At first, looking at the way the managed the poster and all..I thought this would just be another copy-cat movie (well, we had to admit, neighboring countries cinema are way earlier in successfully creating such motion pictures)
But...
All the fighting scheme, supporting casts, location, technicalities...this movie is surely one helluva fresh breeze into Indonesian Cinema.
Last night, I was literally stunned and amazed by especially the actions and plot this movie had brought.
The spirit of Nationalism, Humanism and Martial Artistry is carried out at its best!!
Can't believe my own two hands when I clapped them together with the whole theater last night...
Surely, one step toward a better cinema for Indonesia..
Bravo!!
