Critics Reviews

Marty Brown Common Sense Media Like many horror series, Joko Anwar's Nightmares and Daydreams suffers from a lack of truly original stories (tough to find a whole season of those at one time), but Anwar has a strong visual style. Jul 22, 2024 Full Review Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse Despite some cliches here and there, “Joko Anwar's Nightmares and Daydreams" evidently has a quality that points more towards a movie than a TV episode, both in terms of context and production values. Rated: 7 Jun 23, 2024 Full Review Jorge Loser Espinof It is very sparse in scares and that cosmic fear that it constantly references, plus the episodes move slowly, and everything happens at the end while the rest is not even very well written. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 2.5/5 Jun 21, 2024 Full Review Joel Keller Decider ... The episodes will likely vary in quality, with some stories being better than others. Like we said, the creepy hooded cult seems to be a throughline for this series, and it’s certainly something that will keep us intrigued. Jun 17, 2024 Full Review Paul Lê Bloody Disgusting On their own though, not every episode is as successful as the next — a rule of thumb for all anthologies — but together they make up pieces of a mighty journey into the headspace of Indonesia’s most innovative filmmaker. Rated: 3.5/5 Jun 17, 2024 Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut Genre fans are offered a rich banquet here. Tuck in. Rated: 4/5 Jun 15, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

julio w even though eps 1&7 still many weakness especially the CGI & too rushed ending but the the whole story are quite unique for Sci-Fi genre, grounded situations about Indonesian society, joko's visual style always impressive and the weird things i always feel like david lynch style, hope there's a next season! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/17/24 Full Review H N This show is brilliant! To stories are compelling and creative. Can't wait to the next season already. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/09/24 Full Review NEON 1 The cgi sometimes is questionable and some of the acting is lame but the story really build a good foundation for the next season. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/17/24 Full Review Himanshu D Anwar's Nightmares and Daydreams" is a brilliantly crafted show that captures the essence of imagination, fear, and hope in a way that few series manage to achieve. From the very first episode, I was hooked by its compelling narrative and beautifully developed characters. The storytelling is top-notch, weaving together Anwar's darkest nightmares with his most whimsical daydreams seamlessly. Each episode offers a perfect balance of suspense and wonder, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats while also touching their hearts. The show's ability to blend these elements is truly commendable. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/14/24 Full Review Audience Member There are no nightmares or daydreams here to see, just a waste of time. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/13/24 Full Review Mr I Welcoming the 1st science fiction of Indonesia's provocative di rector. It's creepy and sassy at the same time. You can't get enough of digging every layer from each episode. Good job. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/05/24 Full Review Read all reviews
