Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!
Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
pro_crustes I loved The Karate Kid, but the absence of the lead character's mother from most of his affairs didn't let me believe in the story as much as I'd have liked to. In this film, father/daughter interaction, portrayed pretty convincingly, is an important part of the story. This is still a coming-of-age piece, but it has more depth than Kid did, while retaining an excellent sense of humor, as well as showing a mature respect for the subject matter.The filmography is beautiful. The score is uplifting. The acting is compelling. This is truly an amazing debut by many of those involved.There are a few flaws, and they make it hard to follow the sequence of events here and there, but it all makes sense before the end.We watched it with our fourteen-year-old son, who liked it. A good family film for middle schoolers.
ehsan . Watched it and like it. - Some silat move need to be polished. - Movie a bit too rushing and some scene doesn't have any logic. - Not Original Idea, MORE like Karate Kid. Should watch Ada Apa Dengan Rina, The movie are more original and more Buruneian than Yasmine. - Nothing Fancy - Just as it is - Should use more locals(more local talented Videographer, Local Story writer, Local Screen writer, Local actor, Local actress, local singer for Soundtrack) to be call a BRUNEIAN Movie. - Yasmine can be call as ASEAN Movie NOT Bruneian Movie as most of the crew are Indonesian and Malaysian. - Bahasa ROJAK.Other than this, love the cinematography and NADIAH WAHID IS THE BEST ACTRESS!!!
Abdul Malik Omar My initial expectation of the movie weren't that high. But after seeing the movie myself I can't help but feel so wrong! This movie's great! What truly struck me was the movie's videography, drama, comedy (the Bruce Lee-like teacher is funny!), plot, sound, and suspense; I mean it was that amazing and done that professionally.Especially amazing after realizing, from IMDb, that this was Brunei's first ever featured film after more than 50 years! Talking about the ultimate comeback! I may be biased as I am a Bruneian myself but I kid you not, this is truly a great movie! A must watch for ever Bruneians!To Siti Kamaludin and the Yasmine team, I am so proud of you!!!!
Adi Safwan HD OK, since this is the first national movie Brunei ever made, my expectation wasn't that very high, but still expecting some nation wide qualities. To my surprise, I was more than thrilled, the soundtrack, comedies, and acting are all on par with national movies, and it is easily said that it is the best movie so i've seen so far being produce by Malaysia, Brunei and Indonesia. To me, this is by far better than any Malaysian or Indonesian movies. It's is even more impressive for a small nation to produce its first movie with an excellent qualities. Can't wait for the sequel! I salute the director, which is also the first Female director in SEA, and also the writers, and everyone involved. I salute you. If there was ever a movie to present Brunei, this is it. wonderful cinematography. p/s Don't expect Hollywood standard kind of movie , its more like an easy going, teenage friendly kind of movies that has a 'what do you learn' kind of end. FRIENDSHIPs and funny jokes wasn't short from this movie Highly recommended
