13 Bom di Jakarta

13 Bombs is a film that has great potential. The themes that this film explores include terrorism, revenge and betrayal. The story of this film is very generic, like most blockbuster action films. In this film, apart from terrorism, the main topic is also a lot about the crypto world in Indonesia, but for some reason every time there is a scene that discusses cryptocurrency or the company, it feels like they are advertising it. The action presented here is really good, very exciting, and the feel is close to action films out there. The plot twist in this film is also good, it really makes the audience confused. As for the characters, for some reason the two characters who are founders of the crypto company here feel too OP, as if they can do everything they are told, and the antagonist is good, their motivations are quite acceptable. In terms of cinematography, it's actually good, but when there's a fight scene, the camera movements seem a little too over, and it's quite dizzying but fun, and there's a scene at the end that's really unnecessary, a waste of time. Some of the explosion effects are really good but some still look fake. The production design is really great. The music score is just like action films in general. The acting is all okay, but Rio Dewanto's acting as the antagonist is really nice, and also kinda annoying. Overall, this is a good film but it could have been better.

They made a wonderful film.. I actually seen only few Indonesian movies so far especially action genre movies.

Its quite good and few action sequences are feel little bit weird am typically mentioning gun fights scene..its out of sync with each ends other then the movie is so good choice for one time watchable. There actors and actress in the movie good not good as Hollywood but this guys done it well.

Only one twist is in the flim.

Fist fights are good need to improve lot but they made a tough movie.

In few years they become tougher

One time watchable.

Good time pass.

A mass Entertaining.

Sometimes, everyone just needs a mindless action movie, grab a giant bucket of popcorn, and watch things blow up-now is one of those times. 13 Bombs di Jakarta is a huge spectacle with gut-punching excitement. The production value is top-notch, featuring impressive sets, props, costumes, solid special effects, and decent action choreography. The music score is also well done. As for originality in the script? Not so much. The plot doesn't offer anything new; it feels like a mix of Hollywood blockbuster clichés-somewhat ridiculous, mostly eye-popping, and a touch sentimental. The director delivers on action, explosions, wise-cracking heroes, and badass villains. The action scenes are well-executed with good pacing and thrills. If you're willing to check your brain at the door, this movie makes your time and money worthwhile. If you're after tons of explosions, shootouts, fires, and car chases, this film is right up your alley.

13 Bom di Jakarta is a thriller action film that successfully builds tension from start to finish. With the premise of 13 bombs set to explode every eight hours, the movie delivers heart-pounding action that keeps viewers on edge.

Director Angga Dwimas Sasongko crafts the story with a fast-paced rhythm and intense action sequences. The use of practical effects and dynamic cinematography enhances the suspense. Actors like Rio Dewanto and Ardhito Pramono deliver solid performances, making each character feel real.

Although some plot points are predictable, the film's strong execution and gripping atmosphere keep it engaging. With high-quality action and convincing visuals, 13 Bom di Jakarta is a must-watch for thriller fans.

I'm a fan of a good, detailed and compelling action movie, this one has hit the mark for me.

1. Indonesian action films has been improved SO MUCH in the last few years, i know it all started from The Raid, which was technically still directed by a western director, but now this movie is directed by a local and the production, set pieces, and environment looks alive, detailed and functional, the props are realistic, the guns looks great (noticed some flashy new SIG MCX Virtuses there)

2. The VFX are nice, much better than previous indo films, so i'm quite impressed with the quality, it doesnt look out of place and is well blended with the environment, noticed some practical effects as well

3. I like the new bitcoin aspect and the two startup founders, it makes the dynamic more unique and add additional tension to the usual Good Cop and Bad Cop shenanigans.

Though i have to say several drawbacks:

1. The sound, the dialogues are nicely mixed with the ambience and music, however the gun sounds leave much to be desired, it lacked the environmental interaction usually heard with gunshots, like indoor and outdoor should sound different, it lacked the tail and echo while indoor, and some of the fighting sounds are not that good

2. Firearms technique, i noticed how Arok reloaded his AR, he tapped the bolt catch and there's a sound of bolt releasing, but i saw the bolt didnt move, rather, it stayed closed the whole time instead of releasing.

3. The camerawork during fighting looks a bit too close, the way we can't see all the details from the fight.
