One Two Jaga

Or is it or? Well whatever the case this is a nice little independent movie, that deals with small town (village?) criminals. The movie has a lot of characters and if you are not used to watching movies from Asia in general, you may get confused. A lot of story, a lot of people, so a second viewing may have to take place for you to get all of it.

Don't feel bad about that, try to cherish it rather. The movie is short and goes by quite quickly. More than decent with enough action to keep you on the edge of your seat too. If you have a heart for small budget movies that seem to have filmmakers with passion at the helm you could do worse

Good acting. Good storyline. I love the realness of the atmosphere in this movie.

Good try for Malaysian film. Hope more to come.

"This is the first time I've written a review on IMDB, and I must say the film is excellent. I think it portrays not just the shadow of Malaysia's wealth and prosperity, but also the harsh realities of life. As a Vietnamese viewer, I appreciate how the film communicates its message effectively within its boundaries, allowing everyone to understand its intent.

The film is touching; it portrays characters who are not inherently wrong but are pushed to desperate corners by life and their environment. They explore, feel anger, and even turn against each other. It's a story that resonates with the difficulties faced by immigrants in various countries, from the US and UK to Germany, Japan, and other Southeast Asian nations.

I truly love this film, and I commend the director for using the "show, don't tell" approach. Unlike some popular Vietnamese directors who tend to be verbose or focus on superficial elements, this film delivers a meaningful message without unnecessary clutter."12.

Our movie industry is so far behind because we never make a movie about us, about human. We just keep making the same fun popcorn movie every year until a lot of moviegoer have lost their hope in our cinema. We have a lot of story to tell about our people, our country, our culture, our history but we keep making normal movie. Its a waste, its a big waste. Suddenly, Namron come out with ONE TWO JAGA, a movie about our country's problem. Immigrant. Then, people dont like it, they said its too serious and everything, till it make Namron feel frustrated and he said that he just want to join the mainstream, keep making "normal" movie to make money, he dont care if he keep fooling people with lazy writing, cheap joke & everything. As long as people laugh and he got money out of it. Seriously, malaysia is lack of serious moviegoer. We just want to have fun, until we forget that film is not only a fun thing, its also an art.

Corruption as it finest. The sruggle between what is good and what is wrong is so intense and can lead to any possibilities.
