Gozo

Well there's something here, but I'm not really certain what it all does for me as a film. Theme of obsession is t play, but this film has a meandering pace that belies this theme. There is something that is murky in the plot that does pull to want to know what is happening, but at the end, the sum of the total from the film is lacking. Decent acting and good production are undermined by a weak plot that only loosely crosses the laces, never tying the knot.

This is not a cheap movie, the cinematography and acting is good. The plot is awful and after you finish this movie you will feel uncomfortable for a long time. I was waiting for it to get better the last third and ending of the movie beyond ruins what could have been good. Trust me hard pass this.

No coherent plot. A meandering go nowhere nothing happens type of movie. Yes the acting is fair and the cinematography and exiting quite impressive but to what end? It's an unfocused screenplay which translates into a disastrous movie. The lead man is absolutely despicable in a stupid annoying way. Lead woman is gorgeous big is trapped in this incredibly dumb script. Catch her in A Single Shot. They movie is brilliant! This movie is the opposite. Skip it. You will have missed nothing. 4 stars are for acting and editing and cinematography in an otherwise dreadful effort.

The rest they could have developed better. First off, as an American, I just want to say that the American guy gave me creeper vibes the whole time. He was 100% the type. The Mediterranean locals were portrayed as unattractive, lazy creeps/bullies, and the Brits were portrayed like Brits on holiday in the Mediterranean, if you know what that means. This movie plays out exactly how you would expect an indie trying to be subtle does, like a movie whose writer/director doesn't understand subtlety doesn't mean the absence of essential parts of the plot. Towards the last third, I started hitting that 30-second skip button with some regularity yet I still want my time back.
