The Father (I) (2020)
5/10
Disappointing
15 December 2023
I really hate to say it, because I wanted to love it, but I found this boring, slow and not particularly memorable. It could have been extremely emotional and hard-hitting, but it simply wasn't. It almost felt a little bit stiff. Of course there were some standout moments (like the end, for example), but nothing that truly hit me on a deeper level... Overall, I just didn't really feel impacted by anything. It's such a shame because I loved the idea behind this movie (seeing dementia from the person's own perspective), but the execution simply ended up lacking for me. I know I'm in the minority though, so don't mind me.
