Yeah, Right... is a slice of late '80s Indonesian cinema that taps into the dangdut musical craze. With a lead character, Herry Irama, who bears more than a passing resemblance to the famous Rhoma Irama, you can tell immediately what the film is getting at. The atmosphere is infused with the struggles of aspiring artists, the music is catchy, if not a bit repetitive, and the performances have this earnest edge that feels very much of its time. The pacing can be a challenge, but there's something endearing about its low-budget charm and the practical effects used in some of the musical numbers. It’s a film that reflects the aspirations of its era, even if it doesn’t quite hit the heights of its inspirations.
