Review of The Hater

The Hater (2020)
7/10
Not the film Netflix advertises it as
25 January 2021
When you see this film described on Netflix you would be excuses for thinking this is a film about right wing extremism .

It isn't .

This a is character study on a young man who has serious issues. He craves attention and recognition from everyone. He's obviously clever but revels in seeing other people suffer at his own hands .

Maciej Musailowski is really good as the deranged Tomasz . You totally buy into his infatuation with Gabi which later turns into disdain.

I've not seen many Polish films and if this is the standard then maybe I should see more .

This is well worth a watch despite it being advertised as a very different type of film .
