8.5/10
Not a big hit judging from the people streaming towards the exits throughout the movie, but I liked it a lot. It's a hard movie to peg - it starts out almost like a murder/mystery thriller, then becomes something like a family drama, all taking place in or around Malaysia (although filming took place in Cambodia and none of the actors speak Malaysian despite claiming to be Malaysian - yeah it's weird). The film is very slow, is bizarrely paced, and wholly unpretentious - but I was hooked from beginning to end.
