Just as Gavin Hood, Fernando makes he's first movie after winning the Oscar. I found this one a bit better than Rendition, wich, it's very similar. Hood goes against the US, and you find in this one a little, but still solid kick to british outside policy.
I loved this movie (although, is not by any chance as good as City of God) because it's complete. You have the not politically issue, treated until the end, and it somehow works the ending better than Rendition. I keep comparing the movies because, althought the treat 2 different subjects, are very similar in spirit. The director has a wonderful eye for putting the camera in the right place, and also a fantastic use of colors. I'd had need a bit more of strong acting, but, overall, it was everything fantastic. |
