and Farali Khan looks so cute when she speaks. I love rough/tough girl yet still maintain her femininity.

The film's storyline is weak and quite simplistic. The action is unexciting, and the humor falls flat. As usual, films directed by Syafiq Yusof are tedious. The performances by the actors are decent. The chemistry is reminiscent of Police Evo 1 and 2. The cinematography and editing are also subpar. The villain's character is even comical and not satisfying at all. Sharnaz's acting is okay, but her antagonist role suffers from a weak character development. The idea behind the villain is uninteresting. Hopefully, if there's a Police Evo 4, a creative and skilled director, even if less known, can be chosen to direct the film.

Polis Evo 3 is about Inspector Sani and Inspector Khai have a mission that brings back the time of old time Inspector Khai together with Reza in Ops Sabrum a decade ago. The 'sins' that he made cause the revenge from Reza to target all police family. Reza questioning what is the actual duty of the police? To the family or to the job? This time, Inspector Sani and Inspector Khai team up with Inspector Dani, Inspector Julie and Inspector Dell and led by ACP Farouk. In their mission, Inspector Khai made some questionable decision that made a problem in the mission due to remembered the old times. Reza's character is my MVP due to his emotional feeling and threat. The score of the film feels great to hear. Even though the duration is shorter than the last film, I still didn't feel that long to be honest especially with the fight scenes. Kudos to the whole team!

It was an okay experience. However, I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed with the editing & cinematography. In comparison to its predecessors, Polis Evo 1 & 2, this installment falls short. I have immense respect for the outstanding performances by Zizan and Shaheizy, who displayed great showmanship once again. Their acting skills truly elevated the movie. However, I sincerely hope that if there is a "Polis Evo 4" in the future, the production team (especially the Camera work & editing) remains consistent with the ones behind Polis Evo 1 & especially my favorite -- Polis Evo 2. The editing in the first two films was exceptional (kudos to Nazim Shah), but unfortunately, it didn't live up to the same standard in Evo 3. The action scenes in #1 & #2 were more realistic & engaging while #3 felt less impactful. I wonder if budget constraints affected the overall quality of the film, particularly in terms of its artistic outcome.

My 5 out 10 rating is primarily due to the great showmanship displayed by Zizan, Shaheizy Sam, and Sharnaz. Their performances brought a spark to the movie and kept it engaging. However, the film fell short in terms of editing, cinematography, and action realism (this reminds me of KL Gangster, haha).

In conclusion, "Polis Evo 3" had its flaws but was still an enjoyable watch. I appreciate the efforts of the cast & hope to see improvements in the areas that were lacking in future installments.

Polis Evo 2 is way way much better and has better storyline than Polis Evo 3. Villain is not so evil and easily taken down hence no drama/tragic ending, very much anticipated and no twist at all. I feel like the movie depend so much on the publicity of the casts rather than a good storyline. At some point it become so cheesy and too draggy. I left the cinema feeling dissatisfied and dissappointed. Sorry Syafiq Yusof, you definitely have to step up and come up with something 'more' than this. We've seen many of this in hollywood movies and what we want is originality something like Pascal perhaps!!
