Suffocation (2021)
A Misguided Mess
15 July 2021 - 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.
As I struggled to get through the torturous 80-minute runtime, I found myself wondering "what's this film really about?" It has ideas for sure. It has a lot of scenes for sure. But it's all crammed into an unfocused story with no real beginning, middle, or end. Scenes just happen with no real connective tissue. It feels like a screenplay for a theater production, a poorly written theater production at that, that then forced into narrative film format. Despite its good intentions, the emotions that it strives to achieve ultimately fall flat, and the overbearing and constant musical score make it more unintentionally hysterical than they wanted. But it looked pretty I guess?
