  ★★★½ Watched 07 Mar 2025

  This film starts off really shallow—half-baked comedy, a bit soapy, but somehow still manages to be charming and warm at times. The story feels like a straight-up Wattpad original, but the production? They went all in!

  The leads are clearly rookies—lots of moments that don’t feel natural—but with more experience, they’ll get there. At least they’re entertaining and have decent chemistry. There are a few plot holes leading up to the climax, but honestly? Who cares. This movie is here for a good time, and it delivers. Fun watch!

  This is, by far, the BEST Indonesian slice-of-life film I've ever watched. Props to Lucky Kuswandi! And yes, I’m calling out to all Indonesian filmmakers out there, PLEASE MAKE MORE FILMS LIKE THIS 👏🏻

  Initially, I was puzzled because I dived right in without glancing at the synopsis, assuming it would follow an anthology format. Surprisingly, it…
