Review of First Cow

First Cow (2019)
6/10
Not for everyone
1 January 2021
I see lot of people complain about the pacing of the movie. I personally have no problem watching a slow paced movie, in fact I love slow paced movie and most movies that came from A24. My issue with this film is that I don't find any strong emotional connection to the characters. I think mainly because the story is focusing more of the theme of greediness rather than desperation for life. By the time the movie ended, I couldn't find any strong reasons to be empathetic to the characters. I think the movie could be more appealing to larger range of audience if the characters are well developed and more engaging. The movie is still watchable for me, it isn't bad. I love the aesthetic of it. But it could be more engaging.
