Dreadfully Boring
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
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?
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
