Polis Evo 3: Average Film, Disappointed with Editing and Cinematography
11 June 2023
It was an okay experience. However, I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed with the editing & cinematography. In comparison to its predecessors, Polis Evo 1 & 2, this installment falls short. I have immense respect for the outstanding performances by Zizan and Shaheizy, who displayed great showmanship once again. Their acting skills truly elevated the movie. However, I sincerely hope that if there is a "Polis Evo 4" in the future, the production team (especially the Camera work & editing) remains consistent with the ones behind Polis Evo 1 & especially my favorite -- Polis Evo 2. The editing in the first two films was exceptional (kudos to Nazim Shah), but unfortunately, it didn't live up to the same standard in Evo 3. The action scenes in #1 & #2 were more realistic & engaging while #3 felt less impactful. I wonder if budget constraints affected the overall quality of the film, particularly in terms of its artistic outcome.

My 5 out 10 rating is primarily due to the great showmanship displayed by Zizan, Shaheizy Sam, and Sharnaz. Their performances brought a spark to the movie and kept it engaging. However, the film fell short in terms of editing, cinematography, and action realism (this reminds me of KL Gangster, haha).

In conclusion, "Polis Evo 3" had its flaws but was still an enjoyable watch. I appreciate the efforts of the cast & hope to see improvements in the areas that were lacking in future installments.
