4.0 out of 5 stars more than just scenery, September 7, 2003

This review is from: Jakarta (Amazon.com Exclusive) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

this is a twisted tale of love and death, bloody violence and action from the beginning to the end and if you like anything Indo then it gives you a view of the streets of Jakarta in the early 1980s. So much of Indonesian art and music never make it to the states and I personally was thrilled to see this movie. oh and to all the guys out there the main actress is a real asian tiger! but with perfect english! I wish I were Christoper Noth, so lucky!

The movie theme is old and out-dated, but then again so is the movie. The story is bland, the love interests boring, and the sound very poor. However, the scenery and costumes were colorful and interesting, and the animals fun to watch. This movie should probably be placed at the bottom of movies to re-watch, or relegated to the college class entitled "The History and Improvement of the Motion Picture."

Jakarta has good visual as well as good sound. This a fast paced action picture of nonstop action. Loaded with fights, gun battles, car chases and even a little romance along the way. Anyone who likes "take-me-for-a-ride" movies is sure to love this one.
