REVIEW

After independence was achieved, the Dutch are reluctant to recognize Indonesian
sovereignty by trying to re-occupy the capital Jakarta. Finally, we transferred the
central government to Jogjakarta to continue the ideals of self-government. In
Jogjakarta, the Netherlands also continued to pursue Indonesian soldiers.

One of them held a guerrilla army Capt. Hadi Sugito (Gading Marten) a guerrilla in
the region Panjen. Since running out to recruit their armies back Panjen youth. Sri
Mulyani (Tika Panggabean) Maguwo an innocent village girl and like to sleep, Udjo
(Udjo Project Pop), a spoiled patrician lineage, Tumino (Gugum Project Pop) duck
breeders and Ahok (Oddie Project Pop), a small trader of Chinese descent, they join
the Captain-led guerrilla forces Hadi Sugito after becoming victims of aggression
Milliter Dutch II in December 1948.

Hilarity of this movie feels strong from the start thanks to a hard act Sri awakened
during sleep. Also, the lyrics of the song that funny add freshness while watching
this movie. In the guerrilla forces based in the village of Sri Panjen it, Udjo, Tumino
and Ahok met with Toar (Yosi Project Pop) guerrillas from Manado myopic eyes and
Cpl Jono (Dwi Sasono), playboy petty that rank have often taken down by Captain
Hadi. They were destined to fight together ever since Lieutenant Kuyt, who led a
team of Colonial Army troops stormed and captured Panjen Wiwid (Shanty) Udjo
boyfriend, and Yayuk (Masayu Anastasia) Corporal boyfriend Jono.

These events create the six militants were determined to liberate Wiwid, Yayuk,
and Sri father who is captured, though not received the blessing of their
leadership. So, armed only with passion and information from a Colonial Army
soldier who was suffering from concussion of the brain called Once (Oon Project
Pop) they were off to the headquarters of Lieutenant Kuyt.

After arriving at the destination, kenekadan six guerrillas were not able to counter
Lieutenant Kuyt and his army. Not-yet they are cornered and captured instead join
together and Yayuk Wiwid cs. Fortunately, help is coming from the right-hand
Panjen led by Captain Hadi named Lieutenant Bowo (Teuku Rifnu Wikana). The six
insurgents and other prisoners were successfully released by Lieutenant Bowo and
Army troops Panjennya.
Captain Hadi furious over tantrum Cpl Jono and his friends were. They are not
considered discipline and jeopardize plans for a massive invasion Jogja being
prepared by the high leadership of the TNI. As a result, Sri, Udjo, Tumino, Ahok,
Toar and Cpl Jono dismissed from the army is not respectful. Even Once a soldier
has defected to the republic was arrested by Capt. Hadi.

Although already fired their fighting spirit still raged. Opportunity to prove himself
came shortly afterwards through the events of the attack to Yogyakarta on March
1, 1949, led by Lieutenant Colonel Suharto. While it is no longer an official soldier,
Cpl Jono and his men quietly moved assist military troops to block the relief troops
who were heading Jogja Colonial Army. As before, they left without careful planning
and adequate capabilities. However, this time the fighters were aware that the
success of their mission must be ready to struggle, to inhibit the rate of troops who
have the power Colonial Army assistance doubled-doubled the amount of it.

Although the comedy element dominates this film, but Monty Tiwa able to build
the message and spirit of heroic sacrifice for the homeland of the nation. Slow
motion and choice of songs to change the atmosphere of nationalist emotion.
Judging from the shape of this film comedy quite successfully. Unfortunately, in
terms of setting, Monty less attention to the background scene. Built environment
remain contemporary.
