Pemburu di Manchester Biru

It starts with a terrible script. Too many unnecessary plots and too many cliches. Exaggerating unimportant conflicts. Then, it is followed by bad directing. Adipati Dolken should be one of the best actors, but in this movie, he often gives wrong expressions.

The Dop supposedly bears an ICS title, but the quality of the pictures shows otherwise. Too many wrongs and, inconsistent white balance, bad lighting setup.

And last, the editing is choppy and does not have the right rhythm.

Awkward acting, terrible script and plot, sludgy pacing, choppy editing, and just downright irritating characters do nothing but render 'Pemburu di Manchester Biru' laughable. This film has nothing to offer.

Felt like a very personal, honest and heartfelt loveletter to family, friends and football.

As an British-Indonesian in London, this felt like a very rare special piece of Diaspora/cross-continental storytelling which speaks to the familiar experience of being in the liminal space between being accepted and rejected , Defo relate to Hanif because im also always questioning what it means to be home or away - and where i am meant to be in life.

Don't know all the answers, but the film makes me want to talk to my family and friends more and ask them more questions xx also even tho im not a footie fan it kinda makes me wanna get into it hehe xxxxx.

There isn't much positive to say about this film. The acting may be considered bad, but the script is downright awful. I would say that 95% of the film is depressing to watch. There is almost no character development for the lead character. That prevents me or any audience member to garner any sympathy for the lead character. You couldn't write a worst character even if I was

Also, the main character works for Manchester City Football Club. He works in Manchester at the Ethiad Stadium. There is one scene, where the main character is talking to some higher up at the club at supposedly the Ethiad Stadium. In the background, you can clearly see QPR written in the seats. The scene is clearly taking place at Loftus Road in London, not the Ethiad Stadium in Manchester. To top it all off, they show images of the adverts in the stadium and there are adverts promoting local London businesses. This is just plain lazy filmmaking and editing with basic errors. Don't get me started on the actor who looks nothing like Manuel Pellegrini and the City dressing room scene with a dressing room that looks like a dressing room for a non-league club, not the splendid dressing room that City have.

The only positive to the film are the scenes with the main character's father. After watching the film, I wish the film was about the dad. He was the only interesting character.
