Eelam (2019)

Review by praanavrox

Eelam

3/10

Confusing disappointment

The movie was going for a complex, nuanced and theatrical spectacle, however, it was poorly executed. There was no coherency between the scenes or the dialogue of the characters nor was there any character or theme to fall back to that gave the surreal aspect any weight. I can definitely see heart and care in this work, but in all honesty, no aspect of this film was "deep" or thought-provoking, something one would expect from an art film like this. I found myself struggling to piece together what the creators meant to accomplish or meant to convey with every scene before I could even come to my own thoughts and interpretations of it. The acting was sub-par and was kind of distracting. The dialogue and dubbing was a little jarring as well.

All in all it WAS a surreal experience, but not because of the work in and of itself, but because of its incoherent nature.
