Not Just A Fighting Movie
1 February 2021
At first I thought that this film would only tell about the world of gangsters and fights, but after arriving at the third part of the film, I finally realized that fighting is not the main point of the entire film trilogy. Brotherhood and friendship, the courage to sacrifice in order to protect the area where they live using various methods that they know, can, and believe.

The film trilogy is also about growing up through the choices and problems that come and go. I think the fight scenes are just the way that the director and scriptwriter used to convey the true essence of the stories in this film trilogy. Good movie.

Simple Story, Not Too Much Fighting Scene
28 January 2021
The story of this film is quite simple, the poor work for the rich. Rich people can get rich because it turns out that they are using a clean business to hide a real business that is dirty but makes more money. The rich use wealth and connections to silence and oppress the poor.

Then appeared a poor man who had great martial skills and dared to fight because he wanted to seek justice for his slain comrades.

Bruce who plays Cheng Chao-an displays his great martial arts skills, but the other actors who are his opponents in the film seem to lack good martial arts skills and their acting is not go, so Bruce looks too great for them, which makes the story in the film less realistic.

One of the Best War Movie I Love
24 January 2021
Besides Black Hawk Down, this is a war film that I love to watch. As I remember it, I watch it two times. I like the war scene, the story, and of course the camera angle that captures every scene very well. Good film !

Entertaining and Brilliant
4 August 2020
I like Kim Da-mi acting as Koo Ja-yoon. Although in appearance in the film she looks frail but behind it she was able to portray a character who has great strength and ability. She is able to act as a character who looks innocent but on the other hand is able to calmly and expressionlessly when killing people. Overall I like the story of this film and also the casts. Good movie to watch !

Under my expectation
20 June 2020
A movie with poker theme, so I think it would be interesting, like watching WSOP tournament, but the poker itself only maybe around 20 percent of the movie. The poker tournament is not like a poker tournament in this movie. If you hope to watch a poker movie like watching WSOP tournament, don't watch this movie. The dramatic scene it too much compared to the poker scene.

Lessons of Life
18 May 2020
Through this movie, we can learns about the life of the poor and immigrant workers in South Korea. Even though South Korea in advanced in many aspects, especially technologies and K-Pop, but in reality there are still poor citizens in the country who must still struggle to eat, have good home, and good education for the future. The film also tries to depict the lives of immigrant workers and their problems when they works in South Korea. Yoo Ah-In acting is good. He is able to portray a child from multi-ethnic family. Kang Byul role as Yoon-ha is also good. She looks simple but beautiful and smart in this film. Good to watch film if we want to know the other side of life in South Korean.

Quite Simple Story and Entertaining
10 May 2020
Another Indonesian movie with culinary theme and the only movie where foods in the movie can also be tasted in the real world (outside the movie) like Nasi Goreng Aruna, etc. Another movie where Dian Sastro and Nicholas Saputra play together again in the same movie after Ada Apa Dengan Cinta ? Dian Sastro still beautiful with simple make up. A movie with good combination of stories between foods, friendship, works, love, and a bit comedy. Good movie to watch and quite entertaining especially Dian Sastro as Aruna with her innocence face. Watch this movie 2 times.

Hacked (II) (2020)

Too Good To Be True Hacking Movie
10 May 2020
I found this movie when I googling movies about hacker or hacking. In some early scenes, I think this is will be a good hacker and/or hacking movie. But when it comes to Vivek that have so much money for just a 19 years old boy, so he can rent a building and build computer systems so he can monitor every Sameera's activities in any locations, I started thinking the story is too good to be true. It's almost impossible for someone to monitor someone else in any locations like what Vivek does. Vivek is too 'almighty' in this movie

Still Good to Watch, Funny, but Nothing Special
18 March 2019
This movie is still good to watch, the comedy parts is quite funny, though nothing special with the story. At the beginning the story seems to be an interesting story, but getting to the end the movie the story solely focus on the mystical snake and the women he love. The mystical snake and the women finally exchange position, she refused to exchange position and she want him to be a good man.

21 Is Better I Think
25 December 2018
Before watch this movie, I have 21 another version of this movie. In my opinion I still love 21 movie. I think 21 is better in many aspects than this movie, especially in movie's plot, actors and actresses, etc. Overall I believe that 21 movie is better than movie. But this movie is also another good option for gambling movie.

Touching, Inspiring, and Entertaining
4 September 2018
Donnie Yen did his best in this movie. His charisma, wisdom, kung fu skills are very dazzling and be the main and also most important parts in the movie. I also very inspired with his wisdom he shares in the movie to his students, so he can inspires his students to do their best in life. Fighting parts not too much, but still be the important parts also in this movie. Donnie's fighting skills are really really awesome and spectacular. Good to watch to get the inspiration for parents to educate their children. Really entertaining and the humour parts also good.

Love the fighting scene
1 September 2018
I have watch this movie on the opening day in Indonesia. Blend of drama and action. What I remember the most of this movie is it fighting scene. Iko and other actors have great acting when they're fighting, but in some scenes, the fighting is resemble the fighting scene of The Raid movie. So, when I watch some fighting scenes is like I watch The Raid in this movie. Maybe because of the director is inspired by Iko's fight and acting in the 'The Raid' movie.
