Review of Polar

Polar (I) (2019)
10/10
Pure escapism by talented individuals
23 February 2019
Did you enjoy John Wick? I could stop there but Polar is the next generation of kill films. There was a comedic thread throughout offsetting the horror and a feeling that someone was (masterfully) sending up the genre with a deliberate, stark contrast between Duncan Vizla's story arc and the clown-like quality of the bad guys. This was time well spent as it was very clear the film had been made by people who understood the genre and that audiences want a layered and meta approach to the storytelling. The plot had depth, twists and a satisfying ending. Easily deserves a 10 for its genre.
