Wee and Rendra fine-tuning the mix for Arena Cahaya in Los Angeles. - Handout
Twelve million and counting in three weeks ... It’s not everyday that a domestic production has the cash registers ringing to the tune of millions of ringgit, but OlaBola isn’t a regular movie. It’s not one of those inane horror comedies or gangster vehicles. In fact, it’s one much closer to heart than the lame themes and social ills readily glorified in our cinema halls these days – portraying the spirit of unity, courtesy of Malaysia’s favourite sport ... football.
The characters in the movie are fictional but the references are obvious. And even though the storyline was created, the events are driven by reality, a past Malaysia has every reason to be proud of and a source of celebration.
