    Appreciate for Brilliant Fun Movie

    First 15 minutes of the movie, I thought it would be like One cut of the dead, where the story is the same as what the character filming... But its not like that apparently...

    For a slow pace movie its really worth to wait and watch the ending, and I didn't expect the ending of the story. Yandy Lauren is a great writer and director in making this film... The cast is really suit themselves, and that makes the characters chemistry is very good on screen.

    And I don't care black and white thing in movie, because its just the same for me, as long as the story is good like this. Because what makes movie really great is the story.

    Its a very fun movie, recommended to watch... And the last thing, appreciate Yandy Lauren for making this brilliant movie...

    BEST MODERN INDONESIAN FILM

    Jatuh Cinta Seperti di Film-Film feels very classy. In this film there are themes such as love, loss, friendship and struggle. The story in this film feels really fresh, and is written brilliantly. The romance story presented in this film feels unique, more relatable and more natural with a storytelling style that is impressive and comfortable to watch. Each dialogue also sounds more flexible, so it doesn't seem cringy. This film also has comedy elements that satirize the Indonesian film industry's that lack of creativity and originality. The characterizations are also all well written, and make us feel sympathy for the characters. The pacing is also really nice to follow, it won't be boring. Every shot is all beautiful, with the use of a black & white effect which gives a more dramatic impression. The editing of this film is top notch and intentional. Both the score and soundtrack really match the film. The acting of each actor is also really great. Overall, this might be the best modern Indonesian film.

    Most brilliant movie I've ever watched

    There's no one movie quite like this one. Every scene leaves a lasting impression, despite many of them consisting mostly of conversations. What sets this film apart is its ability to keep you engaged with minimal action, relying on the depth of its dialogue to propel the story forward. The performances are exceptional, with the actors' delivery capturing the essence of their characters so effectively that even a simple exchange becomes captivating.

    The film excels in creating tension and emotion from seemingly mundane moments, making every scene feel significant. The dialogues, although seemingly ordinary, are layered with subtext and insight, revealing much more than what's said on the surface. This intricate blend of storytelling makes it impossible to get bored, as every conversation feels like it's contributing something essential to the narrative.

    Ultimately, the movie's strength lies in its ability to hold the viewer's attention purely through the power of its writing and performances. It's a perfect example of how a film doesn't need constant action or flashy visuals to be compelling. It's a celebration of meaningful dialogue, character development, and the art of storytelling that sticks with you long after the credits roll.

    I didn't expect this film to be this good!

    This is a masterpiece that exceeded all my expectations. The cinematography is absolutely stunning, with each frame beautifully composed and capturing the mood perfectly. The dialogue feels genuine and heartfelt, resonating deeply with the characters' emotions and experiences. The unique concept brings a refreshing take on romance, blending just the right amount of realism with a touch of fantasy that keeps the story engaging from beginning to end.

    The actors deliver powerful performances that make the characters feel real and relatable, adding an emotional depth that elevates the entire experience. The director has crafted a beautiful journey that speaks to anyone who's ever dreamed of a love that feels cinematic yet grounded in truth. This film is not only visually impressive but also emotionally impactful. It's rare to find a romantic film that's so well-rounded and thoughtful. Truly, Jatuh Cinta Seperti di Film-Film is a gem in contemporary cinema, and I'm still in awe of its brilliance. I can't recommend it highly enough.

    Extraordinary and unique movie

    At first i was like getting some bored because of the slow pace of the movie (i dont really like slow pace movies). But slowly i getting really interested about the characters development in this movie.

    Instead of giving the audience some melodrama or ordinary romance movies out there, this movie really gives new expirience of watching rom-com movie.. and not to mention the black and white concept, it was really brilliant.

    I really recommend this movie for all ages, because this movie just mixed our emotions and feelings, and also a great great shout out to Yandy Lauren for making this movie.

    I can't wait to see your next extraordinary movies.
