Deep in the Forest (I) (2021)
3/10
The movie should have tried to be a good movie instead of advocing a pollitical take
2 June 2022
The movie is revolving around a mixed race family where the mother is a left wing supporter and she went to a meeting of a left wing social club.

Because there is a civil war between the left and the right and the movie portrait the right wing as the Nazis from WW2, and the right wing side is building concentration camps for leftist supporters. The right wing is also using members list from a club as such the protagonist is going to as a tool to find leftist supporters

There are major flaws here: (1) Delusional take.

(2) There is no visible war. Only people inside 1 house talking between each other.

(3) The family is in a "pre-arranged safe house" but they have no satellite phone or internet and no suitable self protection measurements.

This movie is like watching the news panel members talking about a war, rather then an actual war movie. If I would like to watch people on the screen telling me what to think, I have like 50 channels for that in every language.

The movie had no character development, no interesting story besides the first 10 minutes and had a pointless ending.

This movie is like watching SNL - they focus too much on advocating their ideas but they forget to be entertaining. Sad, the start of the movie was promising.
