Janji Joni, Joko Anwar’s directorial debut, delivers a tightly packed and uniquely told story set within a single day, featuring compelling performances—especially from Nicholas Saputra—and cleverly intertwined characters. The film’s engaging narrative flows smoothly, supported by fitting music and a surprisingly intricate plot, though some logical inconsistencies arise regarding timing and travel between key locations. Despite minor flaws, Janji Joni remains an entertaining and memorable film well worth repeated viewing.
