The 80s were indeed a fun time, but the scene was also filled with harassment. While watching old movies from that era can be entertaining, it's essential to acknowledge the presence of explicit and vulgar jokes, including sexism and objectification. In this case, I'm referring to the film "Atas Boleh Bawah Boleh" (1986), a comedy starring Warkop's Dono, Kasino, and Indro.

The film is not suitable for family viewing due to its explicit humor, which may be understood by adults but not by younger generations. The jokes used in the movie are different from those we see today, and many young viewers might find them incomprehensible. However, for those who know the cultural and humor standards of that time, the film is harmless.

In terms of the story, I'm sorry to say that it's unimpressive. The plot is not particularly engaging, and the characters' actions are often illogical. The film's strength lies in its ability to poke fun at itself, acknowledging its own flaws and absurdities.

A Film Worth Preserving

Despite its shortcomings, "Atas Boleh Bawah Boleh" remains an iconic part of Indonesian comedy history. Warkop is a legendary group that has left a lasting impact on the country's entertainment industry. It's essential to preserve their legacy for future generations, even if the film's humor and jokes may not be as appreciated today.

A Note on Cultural Significance

The 1980s were a time when feminism was still a relatively new concept in Indonesia. Objectification and sexist jokes were more prevalent than they are today. While it's essential to acknowledge the cultural significance of these films, we must also recognize that some elements may be harmful or offensive., "Atas Boleh Bawah Boleh" is a film worth preserving for its historical value and as part of Warkop's legacy. However, its humor and jokes are not suitable for all audiences, particularly younger viewers.
