  Sudah tidak diragukan lagi bahwa selain horror, film yang bertema perselingkuhan tentu menjadi daya tarik penonton yang kuat. Tapi premis film ini bukan hanya memiliki konflik biasa karena perselingkuhan terjadi dengan sang ipar yang menurut aku pribadi sangatlah risky. Tapi Hanung tentunya sutradara dengan jam terbang yang sangat lama dan dia mampu menyuguhkan suatu drama yang AWALNYA sangat menarik.

  Perselingkuhan ini terjadi bukan karena hasrat nafsu sesaat tapi memang adanya bangunan momen-momen kecil yang akhirnya memuncak dan ini sangatlah menarik.…
