Audience Member so fresh, so real, and yes, gay man is a girl's best friend!!! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member :) Great nice proof of development in indonesian movie. Rachel Maryam is still a bad actress though Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Honest portrait, excellent dialog, interesting story, and very good cinematography. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Everytime i watched this movie, just simply makin me put in this kinda state where im happy and sad at the same time. Happy, coz thrill to know that [i think] no longer feelin im just like the last gay on earth. En, why do Dinata make gay with those fabulous Big City's scene. Esp, Sudiro in that age for havin kinda confusin of gender issues is tottally out of date. Im havin those issues was in my High School's era. En, i think most of us are too. So, its kinda ticklin. But, then again, im still makin applause for her, for makin such OUT movie about US. Thanks, Dinata! I <3 U. U're such GAY's best gurlfriend. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Funny and clever movie. A real one of its kind. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member ceritanya menggambarkan kehidupan di Jakarta sehari-hari, dengan mengangkat sebuah topik yang masih dianggap tabu oleh masyarakat kita. karya nia dinata yang terbaik menurut saya. :) Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
