Surprise Me A Lot in a Good Way...

I must admitted i was pessimist about this movie before watched in cinema. But after the ending credit i really surprise how this film so so different from teenage romanticism theme out there. The story about abusive boyfriend it's so so rare to picked into cinema. Lala an athlete meets Yudhis who just transferred from another school. They falling in love in instant. When the relationship goes between them, Yudhis real character show up. He is abusive and take control of Lala's life. He wants more and more from Lala. But this film not only offers us that, the relationship between Lala and her father and also Yudhis and his mother mix up our feeling and help us to understand their feeling. Lala father obsessively wants his daughter to be great athlete and Yudhis' mother an abusive one that shaping his character inside. This film just totally surprise me. The soundtrack just lovely with a deep lyrics. Posesif from Edwin for sure one of the best Indonesia film this year. A lot of message to thinking of from this movie. I have already watched twice. The more i think the more i love Lala as a person. Ovearall 8 out 10.

Quite impressive!

Wow this movie is over my expectation. The connections between the main characters feels so real and so strong. They even have some vlogs on youtube about their daily activities (so extra-in a good way!!). I can't imagine how this theme (jealousy) can be so attractive and enjoy to watch. Putri Marino & Adipati did it well!

Simple but deep

I guess it was such another tv drama. Slow in the beginning but almost all of parts of it seems down-to-earth but deep to understand. I love different good shoot pictures . Good movie for parents & their teenagers to enjoy together.

Exceeded my expectations

First of all, I'm not into cliche love story. I prefer realistic, bittersweet romance movies that are relatable to people life. For the first part of the movie, I got a bit bored honestly. When complication arise, I thought to myself how engaging the story have started to become. It does address actual issues around us, high expectation parents, single parents and finally the realisation that both main characters found at the end of the movie. I got to say, it took me by surprise and glad Netflix has it!

Tackling important subject elegantly

Toxic relationship is a big deal for teens, and Edwin - the director - is tackling this topic with care, attention to details, and his utmost sensitivity. The movie makes discussions on domestic abuse accessible for many. Don't miss Chicco Kurniawan screen-stealing performance!

Love, Control, and Emotional Scars

Posesif is one of Indonesia's boldest teenage drama films in portraying the darker side of young romantic relationships. Directed by Edwin and starring Putri Marino and Adipati Dolken, this film goes beyond a typical love story, delving into themes of possessiveness, control, and emotional wounds that can emerge from unhealthy attachments.

I rated it 9/10 because it delivers a strong and honest message through a realistic script, sharp dialogues, and incredibly natural performances. The chemistry between Putri Marino and Adipati Dolken feels alive, making it easy for viewers to get emotionally involved. The visuals are simple yet artistic, effectively enhancing the film's emotional atmosphere.

The film's background score is also cleverly arranged - subtle yet impactful, amplifying tension and silence in crucial moments. Posesif isn't just entertainment; it's an important reminder about the need for healthy boundaries in any relationship.

The only reason I didn't give a perfect score is due to a slight slowdown in pacing midway through the story, though it doesn't significantly diminish the film's emotional strength. Posesif is an essential watch, especially for teenagers and parents, to raise awareness about the signs of an unhealthy relationship.

Possesssheet

Posesif offers a predictable cheesy teen romance; it addresses the often-overlooked issue of an abusive relationship, and portrays a seemingly harmless courtship. The idea of how possessive relationship can occur among pubescent teenagers is well delivered but it's handled so poorly, writing wise. The female lead looks like uttering lines instead of really acting throughout the scenes. Aside from its beautiful shots, you'll get to see an utterly lame teen drama; the tedious cliche lines are just really painful to hear.
