Remove the 2-on-1 fight, and there's absolutely nothing in this movie. No acting, no real plot, no memorable character -- just a bunch of random fist fights. There was a time for these kinds of movies 20 years ago - but not today.
sharei felt this was martial arts for the new generation, because films back then werent as brutal as they are now. i do agree that without all the fighting and violence there is nothing else to this film.
shareRubbish. What about the shoot-out that ends with the refrigerator exploding and Bowo injured? What about the really tense scene where Rama and Bowo hide behind a wall and are almost killed by the machete gang leader? What about the fight with the machete gang? What about the fight between Jaka and Mad Dog? Those are all great scenes. If you went in expecting an intricate storyline and complex plot, it's your own mistake, so don't blame the movie for your own shortcomings. If you want an action movie with a plot... I don't know, watch The Raid 2.
sharePlease elaborate what was different 20 years ago so that these kind of movies were okay.
I'd rather have an action movie with well executed martial scenes one after another than an action movie with 30 minutes of fights and 60 minutes of generic filler scenes that will skip anyway (if not upon first viewing, then on subsequent ones)
You must jerk off to Ingmar Bergman films.
shareThis was just an ok movie 6/10
No real plot, and the action was a bit unrealistic at times. If you are going to make a movie that relies almost 100% on action and not much else, the action scenes better be really spectacular.
Where did I put my troll button?
shareOne of the best movies if seen, i mean everything was not rly cliche.
I was speechless how good this movie was, i just picked it and downloaden it after i heard a bit about it.
