I had never seen this actor before. He's awesome and I must say a true HOTTIE and SOOO SEXY!!!! This movie has def. put him on the track and map to the road to super stardom. The end wasn't a shocker but I have to admit I wish it hadn't ended the way it did. I had a feeling something was going to happen (don't want to give the ending away to anyone who hasn't seen it). But for the kind of movie it is (storyline and all). The ending was inevitable. It was actually perfect although beyond sad!
Started watching this movie a little past half way through the movie. Hate that because as good as it was I wish I could've seen the WHOLE movie from start to end. So now I will need to buy the DVD to see it in its entirity. It was a really good movie. One reason I like Asian movies is because they are LONG! They really have excellent stories behind all the fighting so it's not just the fighting you see through out. There is a wonderful beautiful love story underlying. It's truly a MUST SEE!
I just got back from watching this movie on fillmsi.co.cc, and it is indeed a beautifully made and artistic story. Very creative and unique... definitelly worth watching
everyone who likes a good, deap story should watch it.... you can do that for free on fillmsi.co.cc...This was a wonderful eye opening film with scenes which took your breath away and others which made you shy away from the screen. ..
Very influential movie for all the audience. The real power of it is the understated acting and the doomed sense of a way of life drawing to a close. A theme visited over and over again in this genre but here given its most modern twist...most dramatic, most amusing...it has everything you need. See this film at look4movie!
It always can be better...but for me, this is more then enough to have a great time. This is just the coolest movie I have seen! It was very proffesional made, and the acting was spectacular. Searce this movie for free on 'daving info' and enjoy watching!!
This movie is totally awesome thing!! Something extra, better than most of the others. It has full of high power, many of extraordinary special effects, full of laughable moments, overall great scenario and many many another great things. But I won't say everything. See it if you are interested to find out more! It is on 'daving info'.
@neeyrose not the styles, its the movie structure that was a ong bak ripoff, i cant stand that kinda stuff, evry action sequence he set up he took right from ong bak and just used a differnent MA, i was like wth, if u have somthing unique dont use someone elses story, find your own way.
@avreeves i think u kno im right, u see he set up his action sequences identical to ongback, uses similar camera angles, the list goes on...just let it go man he copied.
@avreeves i think,we don't know exactly whether they copied or not.we r not the maker of that movie.when they did.So What!???at least,they did it well.the word "getting inspiration" is much better than "copying",i think.
if u say copying,it seems that u r too fanatic with ong bak and u dont like to see another made the same thing.im sorry,im not trying to judge u.i just shared my opinion.thanks....
@avreeves u should understand clearly before u wanna give a comment about something.
many viewers think that the story or whatever about merantau movie copied from ong bak.but u should know
that merantau is a traditional way of west sumatra ppl's men to explore another place in order to prove their maturity and it happens until now.it seems merantau copied from ong bak cause ong bak made it earlier than merantau.
@DKsaNn7 Think before you speak! It`s not even a tony jaa's copying thing. Im one of the fans of ongbak n tony jaa's martial arts movie. And it's obvious that Merantau is really different from those. Just watch the movie to catch the sense instead!
Awesome! This guy is a real expert, combatant. The movements are different from kungfu when Iko fights on containers and in the elevator. In the container fighting scenes, the silat movements appear. He also never punches, does he. He just does breaking, kicking, and throwing. In the elevator fight, I could see Silat movements are very effective as it's like fighting in a small container. But i'm no expert, just appreciate the good fight. Awesome!
@KidDynamite40: Arm spinning is natural when you don't exert power in your arms in this. The purposes are, as @dhimaschannel01. said, for readiness. It's also for speed response for different style & effective energy conserve. Typical in silat. The punch is short-distance and so are movements, making use of the opponent's energy. In kungfu, while there are short punches, you also stretch your arms a lot . My husband does silat and I do kungfu. Sorry for bad english.
It is valuable every second of your attention...so see it full of time and have fun. Totaly amusing and musical blockbuster with powerful and scary scenes that make you laugh and jump. For me, extraordinarily beautiful and more technically accomplished than any other movie in the film industry. See it at fillmsi.co.cc for free!
Thank you guys for putting Pencak Silat on the screen!!!! the down side of real silat on film is that people think its fake or its too fast and subtle for people to realize what is happening, just like real silat!!! this is a great movie and Im looking forward to "The Raid" Keep up the great work!
I saw that movie just yesterday it was so freaking awesome on fillmsi.co.cc and then at the end my dad said hey wasn't she from the first? Then I said wait ther was a first and now I am at my couch watching the first woo hoo.
Well ya but if you think about it...in more then half the movies you watch you can guess the ending right from the start...it just mainly matters from the meat of it in the middle of the movie that makes it intresting. Anyways movie is available at fillmsi.co.cc if you like.
I'm serious dont judge the movie from the trailers you have to watch it before you asume anything. give it a chance the movie was really good and nice. See it at fillmsi.co.cc. It's deff worth seeing.
Nice work! I think ill wait til this evening and watch it on the fillmsi.co.cc in all its glory if its all the same to you....cant wait! Movie looks great for me!!
Wow . . . sounds like Inception. And that was a cool film. :D Now seeing Emily again makes me think of A Series of Unfortunate Events . . . I really wish they would make a sequel for that, that film was so excelent at fillmsi.co.cc for me :)
if you all do not know martial "Silat" you just need 1. Go to Google 2. Search for "Silat". or asked to "Wikipedia", the problem was finished. hahahaha
The latest work of Gareth and Iko (Both are Dir and lead actor of MERANTAU) called "THE RAID" is out. It premiered at TIFF2011 Toronto few days ago and praised highly by critics and action fans. It's thousand times more action and more deadly than what you've seen in Merantau (or any action movies in decades). SONY has acquired the right for US market and hired Mike Shinoda of LP to retouch the musical score.
Please check "THE RAID"'s trailer here in YouTube. It's f*king awesome =D
@neoAlchemist684 and hollywood ver will be action movie for kids :D which will be complatly trash like all remakes :D becouse they want it for all audience not like orginal for small group of ppl ;>
@sempoyon82 watched the Raid at Sundnace. Best time i've ever had in a movie theatre. Hands down, it blew Tony Jaa out of the water, best action film ever.
This looks like the first Ong Bak movie all over again. "Boy leaves for the big city to find himself, gets mixed up in mob business, mob wants to kill him, he kills the mob etc etc." Gonna give it a shoot though.
Escaping her own condition through a fantasy dream world where everything is possible would probably be the best background story to create the most epic action film ever. Somehow i doubt that's gonna happen but I'm still so excited to see this on sitemoovis.co.cc tomorrow.
This look like a bad ass film it has loads of action mech armor nazies, what more do you haters want if you can't like this film then dont watch it. If you like it you can find it on sitemoovis.co.cc already.
Merantau was Best Film ActionFest International Film Festival 2010 in Asheville, North Carolina USA at 15-18 April 2010. Merantau managed to outperform the other candidates such as Hong Kong martial arts movie starring Donnie Yen, 14 Blades.
@doga201 Tony Jaa is a great acrobat and gymnist and an ok actor. Pencak SIlat is a real killing art, it doesnt look pretty and its main aim is to disable or kill... You are comparing apples to bananas...
DONT READ THIS CAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS. YOU WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE HOWEVER IF YOU DO NOT POST THIS COMMENT TO THREE VIDEOS YOU WILL DIE WITHIN TWO DAYS. NO, YOUVE ALREADY STARTED READING SO DONT STOP. THIS IS SCARY. PUT THIS ON FIVE VIDEOS IN THE NEXT 143 MIN. WHEN YOUR DONEPRESS F6 AND YOUR LOVERS NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SCARY CAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS
This was truly an amazing movie. I read that Kung Fu Cinema gave it a 4.5/5 and I was curious. It definitely deserved it and as such I highly recommend Merantau to any fan of the martial arts genre.
@RokanMonceh menjiplak karya siapa bang?...kau pikir macam malaysia ya? tak da budaya sendiri...PM kau yang sekarang pun keturunan orang bugis-indonesia, cakap tak pakai pikir, budak melayu bodoh macam kau ni mesti tahu sopan santun kepada saudara yang lebih tua macam Indonesia...
When I saw this movie, at the end a person to my right said" that was awful", then a person to my left said "that was beautiful" almost at the same time. LOL... I'd rather hang out with the person on my left. And I am seeing movie on filmsi.co.cc again, definitly.
No, it's just some good old fashioned ridicule. You can believe whatever you want, and I get to make fun of whatever I want. I think this movie is great on sitemoovie.co.cc and I loved it.
@KidDynamite40 I'm not what are you refering to by spinning his arms? but I will assume it as "kembangan", which is known as hand moves is Silat stances. they are using it a lot. I like it, I think it adds esthetics in their moves, also it acts as guard and readiness to attack.
This movie is a poor mans Ong Bak. The man character looks like Tony Jaa, dresses, and kinda fights like Tony Jaa, Ive seen these moves before and a lot better. I just found myself uninterested in the main characters purpose (whatever it was) or the cliché damsel in distress(whoever she was). if you love Ong Bak you probably won't like this movie because It'll feel like it's ripping the movie off
I don't see why so many of you guys are disappointed in the story. You honestly believe an action movie with beautiful girls in an asylum wielding katanas in a world with samurai who use machine guns is going to have a great plot line It's a movie, not an anime. :P See it on sitemovie.co.cc and enjoy!!!
You can wait "Serbuan Maut (The Raid)" by the same director who made Merantau, Gareth H Evan. Plus, the same main actor from merantau, Iko Uwais. The Raid will be out on January 2012
@DOOKITdookit merantau means going aboeard from your born place to find a better life and life experience, in the past indonesian young men going aboard to the neighbouring region (that become philipine, malaysia, singapore, southern vietnam and southern thailand in the modern world) bringing their Martial Arts (which is Silat). thats why youll find MAs of south east asian maritime mainly under the influence of indonesian silat. History lesson for your information ^^
fyi silat born in the region that now day is indonesia,period. now you all know about the merantau culture in our tribal, then youll realize that there is some MA in the SEA is actually silat, ex:kali of philipine.
Just saw this movie on NetFlix and it was horrible.. Well let me tell you what happend before you get upset. The frames were horrible with double and even trible resampling trails. Gave it a terrible soft motion blur which I hate. Who ever re-rendered this movie for playback on netflix did a terrible job. I'm going to complain about it. This trailer has way better clean, and crisp frame rate.
The movie started very nice but then started to look like Onk Bak. But I saw the whole movie :)
People need 2 make more movies like this. Showcasing more lesser-known martial arts. Whether it'll b Silat, Capoeira, Eskrima, Savate, etc. Doing so would open people's eyes 2 the vast array of fighting styles found throughout the world.
Merantau is a traditional custom of exile practiced by minangkabau people for centuries in order to emancipate themselves. Interesting custom. Anyone correct me please. Thanks...
But the tradition also practiced by other Indonesian ethnics, particularly the Javanese and Makassar/Bugis people, though not as strict as the Minangkabau's (Minangese).
The Javanese, Minangese, Makassar/Bugis people carried the tradition for centuries. They are the ancestors of Melayu people outside Indonesia.
@aa1simo93 because silat is a hindu-buddhist heritage from the hindu buddhist period of Indonesia, not the muslim period..... the muslim period of Indonesia does not give anything of international significance to Indonesia's current culture and tradition, my friend.... it's just arabic colonization of the mind.....
@sanowasi i don't likethe way you think...the director have the right to put anything he wants in the movie and no one have the rights to delete any scene but if it offences someone
@aa1simo93 yes my friend the director have cut that scene and probably put it in the extras feature in the DVD release. It's the director's decision. I'm not sure why, but from my understanding, it's because he wants to promote silat, not islamism.... further maybe because Islam is not native to Indonesia and does not reflect the silat's history.... i agree that the scene should be removed from the movie, because without that scene, the movie becomes neutral to all movie market.... :-)
@sanowasi is the cristanism born in europe or in usa ? no ;) so your point is wrong...and how does it promot islamism ? it just promot racism...in most movie there are cristians and buddist annotations..but it's alright...so why delete it when it's muslims ?
@aa1simo93 okay maybe i should put it through a different perspective.... i think it's a good decision to remove the scene, because if the director put annotations to any religion in a movie which contains violence, it will damage the religion's image by making the audience thinks that the religion promotes violence... you don't want that, do you.... :-) movie is just movie man.... let's just enjoy it and not mix with any religion! :-)
@sanowasi now i agree with you man ;) :D you're right it's better anyway...i really enjoyed the video...and i definitly think you're a very good duy ;)
@sanowasi now i agree with you man ;) you're right...it's even better and i really enjoyed the movie like you said...and i definitly think you're a great guy :)
@sanowasi Come on...the guy got martial arts....he wants to help the helpless...if he avoid violance, he would have end up dead... In life threatening situation, the act of violence is inevitable.
@lionwrath78 you might be misunderstood because we were talking about the removal of the scene where he prayed in arabic way..... :-) the violence is ok....
It was ok. I liked the fact that it was a lil more 'realistic' in the sense that if you try to fight 15 dudes, more than likely you're gonna get your ass kicked.
Good choreographed scenes, but you see its just a movie and thats not good. The whole set-up and fighting scenes reminds to much of Ong Bak, they could have done that a little bit different. But its still a good work, you did your best and thats what really matters!
for malay and indonesia...the one thing that you all have to accept even till the end of this world..is..BOTH OF YOU ARE SAME!! YOU COME FROM SAME ANCIENT!! because of time, colonialist, YOU HAD BEEN SEPERATED!! just like a taiwan and chinesse...HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND AND OPEN YOUR HEART TO ACCEPT THIS SIMILIARITY BECAUSE SIMILIARITY IS YOUR UNIQUENESS!!
DONT READ THIS CAUUSE IT REALLY WORKS YOU WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE. HOWEVER IF YOU DONT POST THIS COMMENT TO AT LEAST 3 VIDEOS YOU WILL DIE WITHIN 2 DAYS. NOW UV STARTED READIN DIS DUNT STOP THIS IS SO SCARY. SEND THIS OVER TO 5 VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES WHEN UR DONE PRESS F6 AND YOUR CRUSHES NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SO SCARY CUZ IT ACTUALLY WORK THIS REALLY WORKS
terharu..lebih banyak orang malaysia yg melontarkan komentar positif pada film ini dari pada orang indonesia sendiri, tampaknya silat lebih dihargai oleh orang malaysia dari pada orang indonesia
saya sebagai orang indonesia sangat prihatin dengan keadaan ini
de la merde quand je voie ce film j'ai l'impression de voir une parodie de jackie chan et tony jaa arrêter de faire des film pour ressemblé un autre film sérieux .
originalité on veux des nouveaux film avec d'autres caractère .
He's like Tony Jaa on crack.

@doga201 Tony Jaa is a great acrobat and gymnist and an ok actor. Pencak SIlat is a real killing art, it doesnt look pretty and its main aim is to disable or kill... You are comparing apples to bananas...

This was truly an amazing movie. I read that Kung Fu Cinema gave it a 4.5/5 and I was curious. It definitely deserved it and as such I highly recommend Merantau to any fan of the martial arts genre.

s9mbilanband 9 months ago
@KidDynamite40 I'm not what are you refering to by spinning his arms? but I will assume it as "kembangan", which is known as hand moves is Silat stances. they are using it a lot. I like it, I think it adds esthetics in their moves, also it acts as guard and readiness to attack.
dhimaschannel01 8 months ago
This movie is a poor mans Ong Bak. The man character looks like Tony Jaa, dresses, and kinda fights like Tony Jaa, Ive seen these moves before and a lot better. I just found myself uninterested in the main characters purpose (whatever it was) or the cliché damsel in distress(whoever she was). if you love Ong Bak you probably won't like this movie because It'll feel like it's ripping the movie off

I don't see why so many of you guys are disappointed in the story.

dhimaschannel01 8 months ago
@DOOKITdookit merantau means going aboeard from your born place to find a better life and life experience, in the past indonesian young men going aboard to the neighbouring region (that become philipine, malaysia, singapore, southern vietnam and southern thailand in the modern world) bringing their Martial Arts (which is Silat). thats why youll find MAs of south east asian maritime mainly under the influence of indonesian silat. History lesson for your information ^^
MrSolitude14 8 months ago
fyi silat born in the region that now day is indonesia,period. now you all know about the merantau culture in our tribal, then youll realize that there is some MA in the SEA is actually silat, ex:kali of philipine.

Just saw this movie on NetFlix and it was horrible.. Well let me tell you what happend before you get upset. The frames were horrible with double and even trible resampling trails. Gave it a terrible soft motion blur which I hate. Who ever re-rendered this movie for playback on netflix did a terrible job. I'm going to complain about it. This trailer has way better clean, and crisp frame rate.
The movie started very nice but then started to look like Onk Bak. But I saw the whole movie :)

People need 2 make more movies like this. Showcasing more lesser-known martial arts. Whether it'll b Silat, Capoeira, Eskrima, Savate, etc. Doing so would open people's eyes 2 the vast array of fighting styles found throughout the world.

Merantau is a traditional custom of exile practiced by minangkabau people for centuries in order to emancipate themselves. Interesting custom. Anyone correct me please. Thanks...
einc70 1 year ago
@einc70
That is correct.. :-)
But the tradition also practiced by other Indonesian ethnics, particularly the Javanese and Makassar/Bugis people, though not as strict as the Minangkabau's (Minangese).
The Javanese, Minangese, Makassar/Bugis people carried the tradition for centuries. They are the ancestors of Melayu people outside Indonesia.

aa1simo93 1 year ago
@aa1simo93 because silat is a hindu-buddhist heritage from the hindu buddhist period of Indonesia, not the muslim period..... the muslim period of Indonesia does not give anything of international significance to Indonesia's current culture and tradition, my friend.... it's just arabic colonization of the mind.....

@sanowasi i don't likethe way you think...the director have the right to put anything he wants in the movie and no one have the rights to delete any scene but if it offences someone
aa1simo93 1 year ago
@aa1simo93 yes my friend the director have cut that scene and probably put it in the extras feature in the DVD release. It's the director's decision. I'm not sure why, but from my understanding, it's because he wants to promote silat, not islamism.... further maybe because Islam is not native to Indonesia and does not reflect the silat's history.... i agree that the scene should be removed from the movie, because without that scene, the movie becomes neutral to all movie market.... :-)
sanowasi 1 year ago
@sanowasi is the cristanism born in europe or in usa ? no ;) so your point is wrong...and how does it promot islamism ? it just promot racism...in most movie there are cristians and buddist annotations..but it's alright...so why delete it when it's muslims ?
aa1simo93 1 year ago
@aa1simo93 okay maybe i should put it through a different perspective.... i think it's a good decision to remove the scene, because if the director put annotations to any religion in a movie which contains violence, it will damage the religion's image by making the audience thinks that the religion promotes violence... you don't want that, do you.... :-) movie is just movie man.... let's just enjoy it and not mix with any religion! :-)
