This Indonesian film was their attempt at a superhero film, and although it had some good qualities, it wasn't even close to achieving its goal.
It felt like a teeny-bopper film with over-the top acting on the 'fashion' dude, and stale performances that struggled to convince. Add ridiculous long fight scenes poorly choreographed and a silly story to match. The directing and cinematography were decent - for a B grade film, but the writing/screenplay was terrible with cliches, plot issues and dragged out scenes.
By the quarter way mark, I had to fast forward scenes as I was getting bored, then midpoint into the movie I just gave up.
It's a very generous 5/10 from me, only taking into account it's a no-name actors Indo B-grade film that had some decent qualities.

A comic book movie done on a low budget. Despite the low budget, there is actually reasonable character development. Yes it is a bit generic, but most super hero movies are. The special effects are horrendous, but the martial arts scenes are actually quite good. Asian movies have a tendency to have a certain style and this one is no exception. A few of the action scenes border on being just stupid (police with weapons and not one fires at the bad guys). But for the most part the movie is enjoyable.
Spectacular action movie with a beautiful female action lead. If this were a US movie, it would be highly rated. Story is simple and copied from Kick-Ass. Cool bad guys like in Batman movies.
Very cutely done but not perfect. Dubbed into English which I think was a plus here. Valentine herself did a great job in her moves. All in all I did find it entertaining. Worth to see if you do not expect anything.
Ths is an indonesian take on the ''homebrewed'' superhero -genre, like batman and kickass consepts, but with a more modest financial budget.
the film is pretty good, it has just a little bit of vfx and cgi, so the majority of the act are real, and merely well coreographed action, and fights on bare hands alla muytai style. the actors are doing a good job, and makes this movie a better story than the script would have done ,without. the screenplay cant be more than 4 A4 sized pages, so its easy to phatom the point of the story.
if you are a superfanatic on the genre, dont bother watch this, for the rest of us curious gangsters of the sofaseat, can have a view, because the grumpy old man found this refreshing and well acted.

- TriviaValentine is a 2016 Indonesian action film based on Sarjono Sutrisno, Aswin MC Siregar & Ian Waryanto, Skylar Comics character Valentine.
- GoofsTerrible editing on the big chase scene starting around 50mminutes. The minibus is variably ahead of and behind police cars in the sequence with no consistency. They take a fork different from Shadow's without losing ground moments later. Police are left in the dust for one shot but right behind Shadow in the next.
