To the Wonder (2012)
Long music video
"To the Wonder" is a great movie visually and the cinema photography is very beautiful through out the hole film. But there is nothing new to see in this film. Storyline is painfully slow and boring. I felt the hole film was overly long music video or some luxury perfume commercial: all the actors are very beautiful and a lot of the moving scenes with the playful or sensual moments feel very commercial. Even the tone of the film feels kind a poetic, it's generally feels pretentious. I do have say that I haven't seen any other movie with this type of storytelling, it's unique but not in a good way.
Locked In (2023)
The storyline is weak!
I had my hopes up when I saw this film was on the number one spot at my coutrys Netflix chart this week. I really like Famke Jansen, but why did she have to be apart of this production? With her charisma there should be better roles for her. She is too talented for this type of conveyer belt productions. The film in itself looks good, but it feels more like a long music video. The idea for the story is great, but it doesn't unfortunately take off. Boring and predictable story. Even the genre of Locked In should mystery, by it is impossible to find that. Maybe the mystery is why was this even done in first place.
