... while the effort is admirable, the film didn't particularly effective in conveying its message. After starting on the right footing, the film struggled to find its fair share of the approach on its narrative choice. The homage to Indonesian 80's B-movies was not entirely convincing either.
Plot summary

A decent social commentary about toxic masculinity, but...
BRILLIANT
VENGEANCE IS MINE, ALL OTHERS PAY CASH is wildly uneven, but also truly wild in its best moments. Strong cinematography and editing with a real throwback quality that makes even the less interesting stretches intriguingly watchable.
Good story telling un-matural dialogue
Its really a good story with nice story telling.
Understand the movie try to follow the original novel by using formal language "aku" "kamu" which also should be fine, as I read the novel also use the same terms and sounds okay and natural when you read and imagine it.
However in the movie the way the actors use these words in dialogue/conversation its not flowing naturally as most of the intonation during each dialogue remind me watching high school drama where spoken sentences.look cut up. This really disturbing me to watch it. Probably saying it casually and follow it with the right expression will make the movie more enjoyable.
