A historical movie with full of fantasies and adventure. The story started about the cannons which were a gift from Dutch to Queen of Langkasuka but unfortunately, they drowned into the deep sea after the Dutch's ship were being attacked. Allies and nemesis began to plot a war where Queens of Langkasuka faced her rebel Prince Kawai who allied with pirates.

The movie itself reminds me about our own historical film, Puteri Gunung Ledang. I impressed with the cinematography, the visual effects as well as their wardrobes and costumes. It also makes me want to look back history book where Sultan Pahang married to one of Queen Langkasuka's daughter.

The movie had won many awards in 22nd Malaysian Film Festival. The story about a father, who owned a nasi kandar stall in Penang. He worked hard and only realized that he had spent more time in his business than his family when his wife met an accident and passed away.

I love the story line. The movie contains humor, love in family and friendship. I don't know about the others who had watched the movie but I found out that there are a lot of messages that been delivered here. A lot of advices in the middle of the story. Eventually, a good movie to watch with family and friends.
