Hikayat Merong Mahawangsa
tells the story of the title character, and how he came into his own kingdom,
the Kingdom of Langkasuka. It started out with an anecdote, between the Chinese
and the Romans went through India straight to Siam, Kedah, Langkasuka and then
to Geruoda Island. It is told in the story form by one of his descendants.

It is so far quite an
enjoyable movie to watch but not really my type though. The movie feels more
like a mixture of “Pirates of the Caribbean” and “Lord of the Rings”. But there
are some tiny minute details of the movie that bothered me and brought the
movie down a couple of pegs.
Stephen Rahman Hughes has
the most on-screen role. He is nice looking and he has nice physique. The only
thing that I dislike is his Malay delivery was quite bad, and he spoke Malay
all the time. But he is my favourite actor in this movie though. I would rate Hikayat Merong Mahawangsa 6 out of 10.
