review filem: MAGIKA *no spoiler, i promise*

i never planned to watch magika actually but last week a friend from India came to visit and because we dont know where to go to here in penang so we decided to go to movie instead. ok lah to be honest i actually did want to go watch magika but the desire wasnt that strong.

why i want to watch magika in the first place?
reason no 1. its a musical! i have a thing for musical ok. (i love high school musical and its not only because of zac efron, damn he's hot. and camp rock?? totally lovin' it! and sell out, and hindi movies? does that count? hehe)
2. because its malay version of alice in wonderland.
3. because its different and i like different. (eventhough i rarely watch malay movie, i watched pisau cukur (solely because of fazura) and setem (because its different!)

BUT... because there's mawi in the cast as BAD (lol), it kind of draw me back. besides there's wall street showing.

anyway im so glad i watched it! eventho at that time i realli want to watch wallstreet instead. the story is very simple, but the movie as a whole, is FUCKING AWESOME. i dont really like diana's acting but she's allright. at least she's better than mawi. i think mawi improved but heck how would i know if i never watch any of his movie before. but he wasnt that bad. but not good either. other characters are all awesome i think. especially ziana zain.

and the songs. edry is such a musical genius. all the songs are very pleasant to ear. and my favorite song/scene is when diana and pak pandir singing and then later joined by mak andeh. so cute and funny and so musical like!

lastly, i love it how its so colourful in the magika land. damn beautiful. the colour of the grass, of maya's clothes, the sky seems so vivid and clear. love it!
