Warning: Spoilers
"Foe" takes you on a captivating ride through a sci-fi story that unfolds at a leisurely pace. The film's visuals are simply breathtaking, seamlessly blending the natural beauty of the Australian landscape. The camera work strikes a perfect balance, capturing all the important moments without getting in the way.

While the movie tries to dive into the ups and downs of human relationships, sometimes it struggles to hit the mark. The main idea, about how clones that look like humans might be better at forming romantic connections, is interesting. But at times, the way it's presented can feel a bit over-the-top.

The actors give it their all, bringing the characters to life in a way that feels real. Yet, there are moments when the writing doesn't quite match up. Some scenes, like the intimate moments, feel a bit obligatory and disconnected from the main story.

In the end, "Foe" is a movie you'll want to watch again, especially for its stunning visuals. It transports you to a world of wonder, beautifully captured in the heart of Australia. While it may not be flawless, it offers a unique take on the complexities of human connections in a world that's always on the move.
