Review of Greed

Greed (I) (2019)
5/10
A valid film that's comes across bizarre for lack of focus

Greed certainly shows an interesting side to the obvious character its portraying and making a comment on the fashion and business financial industry, revealing something the average person rarely considers and the movie certainly has a point in its tale of how so many are affected by one mans ambition and greed. Coogan is also great as the by turn charismatic and nasty main character. The problem is the messy way it gets there, I wasn't really sure whether this was a black comedy or a partial serious biography story based on reality. There's quite a cast of characters involved as the story is regarding how so many are whipped up with one man's whims - maybe the narrative jumps around too much to have the full impact which kind of arrives at the very very end. Reminded me of another cinematic gem filmed on Mykanos - Island of Death - must be something about the feta cheese.
