Agak Laen

From Podcast to the Film, The Story about The four haunted house officers are named Boris, Jegel, Bene, and Oki. It is said that the four of them served as ghosts who scared visitors to a haunted house at a Pasar Malam. However, instead of being scary and impressing visitors, the haunted house doesn't give off a scary impression at all. Even the ghosts in it fail to surprise or frighten visitors. This situation makes the ride management try as much as possible to present a scary haunted house ride. I Love Interesting Story Tealing, Acting is Very Very Good, Comedy is Amazing, Good Emotional, But the Bad Part is Product Placement, But Luckily is Short Runtime, Overall, This is Funniest Indonesia Movie I Ever See, I giving rating is 8,5/10.

Agak Laen is a refreshing take on the comedy genre, offering a unique storyline that blends humor with thought-provoking social commentary. The film stands out for its clever script and an eccentric cast of characters who add depth to the narrative, each bringing their own quirks to the story. This balance between lighthearted comedy and moments of introspection gives the film an enjoyable, layered quality.

The humor in Agak Laen often leans on witty dialogue and situational comedy, making it relatable and enjoyable for a wide audience. The film's ability to highlight everyday experiences with a comedic twist keeps viewers engaged while also encouraging them to think about larger themes. The performances are authentic, with each actor adding a unique charm to their roles, and the direction brings out both the fun and sincerity in each scene.

While it might not aim to be a blockbuster, Agak Laen shines with its fresh approach, creative storytelling, and entertaining mix of humor and social insight. It's a film that will leave audiences smiling and reflecting on its messages.

With that tittle it is indeed delivers just that .. stranger things in a funny way that is. From the befinning of the movie maybe one will think it is another ordinary slapstick comedy movie from Indonesian which is the norm all this years or decades if you will.

Then the pace of the movie starts to pick up . One thing leads to another. And that is when the movie is worth the watch all the way right up till the end.

Worth to mention as well that this is oen of the movie that you will want to keep backing up the bad guys . The story telling was done in way that wont bore you down .

And yes in time the story build all around the guys and thats the pillars of it all . Yes life is hard and nothing is easy but the way life was endure was really another level.

Muhadkly Acho's most impressive work to date is undoubtedly "Agak Laen." This film stands out as an unexpectedly powerful piece that adeptly blends multiple genres while maintaining a well-balanced mix of humor and heartfelt moments. It represents a rare breed of comedy that consistently delivers laughs throughout its runtime, thanks in large part to the remarkable chemistry among its four lead actors. Acho brings boundless energy to the project, crafting a comedy that resonates with genuine humor and enthusiasm. Although the film does include some noticeable product placements that might be off-putting to some, this minor flaw does not detract from its overall success. "Agak Laen" is a film that is both smart and silly, courageous and conceptual, satirical and irreverent, yet deeply rooted in its character development. It's another standout entry from Imajinari that truly deserves a greater level of attention and appreciation.

I think Indonesian comedy movies are saturated with stand-up talents with one-liner jokes that spread throughout a simple, nice backdrop for the main story. This caused a string of box office hits but no substance that could differentiate one movie from the others. Agak Laen proved that the formula could be fresh if brought by a really amazing story backdrop and sense of realism.

The movie has a perfect sitcom setup. A haunted house attraction becomes viral after a real person died there. It's full of great scenes with cool comedic timings, they know how to turn between drama and funny scenes well. I feel like the four characters are too many since their traits seem to be similar, hence it's blurry to remember who's who. The plot tries to give nuance with more chemistry and personal issues, and it works!

The climax is one of the best I've ever seen. It goes realistic and does not ignore basic logic even though it's comedy. I am still hugely disappointed by how they keep making blunt advertisements throughout the movie, which I think could be better. Still, watching Agak Laen gives me hope that Indonesia comedy movies do have great future.
