Do You See What I See

In relation to how most horror movies are rated on IMDB, I would have expected this movie to have an average rating between 6 and 7. Its a well made solid movie. The only issue is that it can get slow at times but overally keeps a decent pace with plenty of actual horror scenes which are quite scary and creepy. There are so many much slower and boring horror movies rated higher than this. This is actually an entertaining movie. Characters and their interactions are quite realistic and believable as well and each actor has done justice with their respective characters. Story is not too deep or complicated but it serves its purpose. All the special and visual effects were also done well for the most part. I am not a big fan of how the movie ended though. But that is a highly subjective take, some will probably like the ending.

In the end, its a decent one time watch movie for horror fans who want to watch a movie which is a straight up horror movie and NOT some metaphorical movie about trauma. Casual fans might find some scenes to be too scary though. Indonesia has become World's Horror movie capital in my opinion and this movie just adds to that.

Another Indonesian movie with a fantastic horror plot. Based on a horror podcast, the movie adaptation is simply superb and wi;l keep the audience hooked.

Although, I dont understand the language but the screenplay and story will keep your eyeballs stuck to the screen (Ofcourse you have to follow subtitles :) ) After a long I have come across such a unique plot in the horror genre. I will definitely recommend this one to watch out, if you are a fan of Horror movies.

You will also get to understand the Indonesian culture related to death rituals and bonding among the friends. The actors are also very good and the movie is a fresh one in this genre. So watch and enjoy :)

9 Stars from me.

The story about a woman who is dating a ghost is interesting, whether using the perspective of the woman, or her friends. The movie uses her friends perspective, so we can see some interesting things like when her friends suspecting whether her boyfriend is a good man or not, or whether her boyfriend is human or not. And of course when her friends are haunted by the ghost. It's an interesting story and surprisingly well executed. However, I think this film needs to deepen the story, especially in the cause of the core incident to add more scary element to the film. Also, the main character's acting still feels a bit stiff. Lastly, I am very satisfied with the ending chosen.

Well it's a decent story execution was not good, the thing is movie lacks that connection with characters which it didn't develop which is why you don't feel what's meant to be shown. Lack of impact due to poor execution and story telling. You can watch once if you are bored. Acting was not great either.. i mean they tried but the role of younger sister i mean the actor couldn't act well. The boyfriend was just there nothing much just for plot reason, had to be useful once with nonsense relationship triangle again no impact or sense. Overall movie lacked the connection and very poor execution, you won't miss much if you skipped it.

The fact that "Do You See What I See" was an Asian horror movie that I had neither seen nor heard about, was actually more than sufficient to make me opt to watch it. I do have a thing for Asian cinema and horror cinema, so this was a given.

Writers Lele Laila and Mizter Popo put together a fair enough script. It was, however, somewhat on the generic and bland side. I sort of semi-zoned out about halfway through the movie, because there wasn't a whole lot scary stuff going on, and the pacing of the narrative was rather sluggish. "Do You See What I See" feels like it is a background noise type of movie, provided you can understand spoken Indonesian, of course.

I was not familiar with the cast in the movie, but the acting performances were certainly fair enough.

Visually, then director Awi Suryadi certain managed to make an atmospheric movie by using lighting, or lack thereof mostly to be honest, locations and such. It was not a movie that really incorporated a lot of special effects, though. I really do like the corpse effects, though.

Watchable, sure, but "Do You See What I See" was hardly a memorable foray into the Indonesian horror cinema. There are far better and way more scary Indonesian horror movies out there.

My rating of "Do You See What I See" lands on a five out of ten stars.
