Buffalo Boys

As Indonesian, im tired with dozen Indonesia movie which topic about ghost or sentimental drama. Buffalo Boys give me some refresh, it's offering something new. The most i like in this movie is about action scene and fight. The coboy custom is interesting too, its badass. Im enjoying watched this movie. Its really worth it to watch.

After months of anticipation and high hopes (partly because of the shiny-looking-trailer), Buffalo Boys proves itself as a worthy new kind of action-tale that sets its foot right to build their own world. Buffalo Boys nailed in taking audiences into the old times, one with leather hats & boots. Having said that, it feels safe, too safe; from a generic villain boss, (two) damsel in distress, to emotionally instructive score (good ones, fortunately) with moments meant to achieve ideas bigger than what its capable to accomplished. Well at least they gives cliche a good name. Good thing that they has its moment-the fight choreography is superb with long duration, cool action scenes, and there are even some excellent explosions. Fun to watch. Don't be too angry if you guys found the drama as "too much". Can't wait to see more from this "world". The job done quite nicely, hopefully some improvements would be made in the next movie.

The story line was strong, all cast was totally great, the set and effects are awesome, and the action and fight is nearly perfect!! Great job! Will wait for the next part.

I saw strong influences of Kurosawa in this film, with overtones of Peckinpah. The mix works surprisingly well.

Unfortunately the guys in the lead roles were not really up to the task. I realize that as acting styles vary in other countries, but these guys lacked credibility. Perhaps the echoes of Kurosawa had me looking for a Mifune.

The romantic substory seemed extraneous and forced.

Splendid! The story is great, the actor/actress do a very good job, the visual, the sound effect, everything is great. Well done Mike Wiluan!

This movie combine the history of colonialism in Indonesia and the western cowboys. Although this movie is just a fantasy,the look presented is actually realistic.
