Ayat Ayat Cinta

I was browsing youtube for Indonesian songs and it came to my attention people's comments about a movie called Ayat Ayat Cinta when I watched a new Rossa's song. I wasn't really interested in it at first because it seems to be a religious movie. But people gave really really good comments so I decided to look for it on youtube.

BIG TWO THUMBS for this movie. Yes, it has religious flavor in it, but it is purely a love story movie. This is a story about a young poor guy named Fahril, who is a muslim protagonist. He never really closed to women besides his mom. Then one day, he gets a scholarship from Al-Azhar Uni in Egypt, and when he is in Egypt, there are 4 beautiful women who likes him. The first woman named Maria. She is a christian who lives just above his apartment. He likes her too to some extend, but they know religion difference is the reason why they can't be together. But she still has a big hope on him.
The second woman named Nurul. She is his colleague who has a big crush on him.
The third woman named Noura. A helpless woman who gets a domestic abuse from her family. One day, Fahril helps her when she gets abuse and from there, she has a big crush on him. He hurt her in some point and gave him a big trouble.
The fourth woman named Aisha. She is the one that he finally pickes her as his wife. But he doesn't know her at all when he made that decision. In that story, as he is a muslim protagonist, he doesn't believe in a relationship prior to marriage. He knows her from his teacher whom he looked at as his father. The marriage problem suddenly occurs because his wife is richer than him. Also he sometimes likes to compare her to Maria.

A complex love story with a twist at the end. I was crying half of the movie *blush*, but when I told my mom about it, she said "the president and the vice president were crying when they watched this movie." HAHA I am not the only one :P
I recommend you to watch this movie.
