Gundala Movie Review

Hoi, Maders! Wie is je superheld? Ik zeg, GUNDALA! Finally Indonesia released a local superhero movie. Gundala is like the first avenger. If Avengers belong to Marvel Cinematic Universe, Gundala belongs to BumiLangit Cinematic Universe (BCU). Until 2025, there will be a local superhero movie at cinema from BCU. Ik ben zo blij!

I’d like to discuss about Gundala and his specialty. The name of Gundala is Sancaka. In this movie, the actor being Sancaka is Abimana Arsatya. OMG he’s really a hot daddy! I like his posture and his handsome face. By the way, Sancaka gets his power from the lightning. In fact, Sancaka feels afraid of lightning because it can strike him anywhere. When he knows that he becomes powerful from the lightning, he creates a suit to improve his ability.

What makes me sad is the hard life of Sancaka since he was a little boy. His father is dead because of being stabbed. His mother leaves him alone at home in order to seek for a job. His mother promises to leave only one day but she leaves him a few weeks. Sancaka gets ill and starving. He leaves home and survive.

In Gundala, political issue is the topic. It deals with the government and the demonstration. Sancaka used to mind his own business but he can’t stand of other people’s suffering. He starts helping his surrounding. The reason why Gundala has a special suit is just like other superheroes, he doesn’t want to reveal his identity.

There are two scenes becoming my favorite of all. The first one is when Sancana gets hurt. Merpati, his girlfriend wanna be, cures his wound on the left side of his stomach. You know what? The focus of the camera is only on Sancaka’s stomach. I can see it clearly. OMG! Hahaha. Sexy to the max. The second one: I love it when Sancaka hugs a crying (fat and old) woman when the market is being burned. She feels sad because her goods are burned. Sancaka protects her when she is about to go to the inside of the market. I also want his hug. Gosh!

Well, I think that’s all. Gundala is a super awesome Indonesian superhero movie. YOU MUST WATCH IT especially for all Indonesians nationally. We must be proud of this movie. We have our own superheroes. You can’t say it’s a copy paste. BIG NO! This is our local heroes that have local values. 

Dank je wel. Tot ziens!
