Spoor

This film wasn't what I expected. It is a dramatic movie with a mystery tangled into it.

I'll start with the good things. This film has great nature scenes that have been nicely caught on the camera. It is, at heart, about the killing and poaching animals and how people are blind to the senselessness of their actions, failing to see that animals are living creatures. The plot of the movie was a bit shaky for me but I was reading subtitles and they don't always have the movie being translated as intended. The acting was just ok.

The bad things. This movie is much longer than it should be. There were times where I was losing interest because it was moving along so slow. I didn't feel that the character builds came across well and some of the side stories were presented in odd ways. I had expected this to be far more suspenseful than it was.

If you are looking for a drama about animal rights you may enjoy this.
