Commentary
Malaysian seems to be trapped in the whole Lawak industry. Every movies that were made must have comedic elements. Saiful Apek (ex- Senario member) were cast to play the role of Cicakman (Home Gecko Man) whom fight like sissy and whine all the time.
Check out Indonesia's Gundala and Thailand's Mercuryman. Aren't they just 'superhero-like'?
The superhero-coolness factor are not seen in Cicakman unlike all other international superheroes.
When are we going to get a REAL SUPERHERO???????
Probably not.... Crowds are not interested in REAL SUPERHEROES. They just want a good laugh. I guess Cicakman did the job.
I can't say the same for the upcoming Cicakman2, but I'll go the cinema to watch it regardless- Beli Barangan Buatan Malaysia. Remember, always support Local Movies.
