It is remarkable how Film industry in indonesia has evolved. Im not going to spoil much but read with ur own risk.

To be fair. I enjoyed this movie because of how great indonesian production has come. The CGI was very good. It is noticeable but it is better than what we got before.

In my opinion the fails in our film is mostly in Set Design and Sound. Many of my country movie felt really.. homemade. Im not mocking my own country, but thats just how i feel. Which i didnt felt while watching this movie. The set design was impressive. The environment felt ALIVE. Like i can go to there and do things. Great job for the crew and director.

For sound design... i dont know what to tell you but, for me this has been a big issue. The dialogue audio felt... numb?? Idk the words. Sorry. But i can show a comparison. If you have a time go watch something from western, and compare the dialogue audio with ours. Ours felt like its recorded. Which it is. But its supposed to be not. Its not that im hating our industry. It is good. Its nice. I can hear and understand it. But if it can get better. Why not?

In terms of fight scene. I love the choreography. Its perfect. But the camera is just too close to the character.

One thing i like about this movie so much that it doesnt shy away from taking a wide shots. I loved it.

I cant say much about the plot. But if anyone read this. Pls give it a try. Its a solid movie.

I did say im biased, its bcuz we need to support our industry to grow. If thers an issue. Say it, politely. And find the answers together. Thats is the only way anything can grow.

But if im not biased. Its a solid 7. A fun ride i promise.
