La fotocopiadora

Photocopier

I saw the trailer on Netflix's YouTube channel, and I was really intrigued, especially by the accolades I saw it was getting before it got acquired by Netflix. I was also sceptical to see it, because it's an Indonesian movie, and I'm sure I've not watched anything from that country.

I couldn't exactly remember the trailer as I was seeing the movie, and I think that's good, because everything felt fresh. The phrase 'never judge a book by its cover' or in this case 'never judge a movie by its country of origin' rings absolutely true!

A pure cinematic wonder from start to finish! The movie packs a sprawling number of elements and ties them all fastidiously. The finale is so emotive and inspiring, and seeing how it relates to the title of the movie holds much more value. The plot, the pacing, the runtime, the cast... Perfecto!

Definitely one of the best movies I've seen in a long while, and It's a definite recommendation. I'm excited to see more Indonesian movies.

Sur lost her scholarship, because her indecent photos went online. She launched an investigation to clear her name.

This is a good addition to the Indonesian movies scene. Nevertheless some things are getting old, yet with the inclusion of fresh infusion.

Not oblivious of the obvious holes in the plots with splashes of unrealistic conditions; The idea of Photocopier is kind of forced, but it is a well executed one.

It has more potential to be developed even further to be a greater one as mini series. Even more ironic is the alleged controversy around one of the Photocopier's writer. This could be the cost of that of greatness.

I was no so sure if I should watch this movie as the movie is from Indonesia. It is co-written and directed by Wregas Bhanuteja . I got glued to the movies as Movie is tech Mystery Crime Thriller. I believe Netflix should focus on Cinema with good content only. I strongly recommend this movie.

The plot was unique and well-conceived, but the execution wasn't. It was obvious right from the beginning that this not going to be a run-of-the-mill movie & it wasn't. The young actress beautifully played the main character of Sur. She definitely knows how to put in a power performance, but even she was under-used.

Wasn't too high on the suspense factor as well. Rama, going to take a picture at 2am when it's raining, was a dead giveaway, and his father offering Sun to pay for her entire scholarship, killed the suspense was left by then. Having figured out the culprit so early, takes the intrigue factor away.

A good movie to watch once if you are not critic minded & get satisfied with going-with-the-flow.

Any indonesian features in my life, but if this is the mean of their film production, i might start searching for more...

its a film about cheating and exploitation of the young and innocent, some will call it pedophelia, but the root of the story is a girl having a blackout due to alcohol comsume, next day her world is upside down, and she looses all her grants and everyones respect due too social and religious immorale.but this femme aint fatale, she take the burden and starts digging though legal and illegal methods to find out why and how...

the cast delivers very convincingly, the language and cultural barriere makes my evaluatiuon versus the moral code somehow limited,ive worked with 2 indonesians at the nursing home that i work, but having seen western productions over the same topic, i can tell theyve made a good product, as a man i can just say that the actresses casted for this movie is just smashing beautiful, and they could easily enter international fame with good language training.

Filmographically its high standard, some times the cam is too close to lock out surroundings, but the filming techniques are well managed. Also the presentation and use of social media as main source for the action of the movie are brilliant, hollywood prods pepper us with visual sms that comes and goes so fast, here theyve managed to tell the whole story from it, and thus that at a far lower budget...do also sense the abscence of music in large parts of this movie, usually a helping hand for a plot, but appears strong as a method in this flick

so i give my acclamation to the makers, and thanks for an unusual digital investigation.blackouts or not, the grumpy old man had loads of them when young adult and wish i could and would love to rewind and puzzle them together as they did in this flick, but its all over for me noiw and just nightmares of the past, but ill make a note behind my ear for my next lifetime.

A recommend for the acts, filming and story comes from the grumpy old man.
