The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
I love Peter Gabriel's music, so I do not trash this production lightly. The so called "camera work" is a disaster and very poorly shot. Too grainy, to shaky, and unable to center the subjects properly.All new directors should watch at least 3 Scorsese movies to learn how to tell a story with the camera.Instead, too many directors think shaky camera moves and bad splicing is somehow stylish. Any production should be able to tell a story on its own merits. Don't make the audience work to understand what you are trying to say. This is truly awful.
