  The Paradise of Thorns 2024

  ★★½ Watched 07 Nov 2024

  i had a conflicted feeling leaving the theatre. but then i thought, “if this was an indonesian film made by J or G, i would hate it incredibly with all of my guts.”

  the thought resolved all of the inner turmoil and gave me the clarity i needed. i do not like this movie. (jeff’s fangirls screaming the entire movie did not help either, but i can only wish that they’re not homophobic fujoshis. that’s all i need.) the but i kinda want to savor the little achievement of having BL stories uncensored in indonesian theatres.

  Sweet Dreams 2023

  ½ Watched 27 Nov 2023

  didn’t even finish. walked out of the cinema. colonizer be colonizing 😑 this is not even a bad movie, it’s a violent movie fetishizing the colonial reality.

  i’ve never walked out of the cinema before even when there are triggering scenes, but this is just another level of colonialism in cinema frames.
