Plus: super great fighting choreography, good visual effect, beautiful scenery views, good and steady camera placement, but sometimes it got too close.
Minus: lack of the acting skills for the young actors; you can really see the different level between senior actors like lukman sardi, dwi sasono, yayan ruhiyan and the youngsters, lack of character development, lack of background story of the main villain (the sinetron version was sooo much better). poor line selection especially wiro's dialogue (it feels so cringey because he spoke like modern people while the rest of the cast using formal language. Again, the dialogue in sinetron version win by far). Some of the intended comedy can't be delivered successfully. Wiro sableng was supposed to be an action comedy, so they should do the comedy and characterization more wholeheartedly. Overall, it was an Okay movie. If the producers want to make the sequels, the most important thing is to work on the acting skills.
As a reader of the novel and following his TV series, of course I am very much waiting for the presence of this Wiro Sableng film to be released. This film in my opinion has succeeded in elevating the Indonesian film industry to a higher level by making higher standards. With the help of 21 Century Fox, it's no wonder that this film has a classy taste. Cinematography, action action or choreography, music score. Everything is cool. But there are indeed some things that should make this film even better. Like the story plot that is less neat, the characters that need to be improved, and the colossal impression that feels less grand. Hopefully it's better in the sequel later.
First, I was expecting this movie to be 'friendly' to those who don't know about Wiro Sableng story at all. Or at least, make the actions great!
But HOLLY MOLY. The truth is (from my perspective), I couldn't enjoy this movie since the beginning. I must say the story was very very very bad. Too many 'untold' characters, just like the Justice League.
The VFXs were great (so proud), BUT the way they deliver the story ruined it all.
Sorry Lifelike films. You guys are great, but not for this one.
But I'm still waiting for the next sequel! Learn the failures from this film and return with some unpredictable badass Hollywood class stories :)!

For some people who watched the series in the past, this movie is very nostalgic
we can see this film made with such great effort,
acting the from the casts is really amazing especially yayan ruhian, ruth marini and vino bastian itself as crazy wiro
some effects may not be perfect, but this is already very good
it's just that this film has several weaknesses, including: too many characters but not deepened, jokes that are sometimes not hit, I hope the sequel can be made even better
