Review
This film is clearly made with fans of the original series in mind. Some viewers have pointed out the unrealistic fight choreography, questioning how schoolboys could possess such advanced martial arts skills. But at the end of the day, it’s fiction and meant to be enjoyed as such.
The film strikes a nice balance, offering moments that will make you laugh and others that might even bring a tear to your eye. Overall, it’s an enjoyable and well-made film, showcasing quality writing and direction from the Malaysian film industry.
