(Mini Series) The Wonderfools - A Fun, Light, Humorous and Entertaining Superhero Action Comedy Series

There were plenty of new and returning series during the present and last week on Netflix which made me having a bit of difficulty to choose (though it was a nice issue to have rather than nothing to watch). Anyway after few considerations, I decided to watch this one first as it looked like fun. All right then, let us just get right to it.

Brief Story Line

Story was set in the year 1999 in Haeseong city where Eun Chae-ni aka Trainwreck (Park Eun-bin - Road to Boston, Hyper Knife TV series etc) had been living all her life there with her very protective grandmother Mrs. Kim (Kim Hae-sook - Gyeongseong Creature TV series, Our Season etc). Chae-ni was best friends with Ro-bin aka Sap King (Im Seong-jae - The Ugly, Law and the City TV series etc) who worked at Mrs. Kim's restaurant and also Son Gyeong-hun aka Nightmare (Choi Dae-hoon - Uprising, Pro Bono TV series etc), an older guy who was married with a teenage daughter. Gyeong-hun loved to complain about anything to the government office where he ultimately met with Lee Eun-jeong (Cha Eun-woo - The First Ride, Wonderful World TV series etc), a civil servant who was given task to receive his complaints.

In the Grey - A Fun and Enjoyable Ride Guy Ritchie's Style

I knew this film was about to be released this week since the biggest cinema chain in Indonesia now always shows the schedule up to one or even two months ahead. At first I was a bit doubtful cause I never heard of the movie. But once I saw the lead stars and director, I thought I should give it a try. Yesterday my wife and I got the chance to see it in the theater very near to our home. Without further ado, here's more on the movie.

Brief Story Line

Manny Salazar (Carlos Bardem - Escobar: Paradise Lost, The Chosen One TV series etc) had been borrowing large amount of money from a Financial Institution but failed to return the loan. Bobby Sheen (Rosamund Pike - Now You See Me, Now You Don't, The Wheel of Time TV series etc) who worked at the Bank was assigned to recover the debt from Salazar and ultimately agreed to the proposal from Lawyer Rachel Wild (Eiza González - Godzilla Vs Kong, 3 Body Problems TV series etc) for arranging the recovery despite her huge success fee.

Timur - Directorial Debut of Iko Uwais Which Sadly Underperformed

This week, Netflix got plenty of new movies and series released, including several older shows from other networks that made me pretty busy playing catch up. But this film that was made available yesterday caught my attention so I decided to immediately watch it last night. All right then, why don't I get right to it.

Brief Story Line

A group of researchers that included few Indonesians and foreigners together with local guide Apollo (Aufa Assagaf) and Yoseph (Adhin Abdul Hakim) who went to East Indonesia were captured and taken hostage by terrorist group led by Tobias (Arnold Kobogau) and his right hand man Frans (Macho Hungan).

With negotiations going nowhere, the Indonesian government decided to do a military operation by the Special Forces Corps (Kopassus). Timur (Iko Uwais - Ash, Triple Threat etc) and his best friend Sila (Jimmy Kobogau) were among these elite soldiers who were assigned on this highly dangerous mission.
