  • Iko Uwais, Stuber's Villain, Is Hollywood's Next Big Action Star
    SUBSCRIBE US Iko Uwais Is Hollywood’s Next Big Martial Arts Star. Just Ask Keanu Reeves and Mark Wahlberg. Hollywood has an action aversion: turning well-choreographed ght scenes into quick-cutting, hand-held cacophonies. Iko Uwais hopes his lms will change that. BY JOSH ST. CLAIR JUL 12, 2019 RENDHA RAIS hen J.J. Abrams resurrected Star Wars, he wanted excitement—and actors who would make the new films fun. For a particular scene in The Force Awakens, when raider assassins board and attempt to hijack the Millennium Falcon from their W galactic target, Han Solo, Abrams wanted action—and actors who could make it feel real. Abrams called on Iko Uwais. It was a fan’s desire as much as it was a director’s request. Abrams, like many in Hollywood, discovered Uwais through his work on The Raid: Redemption, Welsh director Gareth Evans’ Indonesian martial arts film equally inspired by Die Hard, an M.I.A. music video, and the Malay self-defense art form Silat. The Raid became one of the most celebrated action movies of the century and featured hand-to-hand combat to render Jason Bourne a haymaker-throwing street brawler and John Wick a novice MMA fighter. (John Wick star Keanu Reeves was so enthralled by Uwais, he cast him in a small role for his directorial debut, Man of Tai Chi.) Abrams wanted that action. So he called and cast Uwais and Raid co-star Cecep Arif Rahman to hunt down Han. He also asked Uwais to choreograph a lightsaber fight for later in the film.

Gareth Evans who representations; postnational is a director from Wales managed to attract the attention of Indonesian film audiences with his films. The phenomenon of foreign directors who created Indonesian films to become representations in the world of international film is something that needs to be studied further.This research is descriptive qualitative because the data, words and sentences, are analyzed based on meaning relations. In analyzing the data, researchers used representation theory and the theory of postnational film, namely by searching for Indonesian representations of what is contained in the film and identifying the condition of postnational films in Evans's films. From the results of the analysis, it was found that there was a representation of Indonesia in films by Evans. The aspect of representation that appeared consisted of several aspects: aspects of the language of communication used in the film, aspects of settings that were raised as the background, aspects of characters based on the names of characters, backgrounds of figures, and the use of silat as a fighting style.

After fighting his way out of a building filled with gangsters and madmen – a fight that left the bodies of police and gangsters alike piled in the halls – rookie Jakarta cop Rama thought it was done and he could resume a normal life. He couldn’t have been more wrong. Formidable though they may have been, Rama’s opponents in that fateful building were nothing more than small fish swimming in a pond much larger than he ever dreamed possible. And his triumph over the small fry has attracted the attention of the predators farther up the food chain. His family at risk, Rama has only one choice to protect his infant son and wife: He must go undercover to enter the criminal underworld himself and climb through the hierarchy of competing forces until it leads him to the corrupt politicians and police pulling the strings at the top of the heap. And so Rama begins a new odyssey of violence, a journey that will force him to set aside his own life and history and take on a new identity as the violent offender "Yuda." In prison he must gain the confidence of Uco – the son of a prominent gang kingpin – to join the gang himself, laying his own life on the line in a desperate all-or-nothing gambit to bring the whole rotten enterprise to an end.

  • Merantau (2009) La Risposta Indonesiana a Tony Jaa in Una Sensazionale Escalation Di Arti Marziali Intrisa Di Pessimismo
    Merantau (2009) La risposta indonesiana a Tony Jaa in una sensazionale escalation di arti marziali intrisa di pessimismo. Un film di Gareth Evans con Iko Uwais, Sisca Jessica, Christine Hakim, Mads Koudal, Yusuf Aulia, Alex Abbad, Yayan Ruhian, Laurent Buson, Donny Alamsyah, Ratna Galih. Genere Azione durata 134 minuti. Produzione Indonesia 2009. Una storia di arti marziali, lotte e iniziazioni. Emanuele Sacchi - www.mymovies.it Yuda lascia la natia Sumatra per compiere il suo merantau, rito di passaggio che prevede un'esperienza di vita nella grande città. Arrivato a Jakarta per trovare lavoro come insegnante di silat, si trova privo del domicilio atteso e, in breve tempo, di fronte a un affare sporco di sfruttamento di ragazze, di fronte al quale Yuda non può tenere gli occhi chiusi. Era dai tempi di Barry Prima, star degli anni Ottanta, che il cinema indonesiano non era ai vertici del cinema di arti marziali. Grazie a un regista gallese, emigrato a Jakarta, e a un talento naturale come Iko Uwais, il silat torna a furoreggiare sugli schermi, in una variante (silat harimau) che attinge fortemente dal muay thai thailandese e dal kung fu cinese. L'ovvio termine di paragone di Uwais, anche per la somiglianza fisica, è Tony Jaa, il piccolo prodigio che ha sconvolto il mondo a colpi di ginocchiate in testa in Ong-Bak. Ma la star indonesiana evolve ulteriormente il lavoro di Jaa, mantenendone la mirabilia cinetica ma aggiungendo credibilità ai momenti in cui è richiesto di recitare e di rappresentare la delusione di un ragazzo pieno di speranze, posto di fronte alla ferocia del mondo.

  • Values of Nationalism Through Pencak Silat in Merantau Film
    IR - PERPUSTAKAAN UNIVERSITAS AIRLANGGA CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1.1 Background of the study Indonesia is a country rich in various of traditional cultures that must be preserved. It is not enough to preserve this cultural diversity by studyng about it, but we also need to develop the cultural values and foster them in education. Cultural diversity in Indonesia is a wealth that belongs to the Indonesian people and is not owned by other nations. Therefore, culture must be preserved. According to Koentjaraningrat, culture is "the whole system of ideas, actions and results of human work in the framework of the life of society that is made into human property by learning" (1990: 180). Then according to Hermawan, culture is "the result of the human mind that can be transferred and changed through the learning process" (2001: 10). Therefore the Ministry of Education and Culture seeks to strive for the preservation of Indonesian in order to produce young generations who love their culture. Suwaryo argues that one of these traditional culture is pencak silat and it can be classified into martial arts which have certain patterns and have its own customary behavior. Pencak silat is a concrete human activity in society, which can be observed (2008). Pencak silat is traditional Indonesian martial arts. Pencak silat as part of Indonesian culture developed in line with the history of community development. Pencak silat is one of Indonesia's cultural heritages that deserves to be preserved because pencak silat is one of the unifying tools of the nation and the 1 SKRIPSI VALUES OF NATIONALISM .
