Scripts films serve as study data sources. Thus, there are four types of flouting of the maxims committed by the characters in the film. The maxim of quantity is violated by providing incorrect and unnecessary information, the maxim of quality is violated by providing false information, the maxim of relation is violated which is irrelevant, and the maxim of manner is violated by providing information that is not clear.

Based on the research on the maxims flouted, this study concludes utterance that maxims are still flouted in films. It is necessary to fulfill four types of maxims in order to have a cooperative and effective discourse.
