Battle of Surabaya Audience Reviews

Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
ThiefHott Too much of everything
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
euroasiangenetic It's amazing how Indonesia movies has become stronger since the Raid movies, Indonesia has now become the elite league together with Hollywood, Japan, Russia, Hong Kong and sometimes China.November 10th is probably the best war movie ever despite the 2d animation, the plot is shown why war is bad and why it's the best is because it doesn't portray anyone as an enemy just the war.The story is about two young kids, a boy name Muusa and a girl name Yuuna. Muusa is a mail delivery boy who delivers secrets code to different province in Indonesia during the Dutch, Japanese, and British occupation. On his way he has to avoid the soldiers or if he get caught there could be complications for his country. But his world turns upside down when he loses friends and war breaks out, hell on earth has begun.What I love about this movie is that they manage portray war as unnecessary and an evil choice, and nobody is an enemy, just the war itself, for instance when the British soldiers occupied Indonesia, we see the British General as a cold killer but then we learn his tragic story caused by war, same with a Japanese diplomat, a Dutch landlords and even some Ninjas with tragic story, most war story even when they show civilian tragic they all seem to focus on one soldier group as the enemy, but here it's different, it really show the war I see bad and we all are the victims and should learn there is no use in war. If Disney would make a war movie, its this one.
housebad TBH, If you just want to appreciate the movie because of Indonesia, just watch it and highly recommended "JUST ENJOY THE MOVIE!". But, if you want good Action, Adventure movie (as the genre said), you will be disappointed. Only CGI and 'fun factors' that you can enjoy 100%. But for the story? You can't expect too much from 'NEWBIE' director and writers.The staffs must be thanked to the watchers who knows the history about that year events especially the 'real' Battle of Surabaya incident itself, so at least they can tell something like "hmm.. this event, I know this", "hmm.. that soldier, I read about him".(1) This is just big filler, I was expecting, "is this a spin- off/side-story of 'Battle of Surabaya'?". (2) They make the existence of "Kipas Hitam" is pretty useless. (3) The treats given to Musa are so freaking low, not explain to much "why does Kipas Hitam want him?". I don't see anything that makes Musa is a big treat for "Kipas Hitam" there. (4) Some deaths are unreasonable, you never get the feeling when they passed away. (darn, except the Yunma's death! She dead for nothing, sacrifice her life for Musa? For what reason? Come on, she is a good girl! Don't waste her life even on movie!) The genre was 80% wrong, "Action, Adventure", but the actions are always *....* it should be "Drama, Comedy". Well, people say that "this is the start for Indonesia animation". Except they are really serious in this industry, they can 'gambling' make the 24 episodes TV series for this half- baked movie.
tatiana Frida i love and hate this movie. I mean, this movie talk about Indonesia (my country). I left the movie theater a little underwhelmed. the plot and storyboard is decent. The point is, this film has so many points, that ironically, it has no point at all. sometimes the story was just off and this movie try too hard to be funny. i don't know what's wrong w/ me but some jokes so lame. some scenes exceeding comedy awkwardness level. Nothing is perfect, I mean I get it this movie is Indonesia's product. so yeah this is my love and hate opinion about this movie. Good luck w/ your next project. PS : I liked it, but didn't love it as much as i love other animation moviePS again : AND GUYS PLS BE HONEST W/ YOUR REVIEW AND RATING :)
Mudha Dan Pingki 1) 0 point for storyline, 2) 0 point for directing, 3) 0 point for screenplay, 4) 0 point for continuity, 5) 0 point for animating, 6) 0 point for casting, 7) 0 point for dubbing, 8) +1 point for sfx, 9) +1 point for graphics, 10) +1 point for technology supporting tools, & 11/bonus) +1 bonus point for respect. Here, i tried to review this movie as honest as possible..so this is it. I cannot pretend just because this one was made by my country persons. Well I'm not a big fan of film industrial politics in Indonesia anyway, since everything could be boosted with money here. Even we can buy honor, and reputation also. Last words, just watch on your own..and be honest on rating for our good. Thanks
