Qodrat

Hi. I'm Chris, and I'm an old white dude that likes horror movies.

I caught this on a whim on Amazon and was pleasantly surprised. There's a fair amount going on here. Moral quandary, the clergy and power, all done in a very space yet entertaining. The jump scares are reasonably well done, there's some solid CGI and the addition of martial arts that comes here and there a bit out of nowhere was, to be honest, kinda cool. Not second rate stuff, either.

I've seen some remarks about accuracy to the Islamic faith and - seriously? It's an exorcism movie. As a theologian I'd love to sit down with you and your favourite Christian exorcism movie and I'll have some notes. You will have to wait for me to stop laughing, however.

It gives a stark, grim, taut view of the path of an exorcist and the corruption of faith. If you like horror flicks and possession movies in particular I can safely recommend this really interesting example of Indonesian Horror films.

I don't watch many Indo horror film and it was pretty damn scary to me. It was basic and slow at start but it picked it pace quickly.

The fighting scenes were really on a different level. The sudden random martial art reminded me of IP man or any other martial art movie (lol) but in a very good way of course.

Loved the acting, place and the thrill it brought. One thing I specially loved was the relevance in islamic context. The reality of possession and how to deal with such being was very spot on.

There were times I had goosebumps. I enjoyed the story. Even though I loved the movie, the ending was very basic .

BUT REST ASSURED, THIS MOVIE WILL DEFINITELY GIVE YOU THE HORROR YOU WANT. (you can watch it with family)

This film deserves a higher rating.

Great special effects.

Great cinematography.

Great story.

Great action.

Great scares.

It was a brilliant film to watch. I'm not even Indonesian. But I am Muslim. And I do like Indonesian horror. And this film is right up there with the best... In my top 3 indonesian horrors. Definitely.

It has it all.

Scenes that make you scared, scenes that make you smile. Scenes that make you angry with what you're witnessing and Scenes that make you cry. It really does dig up emotions and you feel for the characters. Feel their pain and their happiness.

It looked really good too. It probably has a higher budget in guessing but I haven't checked. Makeup was brilliant. So we're the special effects.

It was a pleasure to watch. And I will be recommending it to my friends and family.

What is happening with asian movies? Nothing original anymore. The plot, the acting, the make up, even the music seemed to be plainly plagiarised from the western horror movies such as 'the nun', 'exorcism of god' and 'the exorcist'. The only difference, it was fitted with things familiar in Islam such as 'syahadah' & of course, verses from Quran to make the movie looks 'asian' or 'islamic'.

I'll watch the movie if it was played free... But don't expect me to go to cinema and spent several bucks on the movie.

Acting was good i guess. But Qodrat appearance as an ustadz was not appealing. Overall i give this movie a score of 5.

First of all, it's a terrible film because it's completely confusing whether it's an action movie or a horror. The character development is a BIG ZERO, and the storyline is nothing special, honestly, you'll get bored. Sure, you might enjoy it if you haven't seen any good horror movies, but it's nowhere near the level of others in the genre.

I know it deserves more than 1 star because no movie is that bad every film has something good, even if I didn't like it. But I'm giving it 1 star because how on earth does it have more than 6 stars? Come on, it's below 3 for sure.

Watch it if you want to waste your time. It completely ruined our movie night. It's pure garbage.
