Damsel (2024)
7/10
Dark Fairytale
8 March 2024
A movie with a princess and a dragon. A really simple story, so i had low expectations, but they were exceeded at almost every aspect.

First of all, the dragon. My god, the dragon was pure perfection. Best design and CGI i have seen for a dragon, and that includes GoT. Amazing.

The atmosphere was also spot on. Especially with how the backstory worked out to be. The dressing department also needs a raise. I also loved that there were moments of gore that i did not expect this type of movie to have. Thank god that directors are starting to let their movies have a more realistic tone.

Millie was pretty good, not great but also not bad. When she acts like a heroine she pretty much nails it, but when she acts like a normal person i find her a bit too bland. The father and the queen mother were also pretty good, everyone else was okayish.

It is a great movie for an evening that you want to get lost to a (quite dark) fairytale story. I recommend it for sure!
