“You speak any Arabic?“
“Yeah. Assalamualaikum.”
My laugh burst for a couple of minutes only because of watching that scene🤣
Havoc ini punya cerita yang kurang engaging dan bagaimana dia berjalan pun kerasa lumayan draggy... Of course yang bikin betah nonton (dan bisa bikin ngasih rating 4 LOL) adalah action sequence-nya, walau emang ga se-brutal dan gaakan bisa se-revolusioner duology The Raid.
Udah nonton beberapa film dengan level gore yang setara dengan Pengepungan di Bukit Duri, tapi so far belum ada yang bisa se-triggering ini. Semua adegan feels so real, so depressing and of course so traumatizing even though for me yang ga punya darah Chindo samsek. Sinting. Indonesia, tolong kamu baik-baik aja ya, please. At least, jangan biarkan apa yang tersaji di film ini benar-benar terjadi 2 tahun kemudian. As a gore movie lover, kali ini resmi saya nyatakan, saya menyerah 🏳️
Woah, I love the wide range of stories that this 3.5-hour movie gave. Even though the second act is kinda boring and nearly made me fall asleep, so I had to rewind some scenes, LOL.
Shout out to the VFX team. They successfully made me believe when the main trio—played by the same 1940s-born actor from the beginning—is younger than their real age or even looks older when the story develops.
It's the second Tarantino movie I watched and I love how it gave another POV for some scenes! Also, kudos to the scriptwriters' intelligence for fabricating the Bible verse like this:
Ezekiel 25:17 (Pulp Fiction Version)
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for…
Sekuel yang lebih bloody, berdurasi lebih panjang dan tentunya lebih padet! Puas banget selama 2 jam 30 menit nyaksiin adegan bacok-bacokan penuh tumpah darah yang super-duper intens dan thrilling. Apalagi dibantu dengan style sinematografi yang tak lagi seperti film pertamanya, sehingga (menurutku) menghasilkan pengalaman menonton yang jauh lebih mengesankan. Acting Iko Uwais pun mengalami peningkatan amat pesat dibandingkan dengan di film pertamanya.
