Let's get into it

Everyone knows this is the best Malaysian show right now. Starting a young man named Fakri. He has been dropping out of the school because of one video clip. The clip shows evidence of a fight between 1 and 5 teenagers. The leader a.k.a Kapla knows about the video clip and challenges him into a fight called a manifesto session. Everything is permitted except a direct blow to the face.

In this series, you will see the protagonist struggle to deal with family issues and at the same time compete in Manifesto. The series displays power and brutality which a human can do. Now let's talk about the character in the series.

Character

Fakri is the protagonist in this movie. He is a character with a lot of anger issues and a victim mentality. But as the story goes on, his thirst for power becomes obvious even Kapla cannot stop him. He challenged the way of life in school and angered the Kapla.

Naim is a big brother to Fakri. He is gentle at heart and most of the men despise him because of his behaviour. In a short way to tell not masculine enough. He is a good brother just trying to help Fakri with family issues. But it is always not going well.

Kahar a.k.a Kapla of High Council. The one who controls the school at night. Fighting at night to become strong physically. Use everything to win in a fight and maintains his position as leader of the group. Hate Fakri very much because he challenged the way of life at school.

Things That I Like About This Movie

One of the bold series. But will not be compared to Bloodhound. Bloodhound is much better than High Council in fighting choreography. But there is a lot to offer in the series. Such as friendship, family issues, and tradition.

The main character's development is good. Not great as Walter White but it is good to watch. Reminder for the people who have high expectations. We do know no villain can top Darth Vader and Joker. This character wasn't that deep.

As the story goes if you are not feeling bored when watching the story then it is a good story. If you watch a film and you forget to check your phone. You know that is the idea of a good story. There is some heartwarming part between the boys.

Things That I Don't Like About This Movie

The dialog is not great but good dialog just only to make the story progress to another scene. They don't have a good soundtrack for the series just like Mad Max's The Fury Road. The fighting scene is not that great but it can become better.

This is the IMDB for you to check it out. IMDB

The lesson in this story. Be careful of the power. It attracts the worst and corrupts the best.

My rating for this series is 8/10.
