In an effort to repeat the commercial success of Eiffel I'm In Love, another movie was made starring Shandy Aulia and Samuel Rizal. This time it's even more ambitious. If Eiffel had sequences shot in Paris, the third act of this movie was shot in San Fransisco.
It's obvious the movie had big budget for an Indonesian film. Unfortunately they don't know how to put it into good use. Instead of getting a good script, good actors, and good crews, they spend it ripping off other movies such as Catch Me If You Can (the title sequence), Sin City (the pointless walking in the rain sequence), Kill Bill (the shot of the plane), Mission : Impossible 2 (the flamenco sequence), and even Matrix Reloaded (the car chase sequence with bad CGI cars).
The only redeeming factor was I got to see this for free on 2006 JiFFest.
