The Shadow Strays (2024)

Indonesian feature film where Timo Tjahjanto presents us with a script without many pretensions, forged as an excuse to show his skill in creating elaborate choreographies and new ways of mutilating, cutting and executing, something we know he is really good at, as he has shown in previous works.

However, on this occasion he decides to showcase his talent with the use of katanas and firearms in much of the film, something that I feel limits his creative capacity, although I understand that this is due to the mood of the film.

An action film in which a woman who is highly trained in combat and is a member of a group of high-level assassins (the “Shadows”), becomes attached to a teenage boy, who is kidnapped by a powerful criminal group formed by drug traffickers, police and corrupt politicians. From there, 13 (which is the name of the main character) will travel the usual path of persecution and revenge, leaving corpses, mutilated limbs and gallons of blood everywhere.

The final fight will certainly not disappoint anyone, and it makes me add an extra point to this production.

Its stars are: Aurora Ribero, in her first starring role after starring in the 2021 film Ali & Ratu Ratu Queens, Hana Malasan and Kristo Immanuel.
