At the End of Daybreak (Movie)

I saluted because it tempted me to watch. Why the temptation can't resist? The temptation is strong because this movie is a local Malaysian movie and able to win numerous awards overseas. My impression is "whooah, it should be a worthwhile movie"

"Xin Mo" literally means the devil of heart. It is actually the urge or temptation within a person. The movie tried to portray social phenomenons which prominent in this modern era. Rape, Murder, Premarital sex, Lie and others are happens frequently nowadays. Is the moral value deteriorating? Everyone of us regardless of age, race or religion, have the tendency to commit a sin.

It is a pretty philosophical movie, as I presumed. My initial judgment of the movie was it was a waste of my time and money. However, it also boosted my curiosity to discover the hidden meaning of this movie. I believe that movie is not just entertainment, but educational.

Our defense mechanism is denial. Deny what we had done wrong, or deny what is out of our expectation. We cant afford to believe we can commit a sin, or we choose not to believe our close kin or friends might do wrongly too.

Moral value is not theoretical, it supposes to be practical. However, any absolute could become non-absolute after we twisted the argument that side our position. We can argue, but we also should set a rule to follow. Make an absolute within us that make peace and love to the people in community.

Again, think out of the box, is a way for me to deal with philosophy
