I put this movie off for years because I wanted to watch the original before seeing it. It never happened so finally I just took the plunge...and I wish I would have watched the original first. The visuals were obviously impressive and it was aesthetically pleasing, but I just wasn’t fully invested or impressed with the overall story. Most likely I would have loved it a lot more with the background of the first movie. Not a popular opinion but it didn’t live up to the hype for me
Everything in moderation, except Mads Mikkelsen. Every day of the week and twice on Sundays. Sköl
Powerful movie with Oscar worthy performances from Riz Ahmed and Paul Raci. While I could have watched another hour of Ruben engaging with the deaf children and using his drums experience to teach them about percussion and sound, I think the movie took a more realistic turn and didn’t give you the happy ending that is often found in reality. It’s a subject matter that doesn’t get enough attention
Watched for the first time in probably 7 years or so. Was one of my favorite movies and college and it holds up nicely. Violence is gratuitous but it has a very authentic feel and it’s very well made. Also have to appreciate that they were able to use unknown actors to play the major roles. Pretty incredible movie
