  The Earth of Mankind 2019

  ★★★ Rewatched 20 Feb 2025

  There's a difference between a slowburn film and a boring film, and I see this film as a boring one. I'm sorry for that, I guess.

  However, I love the climax, I love the unforced interaction between the people and the coloniser, although the dialogues between the people themselves still feels cringe.

  There's just not much that I can say about this film.

  A Brother and 7 Siblings 2024

  ★★★★★ Watched 29 Jan 2025

  Almost flawless. I feel like Yandy Laurens's filmmaking excels in screenwriting, unforced humour bits, cinematography, art direction, and casting.

  I'd like to see Sore: Istri Dari Masa Depan and his other films consistently being on this and JESEDEF level.

  Blue Poetry 2023

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 20 Oct 2024

  I hate how the camera just couldn't stand still at some shots.

  However, THIS FILM IS THE BEAST! The symbolisation, the irony behind its story, the colour grading, and what I love the most: the production design is LIIIITTTTT!

  Before One's Eyes 2024

  ★★★★ Rewatched 15 Oct 2024

  The feeling of loss is going to be relatable to many audiences. Not to mention that this film has done it in a simple and perfect ways. I can also appreciate the technical aspects that has been done by the crews.
