Best 1Malaysia Movie

What I loved most: Beautiful story and actors

What I really hated: None

Talentime is a beautiful movie that deals with what it means to be a Malaysian, to compete with different races and learn to understand different religions and cultures, to fall in love. It is about friendship, family and how we live our lives. The story is simple, yet deeply moving. There are a lot of emotions going on between characters, funny at moments, heart warming. Talentime is not a perfect movie but it is without doubt one of the most refreshing movies I have ever seen. Thank you, Yasmin Ahmad!

Best Local Movie for the year 2009

What I loved most: Human Interest

What I really hated: none

Saw the movie twice, Love it. Malaysia's multi racial society was rightly depicted.Missed those years growing up, where we do care for each other???. Great show, tears welled on both times. See the movie, see how malaysian used to be, and can still be?Ask ourselves, what happened in the process of moving forward, we are actually moving backwards in race relations.Go Figure. Human interaction is what makes a society.
