@heavyimage Wow, I can't agree with the second half of this review at all. Reviewer has an axe to grind and is unwilling to consider their characterisation is artificially narrowed just to keep the millstone going.
@wohali Yeah I think I'm too curious about this movie for this review to fully stop me. But this feels pretty damning in places.
@heavyimage I tihnk reading all these reviews before watching is is going to colour your experience.
@heavyimage But I strongly dispute that the director is trying to shift responsibility from the rich to the poor as a sole motivation, rather than hinting that maybe, just maybe, there are no absolutes in the issues at hand.
But of course that particular publication isn't one known for nuance.....
@wohali yeah, I'm particularly interested to see how I feel about this point when watching.
@wohali fair.
I have a lot of patience for weird experimental stuff above and beyond lots of film reviewers (and partners of mine, it turns out!) so I don't usually make a final decision from any given review.
Did you enjoy the film?
@heavyimage I did! and I can see how, if you tune out after one particular film (because it upset you), you might miss the introspection the denoument gives you to consider all angles.
@wohali I will report back!
