Review of Annihilation (2018) by Darkknight — 13 Mar 2018
The trailer is better than the movie, that's for sure. I've said it before so many times that it's become redundant- the critics are an enigma to say the least. I really don't know why this film has gotten such high marks from them because it pretty much leaves you scratching your head at the end.
Maybe that's what they look for in these films. But for us average low brow movie goers it's really not that great. Sure wish I had the high IQ that is required to appreciate this film. The critics consensus says "Annihilation backs up its sci-fi visual wonders and visceral genre thrills with an impressively ambitious -- and surprisingly strange -- exploration of challenging themes that should leave audiences pondering long after the end credits roll.
" Where do they come up with this stuff?? Do they even know what they said? Did they really even watch the movie? I have to wonder. 2 stars, only because it kept me interested to see the outcome, which was a disappointment and could have been better.
