Review of Ophelia

Ophelia (I) (2018)
6/10
Could've been better
16 July 2021
As a person who never read Shakespeares' work and is not familiar with this story, I think this movie was just okay.

Pros - the production design and cinematography is kinda cool. There are some really cool shots throughout the movie & dresses, the location, they felt real.

Daisy Ridley was pretty good as Ophelia, it was kinda nice to see her in something other than Star Wars.

The film is overall not that bad and watchable at times, but a lot of the time I couldn't help but think it was just mid.

The characters in this movie are very flat. Even though some actors tries their best and you can kinda see it, but the script doesn't explore or develop these characters that much. They didn't feel interesting other than Ophelia. (Even her character isn't that 'great', either)

The film isn't a disaster but I think it could have been a LOT better.

Edit: Daisy Ridley actions mad scene>>
