A World Without

Nia Dinata's 'A World Without' begins intriguingly but quickly devolves into muddled terrain as it tries to explain itself, making it one of those films that want to appear as if it has big ideas, but isn't quite sure how to handle them and gradually runs out of things to say. The actors try their best but can't cover up such poor writing.

Awkward dialogues and many MANY plot holes were getting worse as the movie went. Is it sarcasm towards no-dating-campaign? Or women empowerment? Futuristic education? The actors surprisingly (because they known for good acting) failed to bring whatever purpose they intended to highlight in this movie. I'm so sorry but I hope next time they invest more in a good writer, prop master, and production designer.

I think the idea is amazing, a cult-like thriller, but the execution is awful. The first few minutes are really interesting though, you try to understand what is happening, it builds up on you... and then mid-film until the end you're just confused about what is happening.. even the ending doesn't give you much closure bcz they try to tell too many stories at once. Not sure what they're trying to explain here. Anti marriage? Women empowerment? To me, they try to be like the handmaids tale narrative but in a less serious and more cringey tone ??

The worst thing is that the acting is super cringey and the script, especially the set, the "trying to look advanced but fake gizmos (a transparent phone?)" i don't buy it. I think if they made it darker and in a more serious tone it would be better.

I didn't really wanna watch it at first. But after seeing the Ad. Several times on YouTube, I decided to watch it.

From the first 5-10 minutes, I already knew that it's gonna waste my time.

The storyline, the conflict, etc. Were ..... It's hard to explain.

It's messy.

As if it's not planned thoroughly.

I'm disappointed.

Its not even worth a review, but since there are none at the moment maybe i can save you the time and tell you its bad in every aspect, the story, the acting and all and all, don't waste your time.
