"... the crew shot on site over a period of two months. There they faced typhoons and large waves, while in the village they had difficulty maneuvering over the wooden walkways and bridges used by the Bajau" So, "on site" does not include the village?

"... Andini was expressing her desire to be "break away from her..." Is there an extra "be"?
- D'oh. Done. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:31, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"... the film was one of the first to address document the Bajau people..." An extra "address".

D'oh. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:31, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"... and the "artificial" manner traditional songs were included in the film" Some word s probably missing here.--Dwaipayan (talk) 04:49, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- How's this? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:31, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The way in which footnotes are formatted appears somewhat unconventional (authorname, year, workname). It's usually authorname and year, right? So, is this an acceptable style? Do we have examples of such usage in other good articles?
- It's all using {{cite web}}, {{cite news}}, etc. for the citations proper. The short footnotes have the title too as sometimes a writer writes more than one article in a year (see Kurniasari for an example). Aside from ref formatting not being in the criteria, you can check any of my other GAs and FAs (Terang Boelan, Ruma Maida, Mereka Bilang, Saya Monyet!, ?, and so on) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:06, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
How about a small description (may even be one sentence) of Bajau people (highlighting their maritime nomadic lifestyle)? May be in Production section.--Dwaipayan (talk) 16:49, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- On it. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:06, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - Done. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:13, 1 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

In my opinion, the article meets GA criteria. I randomly checked a few references, including some English translations of Indonesian pages, and those checked out perfectly. --Dwaipayan (talk) 23:03, 5 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review! — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:06, 5 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
