Tenggelamnya Kapal Van der Wijck

The diction used in this film is very good, even though I don't understand the Minangkabau or Padang language, I still understand what it means.

This story tell the difference between culture and religions knowledge, does the culture always be a priority? This story is to tell how Adat Minangkabau is conducted within the ethnic. Minang is the fraction of the Malay ethnic besides Jawa and else. Zainuddin sentences for Hayati is Masterpiece. It should be full rated because of the sentences only.

Adapted from the novel of the same name, it tells the story of the love between Hayati, Zainuddin and Aziz who have different social settings. Their love for each other led to the tragedy of the sinking of Van Der Wijck's sailing ship.

When I first saw it, I felt that this movie has the same story as the Titanic movie. However, this film has a different story even though it features a scene of a ship sinking. The sinking of Van Den Wijck's ship has its own flavor in the storyline. Centered on the old era of Indonesia with a typical Malay feel, this film is very slick and beautiful. Featuring a story that is thick with customs and culture. Combined with dialogue that uses accents and Malay language. Supported by outstanding performances from Pevita Pearce, Herjunot Ali and Reza Rahardian. This film deserves to be the best drama film in Indonesia. The acting performance is very profound and full of emotions. Also with a very good story conflict which is able to give a good impression in seeing their love story. The film is able to invite the audience to feel and be part of this film. If you look at the title of this film, indeed the end of the tragedy of the ship's fall becomes an ending that fits with. But for me, the tragedy of the ship's fall seemed to be an ending that didn't feel right to perform. As if it became a moving and sad ending. But for me, it's not an ending to their love story problem.

One thing I must say The best of Indonesia Movie ever made

Thanks to the great storyline from Ustad Hamka plus the spectacular emotional over- flows Actor and Actresses, the movie is such a great masterpiece that's gonna be talked about for years to come..

Took 5 years of preparation and 2 years of script writing comes with an almost 3 hours extended version that Worth each and every second of its motion and gestures.

Speaking from a Christian Chinese Indonesian perspective who fancies western movies and exposed to Western cultures, this movie is much better than Nicholas Sparks' love birds.

The morale of the story teaches viewers many elements of life especially Tolerance, love, Sacrifice, Perseverance, and Being Religious.

The only let down was the sinking of ship scene. Could have been a 10 out of 10

A must see movie indeed enjoy!!

This is a great love story. Shown in classic way. Similar to the camera of greatest Hollywood movies.
