Pemukiman Setan Review!

Image
  Pernah tidak mendengarkan pepatah atau perkataan, mencari jarum dalam jerami? Jika iya, maka film ini mendeskripsikan pepatah tersebut. Sebuah berlian di tumpukan rongsokan yang sudah usang, lama, dan tidak baru. Charles Gozali kembali lagi menghadirkan sebuah suguhan baru melalui filmnya, Pemukiman Setan. Namun, sayangnya film ini tidak sebagus film Qodrat.        Berawal dari penceritaan si karakter utama, Alin. Ia memiliki seorang adik, dan ia merupakan seorang perempuan miskin, mencari uang untuk membayar utang yang ayahnya miliki. Alin pun berangkat bersama dengan Gani dan temannya, Fitrah dan Zia, untuk "namu" ke sebuah rumah yang menurut dari intel, penghuninya sedang pergi. Dari rumah inilah, berbagai misteri terkuak, dan merusak rencana mereka yang awalnya untuk mencuri, menjadi mencari cara untuk bertahan hidup dari bangkitnya seorang iblis.      Dari segi cerita dan pacing film terasa nyaman untuk ditonton dan tidak terasa terlal...

Monster (2023) Review!

  Monster by Hirokazu Kore-eda is a coming of age film about two boys, and the life surrounding them, in a way explaining the title means. Monster is a word that is closely related to something terrible, a creature, a horror being, something that is not human, even not normal. And in this film context, it's like putting a pig's brain into a human head. Such is the description to Hoshikawa, Mugino Minato's friend.

And the story revolves around those, starting from the perspective of the mother of Minato, the teacher, then Minato himself.

Pokemon Concierge - Season 1 Review!

Pokemon Concierge is a fun short series, a really short one at that. It's only 4 episode long, and each was around 10 to 20 minutes. And that is the only negative thing about this show! It's amazingly animated with the stop motion style. The show is simple, and successfully shows each of the characters uniqueness. Yeah, there's not a lot of pokemon that is rarely being shown, like most of them, I bet people know. Like Psyduck, Mudkip, and many more. So in a way there's not a lot to talk about this show, other than that I really enjoyed it, and want more of it. Good job Netflix and Pokemon! 10/10!!!
