Bikin Filim

As I forced myself through the pointless dreariness of yet another rubbish film produced by a Malaysian, I asked myself 'why??????'

Do you think audience are that stupid?

Do you really think we enjoy cheap stunts like suffering mother, dying drug addict brother, love-not-meant-to-be crap, intertwine with tacky Bollywood-like singing scene cliches ?

Please... If it's pointless and crappy, it's pointless and crappy.
And I am talking about the Malay film 'Qabil Khushry, Qabil Igham'. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

First of all, how did I ever get into watching this?
Well, in Malaysia, we are forcefully fed into watching these type of shows on almost every Hari Raya, every cuti and every weekend. Thanks to Astro Ria and RTM 1. When there's nothing interesting is on, we watch crappy shows like Sembilu, Maria Mariana, Cinta Fotokopi and the likes just for laugh and to past the times. We've grown accustomed to this nature. Thus, we seek them to fulfill our past habitual entertainment needs. Here, thanks to Youtube. We get to watch Ali Setan, Cuci, Gila-gila Remaja and many more, including the ever so pointless 'Qabil Khusry, Qabil Igham'. To top it up, the stupidity was not even humorous!

Is it the question of moral?
If it is, why was a good kid, brought up in a good family, being stupid enough to get himself involved with drugs?
If it is, why is the mother being punished for being a good mother?
If it is, what deadly sin that the family had committed to deserve such fate?

There's no moral or ethical issues in question.
Nothing but a bunch of cheap gimmicks and stunts bearing a controversially almost similar name to a successful Bollywood film. Stop making these kind of movies, please.
