Review of Annihilation (2018) by Tryasummersault — 05 Mar 2018
3.1/5 Quite underwhelming other than the visuals honestly, and the epitome of style over substance. Plotting was quite nonsensical and directionless.Some very hollow acting other than Portman and some extremly unnecessary sex flashbacks injected into the film for nothing but shock value.
Tried to be way deeper than it was. The only truly exciting scene was in the house with the mutated bear. Both this film and ex machina had extremely misleading trailers making the appear to be sci/fi horror’s and they were drawn out sci fi dramas that lacked anything remotely worthy of being hailed masterpieces.
The whole supposed deeper message and symbolization interpretation that so many of these self proclaimed internet geniuses seem to have is quite funny and pretentious. This was a scattered mess with some really interests visuals which at times had some mediocre cgi.
