My Comment:
I didn't expect this movie would be good, and that's true. It is boring. The story was pretty good though, the past haunts you when you've already taken the big step. But the idea of each scene is ordinary, nothing special. It's only 90 minutes but it felt like hours. Overall, nahh, it's not good.

IMDb Rating: 7.1 / 10

My Comment
This movie is one of indonesian movies that is really brave to describe the main issue in its country. I hope the release of this movie can make changes on "people"'s perspective on religion, race, status, etc. This movie was a breakthrough, however I didn't feel excited and it's kinda plain, the actors were just okay not very wonderful, I think that the climax seemed to be exaggerated, but, the good news is I cried (Some scenes were very touching). Overall it was okay.

My Rating: 6 / 10
