No Way Out (IV) (2022)
4/10
Meandering relationship drama
13 August 2022
Not sure how I ended up watching this but I did, there is some good things to be taken away from this but overall its mainly pretty bad due to the unnecessary long brooding shots of the lead actor.

The lead is a handsome chap and it was his story but if you could take 50 mins away from this 85m long film and you could tell the story perfectly well, the lead actor was decent with a modicum of over acting but watchable. The lead female, however mumbles through a lot of her lines, supporting cast was fine.

There are a couple of sec scenes and the overall tone of the film is to try and be sexy and brooding, it gets about half way there but becomes a bit too in your face. The story is one of a toxic relationship while never realising this until its too late., hence the title I guess.

Overall its well made but fairly pointless, not enough art to be arthouse., not enough suspense to be a thriller, things are thrown in to look cool but it leaves things disjointed.

I don't think I could recommend this to anyone except as a showreel.
