就在几天前，倩雯从GSC电影院的FB主页赢得了两张《变天》的全球首映礼入场券。正巧我在那天上去了KL，她就拉着我一起去看了。
顺带一提，我看过的本土电影是很少很少的，更别说是本土的非华语电影（华语电影=电影对白以全华语/华人方言来演绎）。
This movie is based on real life events that recently happened in Malaysia during this year's general election (GE-14).
The story revolves around several key characters so we were able to watch how the election unfolded through different eyes.
The performance of the actors were not over the top but realistic instead unlike the over the top acting in dramas of local shows that I have watched. The movie was not in one language but rather a mix of language reflecting how Malaysians communicate in everyday life.
Since the subject of the story is still fresh in every Malaysian's mind, the cinema hall was quiet and every single audience was invested in the movie because we have experienced the event ourselves.
这是一部以马来西亚的真实事件改编的电影，而且还是最为敏感的政治课题。电影主要讲述了各族青年或职业人士在面对大马第14届全国大选前所经历的事情。
电影从每个主角的角度出发，向观众展示了他们面对大选时的反应，而这也可映射在我们自己身上，因为他们所经历的或许就是你在那时经历过的事情。
电影里的六组主要演员都演得不错，而且配角也感觉就是本色演出。但是，我更欣赏的是他们的对白或应该说是语言。
马来西亚是由三大民族和各个少数民族所组成的国家，而各个民族所使用的语言都不一样，除了正规的，还有某些地方方言。电影很好地使用这些，让他们都用着自己的语言来演绎，当然也包括了一些马来西亚式的rojak语言（Rojak=对白里掺杂了各种语言）。
这些对白听在大马人的耳里倍感亲切，但就对不起其他国家的观众了，因为他们会听得很辛苦~~
The characters that stood out the most for me was the teacher played by Sangeeta Krishnasamy and also the police officer played by Remy Ishak. I felt their story is the most relatable and their acting were great.
However , you can tell that the movie had a low budget because there are certain scenes that were supposed to be filled with people, but you can tell they did not have the budget to hire enough actors so they try to zoom in on a small area. Sadly, you can still count the people in the scene.
若要比较各组演员的演技，我会更喜欢扮演老师的印裔演员 - Sangeeta Krishnasamy的演技，她演得很自然，果然不负她最佳女演员的称号。尤其是她和父亲争执的那几幕，确实让我感到惊艳。
The movie was made for Malaysians so I feel like if you're not Malaysian or up-to-date with Malaysian politics, you will not understand the movie. This is because the movie did not provide a history or setting of the political turmoil. It also did not provide background information abput the 1MDB scandql. Instead it jumped straight into the unrest before GE-14.
All in all, I enjoyed the movie despite its obvious flaws. I would also like to state I might be biased because of the fact that I'm Malaysian and the movie brought back feelings I experienced during GE-14. It is a movie that I think would have a big impact on every Malaysian.
至于该不该去看这部电影，就真的见仁见智了。毕竟，如果你投了另一个党派，又去看电影的话，感觉应该怪怪的。哈哈哈~
在我看来，与其说它是一部电影，倒不如说这是一部纪录片。它记录了各种选民的困境和难处，也记录了马来西亚最有代表性的全国大选。
它或许不是属于马来西亚人的电影，但它的的确确是属于马来西亚的电影。
