Malbatt: Misi Bakara and Wira director Adrian Teh’s return to action cinema now arrives in the form of crime thriller Chelot, which has a new teaser swirling online ahead of an Augsut 27 release. There aren’t any available plot details as of this post, but you’re welcome to extrapolate what you can from the action and spectacle featured in the player at the bottom with actors Beto Kusyairy and Shukri Yahaya starring.
It does need iterating just how awesome Kusyairy is and seeing him in another action role of late with the fruition of his most recent biopictoral Gayong entries in his wake. Plus, Teh is exceptional at what he does when he’s handed an action movie script, delivering some of the best action in recent memory to come out of Malaysia alongside maybe a few other notable directors I can think of from the top of my head.
To add, that acknowledgement with Chelot in full swing comes with talk of the film’s history-making milestone with a five-minute and 19-second one-take action sequence, reported to be a first in a Malaysian production. That’s an interesting bookmark, a notable challenge to anyone inclined to think they can do better. Any takers?
Check out the teaser below and place your bets!
