Yesterday afternoon I went hunting for DVDs/VCDs with Izan. Nope, we didn't go for bajakan ya, but rather 'ori' CDs. Well I practise this double standard; I do bajakan Hollywood films and original local movies.Anyways, I got Afdlin's Baik Punya Cilok (for my parents) and Indonesian Joko Anwar's Janji Joni.
Umaakkkk aiiiii!!! I'm in love! I fell in love instantaneously with the flick!!! I've heard whispers saying that Janji Joni is a good fast paced, fun film but I didn't expect myself to be this smitten.
It is a feel good film, a romantic comedy you'd want to see over and over and over again. Janji Joni is smart and at the same time a little bit cockoo. 'Tis blessed with an unforgettable cast. The story revolves around the bioskop. The movie somehow reminded me of Cinema Paradiso but with a dab of Amelie and a little Alfie.
I so love the camera works, well its artsy fartsy in moderation.
Oh and I reckon Janji Joni offers the best collection of grooves to ever accompany an Indonesian film. Think electronica, psychedelic rock and retro pop. The soundtracks injected adrenaline into the whole experience.
"Cerita ni lebih bagus dari cerita Afdlin tadi" a quote from Bapak guwe.
Definitely a must see!!!
