Review of After Yang (2022) by Bertobellamy — 24 Jan 2023
'After Yang' raises the typical questions your regular independent sci-fi movie does, but its slow cinema approach, unique aesthetic, and stellar performances by Colin Farrell and Justin H. Min keep you hooked most of the time. Kogonada's meditation about the natural and the artificial converging poses questions about mortality and the meaning of being human. The film explores the power of memories, grief, and the new existential dilemmas of a very plausible future.
Also, this is a fine example of a very budget-limited utilizing its resources at maximum to make it look otherwise.
Oh, and I just watched 'M3GAN,' and I couldn't help to think that this is the same film but with a chill robot.
