Ciplak, the movie

Yesterday (3 Dec 2006) I was at One Utama near noon with my brother and 2 other friends (of course, some ffk us). The purpose was to watch the local movie "Ciplak". We decided to watch the movie because one of our friend by the name of Ariff Aris (who happens to be an ex-schoolmate and ex-Kung Fu member as well) had a cameo role in the movie. He was also the Director of Photography of the movie.

For a local production, Ciplak is pretty good and funny, considering the amount of budget they had. Frankly, I wouldn't consider it as a movie but more of a documetary about the darkside movie piracy. Local productions never interest me, especially when there was practically almost no publicity at all about the movie but we decided to maybe give a little support to our friend here whom we've known for, well, I dunno... 10 years? maybe more...

The whole cinema only had 6 patrons at that time, out of which, 2 were someone we do not know, and we're guessing they must'd known someone in the crew or cast as well, like us.

So if anyone of you do have the time, do help us support our friend a little and maybe contribute a bit to the locally produced movies. Least we could do is to let them prove their worth.
