Mukhsin

Synopsis
Orked is ten. Mukhsin is twelve. They meet during one school holiday and quickly become the best of friends. They play together and even dress alike. But everything comes to an end when Mukhsin has to go back to his village. Mukhsin never promised that he will be back, but Orked assure that she would ask her parents to drop by at Mukhsin's place, but a misunderstanding between them has changed everything. How does something so beautiful like love ruined something similarly beautiful like a friendship?



There are some suprises, 3 Sharifahs, plenty of things that wasn't revealed, humor that are not lame, great music and beautiful backgrounds.

I never thought any of Yasmin's films are "controversial". Much of it is true and some are idealistic. But for the sake of comparison with the first 3 Orked films, Sepet > Gubra > Mukhsin > Rabun is how i would rank them.

just watching the trailer makes we really really hav to watch it..
but unfortunately, this kinnda of movie, for me, not worth it to watch at the big screen.. huhuuh waste of the big speakers in GSC.. hehe

hopefully this movie will not create controversy like gubra.

seems promising. I'm thinking of watching this. but all my friend don't want it.

if u like this movie, check out Little Manhattan....will make u fall in love once again!

i was the first batch people who watch it.

i thought this movie a lot of sadness.. but im truly wrong.
this movie comes with lot of jokes. not slapstic jokes or lawak bodoh.
im gonna give 4.5/5 for this movie. really worth to watch it.
thats why this movie won an award.

Mukhsin!! What are you doing up there on the tree?

LOL

There's things that i wanted to know so badly.

What was written on the tail of the kite?
My best guess is "Don't Leave Me" as the song is playing in that scene. Anyone want try guess? Definitely not "I Love You" though. At first, i thought it's "I'm Sorry"

From NST:


What is Orked doing under the bed? With the cat?

A complete translation of all those Chinese words and more specifically those on Orked's blackboard. Yasmin said this has some meaning, too bad i can't read Chinese. All those who can read please translate for us, please?

The Orked in Mukhsin is the younger Orked we see in Sepet. The younger Jason from Sepet is also in Mukhsin.

jason is malay ???


huhuhu havnt watch yet..

No, Jason is not a Malay, but he is a Muslim since he's married to Orked in Gubra. If u want to know, go watch the movie

Rabun + Sepet + Gubra + Mukhsin = Mukhsin

i hope this movie is just good clean fun to watch. yasmin ahmad seems to rely on controversial matters too much. plus, sepet was good, but it was so overrated. haven't watched gubra yet, but i hope mukhsin is a lot better.

wow i din realise the sequels were named differently

aiya this is the kinda films we expect 2 watch come out in local cinema instead of the lame malay love movies with the same lame malay casts...YA is definitely the only one director who dare 2 do differently over the top unlike other directors n thus she shall earn my respect

We SHOULD watch this in the cinema - at the very least - to support our local movie makers like Yasmin.

I intend to buy the DVD when its released (IF its released).

next 3 months or less it will be shown on astro.. just like Cicakman.. coming soon on astro..

its on my wishlist,been following sinced SEPET,GUBRA now MUKHSin....reversed back

huh? when did orked marry jason? he's dead!

she married another guy (played by adlin aman ramli) in gubra.

It'll definitely be played during the primetime on Hari Raya, just like Sepet and Gubra before it.
Oh man, you should've stayed for Gubra till after the credits finished rolling. The most beautiful scene in Gubra, the reason why Ng Choo Seong's name is on the poster. The cinema staff should tell the audience lah...sad. Pay attention to their fingers if u were to watch it again. Jason really did died if u look at the timeline of all 4 movies. Yes, not 3 movies, but 4 movies about the Orked family.

I stayed till the credits finish rolling for Mukhsin as well. But no extra, FYI.

what u mean by "The most beautiful scene in Gubra, the reason why Ng Choo Seong's name is on the poster "

is it explicit one ?

Explicit? LOL. Seems like a hell lot of people didn't get to watch that last scene. Next time Gubra is shown on TV, wait till the credits finish rolling. U'll understand then.

harry,

cow man... you're making me confused! 4 movies? rabun's about orked's family meh?
