Review of Residue

Residue (2020)
6/10
Experimental

At times this worked - and at other times it just seemed too experimental.

It flips back and forth between present and past - present friends and family - and how things use to be. Also there is a a lot of imagination going on - as in what the main character wishes to occur. I thought the prison interview scene towards the end that took place in the forest was effective in showing what could have been.

I didn't find the scenes with his "girlfriend" convincing - she just seemed to come out of nowhere - just added for affect (i.e. eye candy).

If you like the avant garde this may be for you.

There is no resolution to finding his past friend - so this is like life.
