The Exocet

A gritty drama displaying the raw difficulties of life in Jakarta, with aspects of philosophical thought weaved in through the intriguing character interactions.

The film is a mildly thought provoking intrigue piece and portrait of life as opposed to a groundbreaking masterpiece. However, that is the intent of the film and it achieves its aim strongly.

The gritty nature is supported by the deliberate and effective style of camera angle and music, as well as the flawed nature of all the characters.

The film seems relatively short when watched and is recommended for an interest / educational watch.
