Narrative Methods

Tigers and Dragons have several narrative methods that differ this film from others.These methods are also the methods of making Tigers and Dragons slightly dramatic and heavy,not just typical action movies with light plots.

Vice Versa Method

This method is used to avoid the audience from deciding who is the bad guy in the movie because whatever happens to oneself,happens to another.For example,while Dhuha was having his baiah,Seng was having his ceremony to enroll in Wai Tin Triad.While Seng told the story of why he hated Malays,Ustaz Adil told the story about Riot of Kampung Baru to his people.

2-Side Stories Method

This story is told from both Seng and Dhuha's lives.Both of them have their own stories and versions to tell.But,without them knowing it,their stories will connect in some point which will make their worlds collide and combine making themselves stuck in the same situation which will lead to the main plot which is the feud of both races.

Flashback and Present Time

Tigers and Dragons features many flashback scenes but at the same time,the present is also told by the other characters.For example,when Seng was having his Blue Lantern status,that incident was a flashback.But,Dhuha's baiah is at the present time.
