Laskar Pelangi...

“Reflection in the rainbow soldiers”

Based on the movie Laskar Pelangi that I have watched, it is a really good and thoughtful movie. I really like this movie because it has a lot of main ideas that want to show to people. The main ideas given are to give lessons to us.

One of the main ideas is to tell people the important of knowledge in our life. Such the situation in this movie where Lintangs’ father is a fisherman cannot afford his family. However, he still wants his son, Lintang to go to school to get knowledge. In other situation, teachers of Muhammadiyyah School really want to teach their student thought the school is very old and didn’t get paid for their job. These show to us that, whoever we are, we still need knowledge in our life.

Secondly, this movie has thought me to be strong in continuing my life.  The lessons that I get from this movie, I realized that there are more people that lives in miserable. Therefore, I should have thankful on what I have right now because my life wasn’t miserable like them. Like the situation in this movie, Mahar, Lintang and friends are poor people. However, they are still happy enjoying their life. In other situation where Lintangs’ father died, Lintang are so strong to face it. He is very responsible person. I respect to him because he is a good brother for his sisters. These show that they are very strong and brave to continue their life.

            Thirdly, the principle of never give up and working hard always be shown in each character of this movie such as Teacher Muslimah never give up in teaching her students. She wants the best for her students.

        Actually there are many more lessons that I have got in this movie. However, I can only describe these three main ideas in this movie. In conclusion is we should thankful on whatever we have now and still fighting for our future life. Always thinking positive for our future and never gives up. =)
