Who payed the critics
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
I don't like giving critiques any further than "I liked it/I didn't" because I don't want to tell another artist how I would do things; it's my job to make things the way I want, and let others do it the way they want, and a written critique in the middle of the internet by an anonymous poster doesn't carry enough context for the filmmaker to figure out much about why I felt the way I felt.Nevermind that though because in no moment during this film I thought something was out of place or badly executed, enjoyable from beginning to end, some moments made me feel a bit nostalgic and others (if not the whole movie) made me excited about the craft of cinema.Watch it alone, relaxed, maybe at night in the dark with a good pair of headphones.
