Plot

After having triplets, Mae (Nirina Zubir) and Rendy (Fedi Nuril) plan to raise their children without paying heed to input from their family or friends. However, Mae begins feeling a postpartum depression; to help her, Rendy asks her childhood friends Beni (Ringgo Agus Rahman), Guntoro (Dedi Mahendra Desta), and Eman (Aming) to secretly help her. Unaware that Rendy asked them to do this, Mae keeps what they do a secret from Rendy, as she thinks he still wants to raise the triplets without outside input. Mae's parents also begin helping after seeing Beni, Guntoro, and Eman with the babies.

Rendy realises that the babies have begun to prefer Mae's friends and parents to himself, causing him to feel inadequate as a father. To keep Mae's parents away, he invites her grandmother Nyai (Ratna Riantarno) to live with them. She and Mae's father Babe (Jaja Mihardja) do not get along, so her presence is hoped to keep Babe away. This goes too far, however, as Babe leaves in a fit of anger, which causes his wife (Meriam Bellina) to fear that he may divorce her. When Mae discovers that Rendy was the one who brought Nyai over, she tells him to leave.

After Mae realises that Rendy was trying to help her, she calls Beni, Guntoro, and Eman and tasks them with improving Rendy's confidence. They succeed, and Rendy is able to help Babe and Nyai work out their differences. Both Rendy and Mae's families, as well as Beni, Guntoro, and Eman, help raise the triplets.

Production

Get Married 3 was produced as a sequel to Get Married and Get Married 2 . Hanung Bramantyo, who had directed the previous instalments, did not return for Get Married 3. He was replaced by Monty Tiwa, who was chosen by the film's production house, Starvision. [1] [2] Tiwa described the film as a challenge, as he was used to working with films he had written himself. [2] Cassandra Massardi, who had written Get Married 2, returned. [3] [4] Editor Cesa David Luckmansyah, who had received a Citra Award at the 2007 Indonesian Film Festival for his work in the original, also returned. [2]

Much of the main cast returned, including Nirina Zubir as Mae [1]  – she had recently returned to filmmaking after having her child [5]  – and Ringgo Agus Rahman, Dedi Mahendra Desta, and Aming as Mae's best friends Beni, Guntoro, and Eman. Fedi Nuril played Rendy, making him the third actor to play the role and the first non-Indo. [1] The Indonesian band Slank returned to provide the film's soundtrack, [3] including a cover of Koes Plus' "Cubit-Cubitan" ("Pinching"). [2]

The film was shot using a RedCam camera, with colour grading provided by Technicolor Bangkok. [3]

Style

The film includes several references to current events and the entertainment industry, both in Indonesia and abroad. Bramantyo makes a cameo, and is described by the characters as an extra from Ayat-Ayat Cinta (The Verses of Love; 2007) which he had directed. Another scene shows Eman interrogated by a man who looks like Gayus Tambunan, who was infamously convicted of corruption earlier that year. The children are named Mark, Oprah, and Hanung, after Mark Zuckerberg, Oprah Winfrey, and Bramantyo. [1]

Release and reception

Get Married 3 was released on 27 August 2011, during the Eid ul-Fitr holidays; the previous instalments had also been released for the holidays. [3] It was a commercial success, being viewed by more than 500,000 people by the end of September; [6] the best selling Indonesian film of 2011, Surat Kecil Untuk Tuhan (A Small Letter to God), was viewed by more than 750,000 persons. [7]

Makbul Mubarak, writing for The Jakarta Post , was highly positive in his review of Get Married 3, describing Tiwa as "a director with the best sense of humor in the country's film scene today" and the film as "the most sophisticated yet entertaining" of the three movies. [1] Kartoyo DS, reviewing for Suara Karya , found the visuals to be of good quality. [3]
