Cek Toko Sebelah 2

The film's humor is still on point and there are some really funny moments that had me laughing. The cast has good chemistry, and it's nice seeing familiar faces. But, on the flip side, the storyline feels kinda repetitive and doesn't really bring anything new to the table. Some jokes can feel a bit forced, and the pacing drags in partss.

The comedy still works well, and there are moments that will definitely make you laugh. The cast brings good energy and chemistry, which is great. However, the storyline doesn't add much new and can feel a bit repetitive compared to the first film. Some jokes might come off as forced, and the pacing slows down in certain spots. It's enjoyable if you liked the original, but don't expect it to be a major step up.

The concept is so simple. What makes it masterpiece is the dialog is so well written, and some of them are mindblowing. The dialog often not to be made "scripted" but rather natural.

The plot itself is rather predictable. So if you are looking for some plot twists, there aren't much. The strength of the movie is the life lessons. So many of it that we could relate to our life, especially when you're in your 20s-30s. For what it is, it's pretty fair and not edgy at all.

I personally enjoys plot-based movies. But this one caught my interest even more every second of it. I watched the first movie with family on the cinema (I wasn't sure why I would watch a drama on cinema but yes, with family thing), it was amazing and so well written. This one is no inferior then the first movie.

Very recommended to watch, especially those who are still working on their love life but parents are tougher than rocks, stricter than a General to their soldiers.

Although not as strong and funny as the first movie, Cek Toko Sebelah 2 consistently presents a heartfelt, touching and entertaining drama. Heavy topics such as childfree, marriage and classism are delivered in the right portion without being too patronizing. Laura Basuki, who replaced the previous cast -Gisella Anastasia for the role of Nathalie, was also considered the right decision. Not to mention the undeniable performance of Adinia Wirasti, which feels more uplifting than the previous movie. Cek Toko Sebelah 2 is just another proof of Ernest Prakasa's expertise in working on romantic comedy movies.
