The Neighbor (II) (2017)

Slow pacing doesn't mean a movie is bad -- its just not for everyone

[8/10 · 28 January 2018]

I enjoyed this film for many reasons: its a simple, well written story of a good samaritan caught in a tragic thought process. It is told from a single point of view, and everything about the writing and direction of the film remains true to it. This is a contemplative character piece, not a weekend blockbuster. It is going to be slower by nature, but ultimately appreciated by cinephiles.
