Dilan 1990

First of all..this movie is a financial success. Very popular in Indonesia. And that makes me think..are Indonesians really that dumb? Ok..what's the positive thing about this movie? The acting from the female lead is decent..and she's easy on the eyes. Other than that..none. The story is so cheesy and the male lead is so unlikable I wanna punch him in the face! And the dialogues..urghh. After halfway of the movie I got out from the theater to smoke a cigarette for like 15 mnts. I just dont care about what happen next or the ending. This movie is trying so hard to be the next 'Ada Apa Dengan Cinta'..and failed miserably. Please just stay away from this garbage..

This movie have a lot of romatic word and goes viral in indonesian's teen and all indonesian netizen. the Dilan character I think he plays good and make me think that I really wanna be people like him. The strong character in Dilan really inspire me, and the chemistry between Dilan and Milea is really sweet. sometimes I feel like cringe and laugh and sometimes I feel like I was in high school.

when I see bandung 1990, I got problem here, I see a lot of modern building there and modern cars althought that was a lot off 1990's car too.

the fighting scene over all is good, and I feel really angry when I see Milea was slapped by Adnan.

I watched this film about four years ago and dared to voice criticism this year. I think this film is seriously overrated. The acting of the two main characters is very stiff. There were many comments from people who thought the same as me that the main actor's speaking intonation when delivering dialogue seemed artificial or unnatural, as did the main actress. I'm still confused about why the main actor was nominated in the best actor category. Sorry if I'm presumptuous.

One more thing, the depiction of the 90s setting is really not visible. From clothes to hairstyles it looks very modern. Despite all that, I can still be a little entertained by this film, even though it's mostly uncomfortable.

This movie is so popular for female teen in Indonesia. They hyped about it since the trailer was out. It's maybe to cringey and cheesy for adults, but the promise of seeing a good looking playboy who gives riddles and pick-up lines and looks like he cares nothing but their relationship is what makes them fall head over heels for Dilan.

The technical problem is how the setting not arranged effectively so it doesn't feel nostalgic enough for those who had lived trough 1990s. I even see cars from 2016-2017ish. And I think the girl protagonist may have to advance her acting skill too.

The emotion in this movie is so strong. It begins with some cheesy/sweet talk between Dilan & Milea, and ends up with strong love connection. The costumes & color cinematography are inline with the background year. This is a cute movie that makes you recall your memories about your first love and school friends. Simple yet heartwarming :)
