Okay, the downside is... no Kitamura Kazuki :( But yappari Mr. Endo Ken'ichi kakkoiii nee *v* No wonder Takuya is a fan, haha~ I hope Takuya watch this movie later. I thought the Japanese cast would only make a cameo appearance, but apparently they're a part of the story's focus. Awesome! But the Japanese cast only shot their scenes for a week in Jakarta, out of the total 7 months shooting of this movie?? O_o Oh well, we'll reveal the mystery in March.
But everything else looks great!! The car stuff looks awesome. The drama seems to be heart-wrenching and thank god, Iko Uwais' acting improved. Arifin Putra and Oka Antara looks really cool, though they're not martial artists. But well, of course we need more eye-catching guys who can act in this movie. This teaser seem to emphasize more to the drama, so we see less Yayan, Cecep and the baseball bat guy, who are true martial artists. I wanted to see some pencak silat action in this trailer, but apparently Gareth Evans didn't want to reveal any craziness from the movie in the trailer... just yet.
The classic score used in this trailer... while awesome (I love classic scores) but made this movie looks like a pure gangster movie rather than a martial arts action movie.
But I have faith in Gareth Evans' directing and the Merantau production team. Really can't wait till March 2014!^o^
