Nadia, Butterfly

I thought this film was going to be good as everyone keeps recommending it but it's literally horrible. The acting was bad and some scenes were far too long making you bored. I regret purchasing this film.

I couldn't really come close to Nadia and feel empathy for her. I can see the inner conflict of the character but I can't really feel it to my core. The movie has long takes which sometimes feel okay but sometimes you just want to come to the point of the shot. Great choose of colors. More than half of the movie I was waiting for something bigger to happen but it didn't. Anyhow, if I could go back in time I wouldn't watch the movie.

Drama itself is ok and straight forward. Facing retirement and her characters cause the unhappiness and depression on Nadie. I just empathize people around us have this kind of mental illness. This movie demonstrates an athlete story, another side.

The entire time I kept thinking, or hoping, that the tension they were trying to build would lead to some development and conclusion but nope. The acting is the usual Quebec quality; subpar to most every other country. And there is no storyline at all. Simply events that lead nowhere. And a very ungrateful privilege white cis Olympic winning swimmer.

This movies leads no where. They are so many long shots that means nothing. I was very disappointed. The acting was so bad...
