About This Movie

Catatan Si Boy is this curious blend of drama and romance that dives into the tensions between social class and familial expectations. The story follows Boy, a rich kid with a good heart, who falls for a college student. The pacing feels typical of the era—slow at times, yet it captures the character's internal struggles well. There’s an interesting contrast between Boy’s privileged lifestyle and the rigid expectations from his girlfriend's parents. Performances are genuine, with a certain charm that makes the characters relatable despite their wealth. It has a light-hearted atmosphere at times, but the underlying themes of love versus obligation give it a deeper edge. The practical effects are minimal but serve the narrative without distraction, allowing for the emotional beats to resonate.
