Review of Foe

Foe (2023)
4/10
[4.2] Liquid in a drought
11 November 2023
Warning: Spoilers
A dismal movie with just good acting by Saoirse Ronan, Paul Mescal and Aaron Pierre, if by good acting one includes sitting, chatting, punching the walls and hungrily staring at rosy skin. We already live in dystopian world, we don't need on top of that dystopian science fiction shoved down our throat.

Strangely though, the movie starts good and interesting, but quickly delves into torpor and theatrical limited scenes. They didn't even bother to make a good ending for it. The number of times that I saw characters drinking bottled beer and taking long shots showers is inconceivable in a 1:50h movie!

The only things interesting were the yellow-lit gadget on the back of his neck and "him" being suctioned out in that plastic "quality" bag.
