Buli

one of my all time favourite local piece by Afdlin Shauki. He captured the culture well. Most people tend to look at things in a very close minded way-by always referring to the framework set by their own group. What i like about this movie was the way Afdlin portrayed the inability of our people to understand that there is a thing called psychology. They took it for granted the fact that people who talked about their problems are weak and loser. sometimes they called them crazy. They dont understand that every problem has a solution and treatable. And it is ok to talk about your problem.It is only not ok when you whine about it.

We are so confined to the culture and prejudice from our surrounding that we suffered a lot because of whatever prejudices the society throw at us to believe. In the hope that we will not be different from everyone else.i like the way the movie advised the viewer to open up rather than believe whatever it is that everybody else told them to believe. I like the way he highlighted the point that people will say many things that's hurtful, but it is up to you either to react or to respond. i like the way the movie elaborated the concept of self belief and self confidence,how to accept challenges that come your way and deal with it..rather than running away.

when it comes to movie, i am very selective.In Buli, i like the presentation. the content triggered thought although it was presented in a very subtle way.i still think that Buli is the best literature work from Afdlin Shauki..so far..in my opinion.well, the rest were good, but i guess they were only meant for fun.
i just dont like movies which portrayed girls who cant stand on her own feets who think that survival mean getting married, have boyfriends, being beautiful or being dumb.DUUH!

I particularly love one line from the movie :Saya Bodoh Kerana Membiarkan pemikiran Orang Menguasai Pemikiran saya..Good line is good line.though i can remember the rest.

True!

and one more thing. i still hate YOU forever..no matter what you do to compensate for your thoughtlessness...
