Review of Waves (2019) by Netflic — 09 Dec 2019

This is a third film by a young and very talented director Trey Edward Shults.

Shultz not only directs his movies but writes the scripts for them as well.

I loved his previous two movies "Krysha" and "It Comes At Night".

This film is about love, forgiveness, family relations, living through difficult times (not necessarily financially difficult but hard nevertheless).

Two protagonists are a brother and a sister, both teenagers close to high school graduation.

First part of the movie is mostly about Tyler, the second one is about Emily.

The film is sincere, psychologically deep and profound, rich with undertones.

Great performances allow characters to be believable and realistic.

I would highly recommend this film.
