Pacifiction (2022)
3/10
Pink Panther minus the comedy
24 April 2023
Is this film satire? Or a documentary? It's really hard to tell. Did they just say right, ad lib and walk around and we'll film your every move.

It's honestly one of the most boring films ever made. Quite literally nothing happens for 3 hours. A man in a white suit walks around does a few speeches, has a few drinks flys on a plane and goes jet biking. Call the whoop doctor, there's some hard surf action, we'll sort of, you don't actually see any surfing as the camera is too far away. That is it. Nothing happens.

The only way the film manages to interpret the fear that clouds the island is the paranoia of a very creepy man in glasses. Is he the Pink Panther? It's hard to tell. I was kinda waiting for that character to say to "I need a womb".

The film is centred around a night club and the final scene is surreal which actually stopped me from given it a 2 out of 10.

The dude behind was in such a deep sleep that when it ended and the lights came (it was 11.30pm and the staff wanted to go home) they had to wake him. I'd love to know what he thought, I'm guessing he really enjoyed Hos snoozebuster. As I'm sure you will.
