Crisis Identity Film

[azenyaan · 6/10 · 29 December 2021]

One of Ernest Prakasa's disappointing films. This was Ernest's first time working on a detective-themed film, but unfortunately ended in an identity crisis. The genre is mixed between comedy, thriller, and mystery, there is also action at the last minute. The comedy that is thrown is not funny and doesn't fit the scene that should be serious. The plot that was prepared was also packaged as if it was a very plot twist, but what happened was forced. Too many clues are revealed at the end and don't make sense. The scene after the completion also suddenly jumps to the identity of the main character and then a new case appears without being revealed. But it's a shame that the chosen cast is quite well-known and top-notch, with supporting interiors and properties.

Great Tika, I thought you'd bad ending

[Cirdl3 · 6/10 · 6 May 2022]

The story was not bad at first but then but the middle of the movie was kinda bad and the climax too, but then the ending was making more interesting that this movie have a lot plot twist like tika is not their kids she was a detective, and Laura child was not Arnold child but it was Andre Kids. For me it was not that bad cause I didn't expect anything abt this movie and after that tika said she was sri and seto kids, but then it was getting better.

Not great, but commendable in the effort

[pasaribuharisfadli · 6/10 · 30 December 2021]

Truth to be told, I kinda expect to feel disappointed with Ernest Prakasa's attempt to expand his typical comedy fair by entering into a mystery-thriller scene. While not entirely working, with most of the excursion being done half-baked, the film actually is still an enjoyable treat. Just wish he cut short the film's epilogue, especially the definitely unnecessary action scene.

Nice movie to watch

[celiaivanaabadi · 7/10 · 18 May 2022]

I think it's a nice movie to watch, even a little bit boring at first... but i think i understand about this movie message, Ernest wanted to tell about political problems and they corruption in our country. Also I think it's more enjoyable if they create a series with its main character "Tika". The end of the film, maybe it will more make people curious if Ernest create a trailer for the next episode (not the long one and show unnessecary scene.

Nicely done, need more effort!

[nrymcwjq · 3/10 · 2 May 2022]

Not twisting, predictable, characters all boring, even Sheila Dara's role is very unnatural. But it's a good start since crime genre is still rare in Indonesia.

GOING NOWHERE...

[andrewchristianjr · 6/10 · 16 May 2022]

This film seems to have an identity crisis. It cannot determine what genre it will lead to. If you only read the synopsis, you would definitely think that this film will have a thriller or at least a mystery genre. However, the reality is that the thriller or mystery is not felt in the film at all. The repeated plot twists actually feel too exaggerated amd make the story seem absurd.

(Film ini seolah mengalami krisis identitas, karena tidak bisa menentukan akan mengarah ke genre apa. Thriller dan misteri yang disuguhkan pada sinopsis sama sekali tidak terasa dalam film. Plot twist yang bertubi-tubi justru terasa terlalu berlebihan sehingga membuat ceritanya terkesan absurd)

Dissapointing

[priandoyo · 1/10 · 8 May 2022]

At first I have very huge expectation for this movie, based on the trailer, I get the sense of Knives Out (2019) themes also Us (2019) Jordan Peele's. I am a bit worry with the execution of things that haunted all the Indonesian "copy paste" movie just like Teka Teki Tika. I think the worst part is the end part where the movie try very hard to describe Tika's role as secret agent, very unnecessary.

Good movie with clever twist

[juandogs · 14 September 2022]

I don't understand why much people think this movie is boring. Actually this movie had good start and absolutely good ending. And most important, there is almost question had been answered. For example, like who is actually Tika and why she has very good at fight.

This movie had some minor, like to much comedy. I thought that ruined this movie. I hope if there another sequel, the director should limit or remove comedy from this movie and make this movie pure thriller.

At the end, this movie is good movie with some exception. I salute to the people who make this movie because this type of movie has little audience in Indonesia.

to not hoping too much

[veggiepan · 7/10 · 7 May 2022]

Looking for something to watch for lunch and stumbled upon this one. As i remember how ernest 'advertised' this title in pandji? If im not mistaken? Anyway. To not hoping too much as im clicking this movie on d+ is definitely a sure thing to do.

Technicality? Super nice.

Plot wise? So-so.

Overall? Uh......?

I enjoyed the quality of the production. Super nice to watch. But overall, not really surprised or amazed me. First, the tika character, was hoping she can be more versatile with her tone throughout the movie. The playful wicked character in her not really stand out, imo. Second, is it just me or the pace of the movie feels slow? Something was stretched out or unnecessary to put. The comedy, the action at the epilogue, jane's character esp. I feel like she supposed to be refreshing yet she is not.

Gave 7 mostly for appreciate the production of this movie. Try again, ernest.

Ridiculous riddle

[alicecroquette · 3/10 · 18 December 2022]

The title of the movie is tika's riddle, but the build up of the mystery is all over the place and the conclusion is a betrayal of expectation.

While the 1st act is great, everything falls down afterwards.

The plot twist doesn't add anything to the story, the unfolding of the plot and the uncovering of the mystery depend too much on the exposition, and the other characters' arc beside Tika and mr budiman is somewhat irrelevant to the main plot.

And the audacity to spend 1/5 duration at the end of the movie just to tease a spy-action-sequel tease... Oh my...

It would be better to expect/advertise this movie as drama comedy than thriller.

Just that

[charliegiovani-88737 · 3/10 · 6 June 2022]

Yes it entertaining, but the film is so not like ernest that who make it, its like, the film lost ernest touch.

I know its the first time, but i am so disappointent and my be if he want to try make another mystery movie. I will not miss and stil try to watch. Cause i know first its always not the best

three word to this film is : ooo just like that, bad fighting scene, and the plot is not really good enought. Especially the plot twist its just badd :( sorry for the bad critic.

Stick to your comedy film

[abielgacho · 1/10 · 7 August 2022]

I watch this film for the sake of ernest prakasa, but I think you better stick to your previous genre as usual to be made: comedy. Because ita actual flop. I just feel sometime opera soap better than this one. How could you make this kind of film, Ernest?

Uhhh

[maisie33 · 5/10 · 25 June 2022]

Once the trailer came out, I was hyped because finally Indonesia made this kind of genre. But when I watched this movie, I felt like everything was so half-assed. The mystery, the comedy, like, I had no idea what kind of movie was this supposed to be. The comedy was cringe af, I couldn't enjoy it. And they put it in the wrong times that resulted in ruining the thrilling vibes. The twists were forced. The actors played like they read the whole script.

I kinda loved the scoring, though. It's pretty good. The building too.
