Rheview #5 Tilik (2018): What is TILIK anyway?

Hello,, again

Ahh it's been a while (actually, it's been a long time) since I wrote my last review (sorry about that). I'd been very busy lately (doing hobby: playing game) is considered as busy right? :)) But this viral short movie make me want to take a look at it and do the review.  Haven't watch it yet? Click here~ 


Tilik (2018): Introduction of typical Indonesian "culture"

As a non-Javanese, I barely understand the title until ~70% of the movie when one of the character mention "tilik" and translated as "pay a visit". This confuses me a lot because "tilik" in Bahasa Indonesia means "checklist", so I was searching for "what checklist was going to be discussed?"

Bu Tejo--a loquacious mayoress wanna be--and her villager friends were going to visit their mayoress who was sick and was admitted to the hospital in the bigger city. To burn time, they make a chitchat and even spread rumors about others, typical Indonesian housewife.

Rheview #3 Bridezilla (2019): Boundary between personal and professional life.

Hello, welcome back!

I'd been busy doing my course lately. And now it comes the time to write a RHEVIEW. You may notice that many of my reviews are on romance/drama genre. You notice it right, my favourite genre is drama, especially that consist of family or friendship problems. And you know what, this movie provides those.

Let's get going

Rheview #2 The Gift (2018): Your presence is my best gift from God.

The Gift (2018): Your presence is my best gift from God.

This movie reminds me of my friend's presentation video. It was about sight, glaucoma, and human umbilical blood cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUBCMSCs, more or less, I forget the exact name). We need to increase our gratitude that we can still watch this movie and read this review with our normal eyes. Well, even refraction impairment still can be thankful for: we still can see everything with assistance, right?

Before spoiling it further, let's just start the 30 minutes review.

Rheview #1 Malaikat Tanpa Sayap (2012): Better to have heart than wings, devils have wings too

Malaikat Tanpa Sayap (2012): Better to have heart than wings, devils have wings too

Hello

I finally managed to post something else since the first post I made on the 3rd of May. I overwhelmed by negative thoughts: "what if I still have grammatical mistakes?" "what if others disagree with my opinions?" andddd several other what-if-s.

To make it more interesting, let's try to make a challenge: I have to finish the review only in a maximum of 30 minutes. So let's get started, shall we?

About this page

Writing again.
It's been several years since the last time I'm writing on a blog or something that is actually a proper place to write.

To make it personal, I'd like to introduce the philosophy of my blog. Rhewrite comes from two words, Rheza and write. Aside from its literal meaning (Rheza's place to write), it's also depicted that I'm rhe-writing (read: rewrite).

This blog is made so I can share my thoughts/opinions/ideas that rarely have a place outside my brain. Sure, I can write it on my personal notes (still, really personal things would be vaulted for myself), but hey, I can share it with you, and we can analyze & expand those thoughts together right? Besides, writings will make me "eternal" on the internet. I hope what I share gives something valuable to you guys.

I love Indonesian, but I want to write here using English until I can speak and write as fluently as I could with Indonesian (I'm a grammar nazi on Indonesian, btw).

Feel free to say halo/hello/hi/assalamualaykum. All languages are accepted :)

ps: please correct my English, it's very meaningful for me :)

Rheview #12 Daylight (2015): we can't get everything, and that's reality
