  Close 2022

  Watched 26 Feb 2023

  Relationships, moments, life, and everything are all so delicate. The formative years of being a child are so fragile and every moment shapes who someone will be in the future. Things can just change so quickly but the scariest things are the things that are permanent. When someone breaks and everyone has to fight through tears and pick up the pieces.

  One of the worst films I’ve seen all year. Scope for scope sake. Empty eye candy for mindless “ohhhs” and “ahhhs.” Ambition in the worst possible way. A film that says that it doesn’t matter if you die, you can simply be spawned back into another dimension.
