SEEN 5 SEPT
A quiet, understated film that trusts its audience more than most recent releases have. No dramatic score cues telling you how to feel — the performances do that work instead. Some viewers will find the deliberate pace frustrating, and that's a fair criticism. The final act payoff justifies the patience it demands from you earlier on. Cinematography is restrained in the best way, letting scenes breathe without over-directing them. This won't be for everyone, but for the right audience it'll stick with you long after the credits.

Adding this to my list based on your review.
Honestly this deserved a much wider release.
Criminally overlooked at the time of release.
I wanted to love this more than I did.
Some of the VFX was rough but the story carried it.
That one long take in the middle — did anyone else notice it?
The pacing in the first hour is genuinely excellent.
Might be the director's most confident film yet.
Seen it twice now and picked up new details both times.
Been recommending this to everyone who'll listen.
This is the kind of film that needs a big screen.
Caught this on OTT last night, your review was spot on.
Hard disagree on the rating but I respect the write-up.
Still thinking about the ending days later.
The supporting cast is what makes this work.
That's a fair point about the pacing, didn't notice it on my first watch.
This is the kind of film that needs a big screen.
This is such an underrated one, glad you reviewed it.
Honestly the trailer did this film no favours.
Put this on expecting background noise, ended up glued to it.
