Featured reviews
Jatuh Cinta Seperti di Film-Film is an Indonesian romantic drama that feels like a warm hug to those who adore love stories and the art of cinema. Directed with a gentle and personal touch, the film offers a narrative that is both touching and nostalgic, wrapped in a cinematic atmosphere that evokes a sense of longing and affection.
I give this movie an 8 out of 10 because it delivers a heartfelt love story that's simple yet emotionally resonant. The dialogue feels sincere, and the characters' interactions create a natural chemistry that brings the story to life. There's a quiet charm in the way the film unfolds-slow, steady, and full of warmth.
One of its strongest elements is how it treats the world of cinema-not just as a setting, but as a meaningful metaphor. The visuals are beautifully crafted with warm tones, soft lighting, and a score that enhances the emotional depth of each scene.
While the story doesn't break new ground and follows a familiar structure, it's told with care and elegance. This is the kind of film you watch when you crave emotional sincerity, cinematic beauty, and a reminder of how love and storytelling are forever intertwined.

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...

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.

A movie within a movie, within a movie! Something to that effect in this little gem about the crazy process of movie making, and how a screenwriter deals with the creative approach by involving his personal life, and those of others with great consequences.
It ultimately ends up as a love story, but without the Indonesian melodrama. Instead just a clever and funny structure, thanks to the talents of Yandy Laurens, who has gone against the grain of Indonesian film styles, by creating characters of great empathy (and the cast did an amazing job) in this honest and heartfelt story that combines the zany struggles in movie making, the process of grieving and most importantly, love.
