Not Yet Released, Java Heat Movie Already Leaked on Internet
Sad news came regarding the Java Heat movie. This new action movie, featuring special Hollywood action actors Mickey Rourke and Kellan Lutz, is scheduled to be released on 18 April 2013. However, the studio has to swallow a bitter pill as the movie has already been leaked on the internet and made available for free download.
From a production costs standpoint, Java Heat was reported to cost around U.S. $15 million. With the online spread of this Connor Alyn directed film, it is feared that ticket sales will fall sharply from the expected target. As previously reported, this film combines Hollywood and Indonesian shooting locations and the filming took about 2 months to complete since September 2011.
Besides plans to release this movie in Indonesia, it is also set to be shown in theatres on an international scale, including Japan, Thailand and America.

WOW! The leaked movie is even available on Blu-Ray version instead of just the camcorder version. hehehe…
Erasmus:
I suspect the perpetrators of this piracy are from the editing team… It usually doesn’t happen during post audio since after post-production, the movie film will have a watermark…
Congorcok:
I think the person who leaked the movie doesn’t get paid enough, Boss =)
Klonengan.tomi:
This is so sad but what can we do? Our Indonesian mentality is to download anything for free. Unfortunately, the work of our own people was leaked this time. I wouldn’t care so much if this was an imported movie. =)…
Landscaping:
I feel so lucky reading this article in time! I’ll download the movie now while I still have a lot of download bandwidth quota left. LOL…
Panjenk:
In Indonesia, anything will get pirated. However, hopefully Hollywood won’t give up on making more movies in Indonesia again =)
Taiga7328:
In my opinion, this movie isn’t that good, Boss. Its special effect are very bad unlike other Hollywood movies. I couldn’t watch the entire movie and fast forwarded through many scenes since it was free anyway. hahahaha….
Anjarmiati:
The movie studio probably tried to make this big news as a way to promote the movie. HAHAHA…
Dark:
Even though the movie is already leaked online, I’m sure people will still watch it in the cinemas as it has a different ambiance.
Ahyau:
It’ll be a miracle for this movie to breakeven now that it has been leaked…..
Yoesuv:
I’m sure the movie producer is feeling stressful now… =(
Jodayme:
The people who leaked this movie are so inconsiderate. Don’t they know how hard it is to make a movie?
Saktian2003:
I have already watched the movie on YouTube so I am no longer curious. It’s not my fault that I downloaded it since there is no movie theatre around my home. hehehe…
Hwang2312:
Even though the movie is already leaked, we as proud Indonesians shouldn’t be downloading it. Let’s watch it in the movie theatre and show our appreciation and support for Indonesia movies. Yayyy!
What would you do? Do you think it is okay to download movies from the internet? Have you watched it also?
