Buffalo Boys

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.

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.

Ok so some of the plot is predictable and I would prefer not to have to read subtitles but this is a very interesting and enjoyable movie. Everyone has an opinion but some of the narrow-minded, ignorant, one star ratings on here are ridiculous. Is it an American movie? No of course not but it is worth watching.
