According to the auteur
criticism, the example of the director’s film that is good to be considered as
an auteur is the movies that I have chosen which are Rock Oo! (2013) and
Rock Bro! (2016), both films are directed by Mamat Khalid.
Mamat Khalid constantly portrays
and directed comedy genre movies such as Rock Oo! and Rock Bro! Like
the aforementioned movies, both movies have an interesting mix of genres,
comedy, and musical. Everybody knows Mamat Khalid for his comedy genre film and
his film attracted many viewers and some of his film got box office records. We
also can see that Mamat Khalid likes to make his film in village life-style (Zombie
Kampung Pisang) or retro life-style as we can see in Rock Oo! We can
see that most of his film using same aesthetics from the plot, scene, sound and
music also sound the same. As example, in Rock Oo! and Rock Bro! Mamat
Khalid portrays both films in retro life-style or to be more specific, Rock
Era. In the entire both movies, the actors have to put on a costume just to make
them look as they really live in the Rock and Roll Era just to give the
audience the feels of living in the retro life-style. Besides that, the camera
effect also played a huge part in the films because Mamat Khalid used blurry
and vintage effect for the films to make it more realistic from the rock and
roll era. In the movies, we also can hear that Mamat Khalid constantly used old
and vintage songs just to give the feelings and nostalgia to the audiences when
they heard the vintage songs that have been played in the movies.
The mis-en-scene in Rock Oo! and Rock
Bro! is the retro life-style environment including their dialect, costume
and props.
