    A curiosity in many ways - and I kind of love it
    In 'Mo' I recognize a somewhat odd conglomeration - a tightly abbreviated runtime, a quick pace, and for both those aspects, also an unbothered "slice of life" feel to the exposition that fills effectively the first third. That sense continues even into the second half, and even as the chief cast inhabit specific characters with distinct personalities, wherein their performances are so natural and fluid with material so uninvolved that the acting seems as organic as though part and player were one and the same. In one breath these qualities make the characters, and the course of events, more awkward, more sympathetic, more aggravating, or more bemusing in turn - weirdly heightening the feelings with realism even as the picture carries a decidedly muted tone.

    Why, even the narrative rather surprises, simple as it is, and writer-director Radu Dragomir's screenplay at large. The premise suggests a story much more active and dynamic, while in reality the sense of drama is slight and gradual until the last 20 minutes, with near passivity as it unfolds - and if predictable and familiar all along, no less cringe-worthy for the fact of it. As the cast so easily slip into their roles, there's nonetheless an underhanded diversity to the faintly fictitious figures: Ursu, fiercely intelligent and pointedly duplicitous; Vera, reserved but spirited; - and Mo, impulsive and forthright, but with hidden depths and vulnerabilities. Dialogue and scene writing are simultaneously varied and tantalizing, and so matter-of-fact and true to life that they yet feel unremarkable. And the overall plot, into which all these are woven, is marked with all the same descriptors: common, yet absorbing; subdued, yet vivid; evoking uncertainty as a viewer, but also strong feelings and engagement.

    This is not going to be for everyone, and I hardly know who I'd even recommend it to as the picture rides such a delicate line of somewhat aloof near-uneventfulness. However, to my delight, this is an unexpectedly rich viewing experience. The acting, such as it is, is outstanding, with Razvan Vasilescu, Madalina Craiu, and especially Dana Rogoz offering up fine displays of range, nuance, and strength of personlity as Ursu, Vera, and Mo, respectively. Cinematographer Liviu Mãrghidan ensures a vibrant, pleasing visual presentation, while those managing sound design provide pristine audio. I admire the simple but enticing aesthetics of Adina Bucur's costume design, and Domnica Bodogan and Iulia Roseanu make fine contributions with their hair and makeup work. Honestly, even for as peculiar as 'Mo' is, it is a roundly excellent film.

    One should carefully consider the types of movies they enjoy before clicking to watch this, but I for one recognize terrific value that has gone broadly unrecognized. I think all on hand did a great job to bring this feature to life, and 'Mo' earns my hearty favor as something both a little off the beaten path, and walking a well-trod ground. Cheers!
