After quickly settling into his new role, Aiman's diligent attitude catches the eye of chief executioner Rahim (Wan Hanafi Su) who asks him to become his apprentice. However, although desperate to continue his rise through the ranks, it soon becomes clear that a ghost from Aiman's past could put his future at the prison in jeopardy. (Arrow Films)

If the ending wasn’t so badly made, I could brag here that I’ve recently seen two movies from Singapore and both were of a very high quality. The Apprentice has a great premise, builds up high expectations towards the ending and then just fades away. What a pity.

I liked this design. There is no unnecessary push on emotions here; it's somewhat reserved, yet the underlying theme of whether death is actually right and whether it's possible for someone else to decide and distribute it, given certain conditions, is still present in the background. On a personal level, it remains good and strong.
