Disturbing yet enthralling

I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

3 : Alif, Lam, Mim is a really interesting, and exciting action movie that came in the end of 2015 (if i do not mistaken). The movie shows a lot of interesting side of between conflict, love, and conspiracy. But my main focus is the great action! Well, there's a lot of decent fight scene from star to finish, but not necessarily non-stop. If you are a huge fan of fighting type of action flick, go watch this movie ASAP. I'll say that much. The story and is pretty solid, with some plot twist. Not forgot to mention the acting quality.Since this movie set time in the future Indonesia, my only "Negative" comment for this movie is probably the CGI effect that still looks too clean and a bit cartoonist. Perhaps in the future film (which i think there will be a 2nd one) they will improve it's CGI effect a little more. But most of you probably don't really care about that, including myself. That's why i still enjoy this movie from start to finish.

Very interesting view about dystopia Indonesia, where liberation become new tyrant. I really like how this movie shows that good people is not just about dress, environment, and religion, but it is the matter of choices she/he take, and motivations.I feel that the movie says deep down we are all fundamentalist, and to what value/belief we attach our fundamentalism define who we are and how we perceive others.Religion and Government on opposition is very realistic setting if you living in Indonesia like i do, that may not make sense for people that come from place where secularism already become norm. And for secular people the movie may become history lesson instead of possible horrible future.
