Indie Classic
26 January 2023
I like Indie films and this one feels like a classic of the early 2000's, telling a story set in the 1980's with a gritty aesthetic and punk grunge soundtrack including The Stranglers Nice and Sleazy. I notice that Jim Sturgess and August Diehl have roles here and they both went out to have strong careers, not to mention Elliot ( Ellen ) Page. The interactions between the young street life characters feel authentic to me and I was invested to know what would happen to the vulnerable young woman at the heart of a disturbing story about how good intentions can go horribly wrong when we turn our individuality over to an all powerful leader.

Complicated but gd at 2nd watch
10 October 2022
Leave the songs, though they look gd separately and not necessary for this kind of movie, The story narration is great. If you want to understand and enjoy the nmovie, watch it 2nd time.. The red sanders smuggling process explanation was eye opener and its so detailing unlike in other movies came with same backdrop. The best aspect of this movie screenplay is how it uses several investigations to reveal the mystery. Internal twist was unexpected but missing something, may be usual camera and editing opticals. Best fights in recent days and i like the train fight a lot and watched repeat. Hindi dubbing is not that well but i watched some portions in original. The item song is good. I didnot like portion when suddenly song comes in when serious scenes are going on. I think this director has no experience in placing songs. His unique style of narration of scenes and story is very good though.
