Sri Asih

This movie makes me love bumilangit universe even more.

It is not a masterpiece. But it is a great movie and very enjoyable. There are still a lot of problems with this movie. But I'm just gonna say the most significant problems.

It felt rushed. The tempo is too fast. And quite jumpy. And the sound effect... they need to improve in that a lot more... other than that it's still acceptable to me...

now let's talk about the good things THE CGI!... its amazing... from gundala to this... it's a huge jump. 1 of the best CGI Indonesia has ever had.

I can't say the fight scene is great... it's ok? It looks so much smoother and well-choreographed. But gundala felt more power on those punches. IMO.

The way they shoot this movie is just fantastic, the camera work is great too. I wouldn't say I like the color tone. But I can accept it. Since almost every Indonesia movie looks like that

And of course. Reza rahardian acting here is fantastic. All of them are great. But sometimes it looks stiff... I like how jefri Nichol character here is very very religious... it's funny, great acting from Nichol.

And Mrs pevita. You are awesome here... I can't imagine any other celebrity as Sri asih. Great job.

I like how they manage to make everything connected. From gundala to Sri asih... they do it very well... yeah, overall it's a great movie. Recommended to watch it.

One of the better produced Indonesian movies. CGI effects were pretty well implemented, although some scenes had it better than others. Action sequences were well choreographed, with some sequences being competitive with other major Indonesian action movies (e.g. The Raid). The storyline was pretty good with even some of the plot twits are sure to have watchers taken aback. However, the pacing could be improved as it was pretty hard to follow at times, jumping from point to point. Nevertheless, it was clear the actors and producers put a lot of effort to making this a successful Indonesian movie, and the final film shows that.

Worth the hype,.. slowly burned on the first act but the character development feels a bit rushed. The writters seems to under develop the script because sometimes the jokes didn't hit and few action scenes had me rolled my eyes, Reza Rahadian prove to us he could do any genre of movies, CGI looks a bit weird at first but decent choreography though, I think the first bumilangit movie was better because it didn't add CGI into every action sequence it had, and also why does she have to always taunting amd smiling even in the middle of a fight? But like I said, just stay... It gets better on the final act.

Dragging... dragging... dragging... great fight sequence... then dragging again... that's what it feels like watching Sri Asih. If you only depend on your super hero fight sequence, you can just be a syrup commercial, because we have those type of commercials here.

I'll point out its flaws as many as I can in this review. First, inconsistent and unlikeable characters. Pevita pearce is sometimes patriotic, but in other scenes, she's like a slacking of character. Her fashion isn't believable either, and it doesn't help make people root for her.

The directing of the opening scene is woeful, was it on autopilot? Also they can make the movie more entertaining by mixing up the plot a little bit, going back and forward. Adding up a little humor wouldn't be hurtful either.

Stealing a bit from wonder woman? I agree. But again, the fight scenes aren't the main problem here.

Plot holes, or can I name them plot holes? It's more like a massive giant hole, were there even a plot to begin with? It's like "where did this character come from?", "where did that character go?", "what is the purpose of this character?", "why is the antagonist doing this?"

I always questioned the decision of making this cinematic universe because I've even seen the best studios crash and burn in attempting to build one of their own. Well if it does succeed... Give a million thanks to the ignorant viewers who support it.

The fighting choreography is incredible, it gave us "the Raid" kinda vibes tho it is not R-rated movie, the CGI is great, some scenes are as good as MCU/DCEU movies, but Alana's character development needs more depth, maybe we will see it in the next bumi langit movie or Sri Asih 2.

The Indonesian traditional culture (specifically Javanese) is extremely rich in this movie but somehow still feels like typical modern superheroes stories.

The humor isn't cringe, the dialogues feels natural eventho it's mixed of Indonesian standard language and jakartan's dialect. The Javanese accents spoken by the actors also sounds natural.
