  Godzilla × Kong: The New Empire 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 10 Apr 2024

  it's impressive to be the second or third best movie in the monsterverse and not have a single good or memorable soundtrack. kick that AI loving Junkie XL, replace him with Bear McReary, change the VFX style more akin to KOTM or Skull Island and i think we're good on running this franchise for 20 more years. cz there are some good ideas here, a lot of them actually, i like the kong subplot, i like every time godzilla is…

  Dirty Vote 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 11 Feb 2024

  as an actual documentary the incompetence in its filmmaking aspect is hilarious, the presentation is boring although it gets the point across, dandhy laksono can try to call himself a filmmaker but with this and sexy killers there's only one thing he definitely can highlight, his material. if we're only talking about the material and its place in the current hellscape of indonesian political scene, this is very important, arguably as important as Joshua Oppenheimer's The Act of Killing and The Look of Silence. props to the material but put down the camera man, choose someone else to make your movie

  Missing Home 2022

  ★½ Watched 19 Jun 2022

  i don't think the director knows that for us to support the dad's redemption he should set the tone that we shouldn't support the dad from the very beginning.

  boring cinematography, underacting all around (for the exception of the dad and the mom) as a batak myself i found this to be an insult to only explore and criticize the usual misogyny and racism in batak tradition at the last thirty minutes of the movie, i didn't laugh a single time since the jokes are the very textbook definition of generic. if my parents didn't bring me to watch this i will never watch it
