CGiii Comment

Promoted as Malaysia's first gay-themed, trans-themed film...and, hopefully, the last - if this is anything to go by. Did no-one noticed that it was excruciatingly bad?

Khir Rahman & Raja Azmi have no perceivable talent as filmmakers.

The cast display no acting skill whatsoever.

An insulting, lamentable and woeful waste of time.
