Anwar: The Untold Story

For me, it was queit unpleasent from the transition between the new scene. Editting was horrible. Also, i cannot feel or see the chemistry between the actor. For example, Anwar and her wife. Between the children too. Like there was zero chemistry. I know this kind of this movie is a bit risky and political topic but i would better watch documentry rather than this movie. I got zero knowledge and moral values. There was scene about the corruption but it still too much boring dialogue with no climax at all. For almost 2 hours of the movie, i felt already sleepy at the half and desprately wanted to finish it. Unworth it. Too much people pleasing maybe 😶😶😶

While the movie is not good enough for any international film competition, the actings are okay and the script is good since it's based on true events. It's the most special movie made because Anwar is the present prime minister of Malaysia and it tells the story of why Anwar was jailed for going against prime minister Mahathir while he was the deputy prime minister. This movie was completed before Anwar won in the last election and become the prime minister. It leaves me thinking, why is Mahathir totally silent over the movie? Why didn't Mahathir take legal action against the producer and director? Isn't this the best proof that what's told in the movie must be true?

It looks like a fictional story about Anwar Ibrahim and director not being fair to show historical value at that the time. More consultantion required by conducting more interviews with ex politicians and people. I feel it doesnt fair to rate this movie 7/10 because i value the facts and truth, and im not fan boy to Anwar Ibrahim. I just an observant to historical value at that time. I feel, this movie is not good enough maybe someone must rewrite again and remake this film. Sorry guys, i rather telling the truth then try to be 100% fan boy to Anwar Ibrahim. Please don't bash me for giving lower rating.

It humanizes Anwar by highlighting his vulnerabilities and the impact of these events on his loved ones. This approach makes the film more accessible, engaging, and relatable to a wider audience.

The perspective view from Anwar & family . The story straightforward, untold story ironically.

Timeline base on reformation era 1998, the plot dead no expending .

Film 'rushed' and that the plot did not flow well.

The music play very annoying, almost no transition like cop and paste.

Obvious abrupt cut scenes, and that the music was also cut in the same fashion. Some shots felt awkward and amateurish. Movie lost emotional connection. Furthermore, the ending was too abrupt

To conclude, this film did not do justice to Anwar's journey and what he fought for . Nothing being reveal the true side story hence the movie call UNTOLD STORY... no story duhh. The film felt like a compilation. A PowerPoint presentation and it was painful to watch. Like propaganda flyer precisely.

1star for free ticket.
