Review by insightflow-20603

To be precise, I watched 1 hour and 15 minutes of this acclaimed film. Another hour in transport, the fare, and the cinema ticket - for something which I can only describe as a deliberate disregard for the audience. Any odd YouTube film displays more effort and substance. In Alcarras, we are forced to watch the frenzied movement and meaningless chatter of bland characters, only one of whom - the patriarch - has some dramatic potential. The picture is consciously uncinematic, aiming to probably enroll us in the story through hectic closeups, but I found out I couldn't care less whether they end up with peaches or solar panels.
