Ngeri-Ngeri Sedap

Story about Batak Culture intertwined with modern timeline. It's absolutely astounding, Bene Dion really able to direct the whole movie from laugh, to serious, then laugh again, with heartwarming feeling about family.

Perfect movie flow, amazing panoramic view of Toba, combined with Batak's art, seasoned with some light jokes.

I don't expect a lot from Indonesian Movies, but this one really above my expectations, hats off to "Ngeri - Ngeri Sedap"

Not just a family drama, but also shows the gender role and expectation in the household. Nice music, landscape and culture story of Batak :) really good acting! From crying, laughing and angry moment, they got it all perfect.

Taught us about cultural ceremony and value of Batak; family is number 1. Make me feel missing home Now :) and definitely worth of my tears to watch the happy ending.

Congrats the crew! You made it to the academy award! We want more this kind of film being produce and watch by Indonesian families and beyond.

Really like the sense of humor here! Not too much but well accepted.

After watching this film, I went home with a very satisfied heart because the film really exceeded expectations. A very good family drama film, there are so many lessons to be learned from this film.

Even though the film is about the Batak family, I'm sure the film will relate to almost all families.

Big respect to the director and all the cast. Thank you for this very emotional movie.

There's a lot of hype about this movie in social media so I give it a go once it's on Netflix. I am not a Bataknese but I can understand the jokes and even learn alot about Batak culture. I really enjoy and feel immersed with the culture and watching as the story unfolds around it. The director did a very good job telling the story while showing the beautiful scenery around the characters hometown and the family customs. It surely is a homage to Indonesia's rich nature and culture.

The strong message about parenting, growth, and patriarchal society that inflicts to the damage for both women and men are all well delivered. You might cry at some heated and difficult dialogues, like me.

Everything is perfect. The story is very strong. The flow from beginning to the end is very smooth. Tika's acting wonderfull. Colouring with relevant and beautiful Batak' song. Indonesian movie is really advancing. Endorsing you and all family, if possible with your dad and mom, watching the movie together...
