However, I feel that the explanation of the myth and magic was too little for one whom is not familiar with the culture. Perhaps, the objective was just a brief intro..

I have to totally agree with Shahrial..... what a dissappointment. The producer had a good chance actually to expose the so-called Malaysian perspective of keris but he blew it
