Tenggelamnya Kapal Van der Wijck

I never read the novel before watching this,but my god i'm truly in awe of Hamka for writing this masterpiece even though it was adapted from a novel still it was so beautiful.Even from the start I was already hooked up to the artful dialogue,the different accent and culture between Minangkabau & Bugis.Herjunot Ali as Zainuddin truly a standout performer in this movie with supporting casts that were also great.Finally,what compliment great movie if not great music and soundtrack?The ship scene and the aftermath looks too simplistic but otherwise can be forgiven.Overall - this will stay in my Netflix list for a long time.

Zainuddin's words to Hayati carry immense emotional weight. You can truly sense the deep-seated feelings he has concealed for so long. In this scene, it's clear that despite still loving her, his overwhelming anger dominates his reactions. I find it hard to imagine how I would cope if someone I loved deeply not only broke a promise but also married someone else, only to return later seeking forgiveness. I can see myself reacting in a similar way to how Zainuddin does with Hayati. The truth is, words can be more painful than the sharpest knife.

Seeing Zainuddin's struggle and eventual response motivates me to channel my own pain and anger into something powerful. His journey shows that success and healing are possible, even after intense emotional wounds. He proves to everyone that it is indeed possible to rise above past hurts and achieve greatness, embodying the idea that even the deepest scars can eventually heal.

In addition to the powerful dialogue, the film's soundtrack also plays a crucial role in enhancing its impact. The music complements the emotional depth of the story, adding another layer to the film's powerful narrative.

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.

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.
