| User ReviewLucky KA ring band that spins playfully on a dinner table becomes a pivotal turning point splitting LOVE CONQUERS ALL into two parts, charting both the joyful process and the inevitable betrayal of love. Such small, lingering moments are beautifully observed by director Tan Chui Mui, and the film is filled with seemingly unimportant yet surprisingly metaphorical moments with heavy political implications. |
| User ReviewJustin TConsider the overall Malaysian film culture, this movie does the push the envelop in some aspect. A simple straightforward kinda cautionary tale. The men in this story left little to be desired, the women seem to be destined to be scarred in some ways. Not too bad, but not a lot of element of surprise. |
