Dilan 1990

This movie is the most iconic romcom of my generation in Indonesia, as many people from all ages know it and people love to quote Dilan's famous pick-up lines in daily life. In my opinion as a teenager, this movie is cute and funny, but very cheesy and predictable. I like Dilan's character, he's funny and unique but his pick-up lines are so cringey and overrated. As for Milea the female lead, her character is pretty boring and such a typical damsel in distress. Also, the book is better than the movie.

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.

Actually, i don't want to watch this movie at the first time. because i think it would be the same as another Indonesian drama movie . but my wife push me to accompany her to watch at cinema.

after watch it i can say i loved this movie. it is not the same as i saw before. its very fun to watch. and sometimes its remind me about my high school. :)

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..

Never read the novel and been hearing the hype. I finally found it on Netflix. The acting of Dilan character is very bad. This character is already a stalker (creepy). Add bad acting, unnatural speaking tone (what teenager speaks that way?!) into the mix and you end up with a creepy stalker instead of a charming rebel. Other than this, the story telling is a drag, not engaging. I tried to enjoy this movie but it's so bad that I couldn't justify the time I spend (read: waste) to watch it. I don't recommend it.
