Featured reviews
I am a movie-lover person that mostly watch Hollywood movies and it is very rare for me to find Indonesian movies that suit to my criteria. But, this film give me some insight that Indonesian movies are very good, too. Because of the intriguing title and many positive reviews from my relatives, I decided to watch this film and can't wait no longer to know whether this movie is like what the positive reviews said. Yeah, and it was EXCELLENT! It has comedy, romance, drama and many cameos from well-known Indonesian celebrities (I was quite amaze when I seen the cameos). Additionally, this movie also gives some life lessons that we can learn. I hope excellent Indonesian films like this is not come out rarely and I pray for the future of National film production to make many and many excellent movies!
Earnest Prakasa is a brilliant storyteller. The premise is very simple, and yet it is what makes the storyline relate-able. A story about the ups and downs of each family members, each character can resonate with the audience in some way.
With excellent comedic performances by the actors and great writing, Cek Toko Sebelah addressed real social issues in a light-hearted approach -- yet it did not take away from the message.
Cek Toko Sebelah is a great movie to add into your Indonesian repretoire.

Recommended going with your Family especially your father. Thank you So much with your movie can inspiring from this Movie I hope Indonesian Movie Industry will make a film better and better like this. Nice Works! I wait for your next movie or your next Books Ernest Prakasa.
This is one of the best Indonesian movie I've ever watched. The cast, the plot, the comedy, the drama, they are packaged in a very good way. This movie fells like a roller coaster, you'll laugh out loud at some moment, and fell like gonna cry in few minutes after. I'm looking forward for Ernest Prakasa next movie from now on. (I'm sorry for my bad English :D)
Cek Toko Sebelah kicks off as a lighthearted comedy about a high-flying son pressed into running his dad's corner shop for a month-and it quickly becomes so much more. Ernest Prakasa nails every quip, from office banter to neighborhood gossip, while Chew Kin Wah's gruff-but-tender patriarch steals every scene he's in. Without giving away the twists, the film's heart shines in those small, tender moments when family obligations collide with personal dreams.
What really sets this movie apart is how effortlessly it weaves big laughs into genuine emotion. One minute you're chuckling at a clueless customer demanding "extra spicy," the next you're warmed by a brother-sister toast that feels like an old memory. The supporting cast brings just enough color-though a few characters could've used more screen time, their brief appearances still pack a punch.
Cek Toko Sebelah is a feel-good gem that proves local stories can have universal appeal. It's the kind of film you'll want to watch with your family, then quote for weeks afterward. Don't miss it.
