Review of Annihilation (2018) by Jess C — 01 Mar 2018

I think a good chunk of viewers did not fully comprehend this film. Annihilation is not just a movie, it's an experience. It's full of meaning those at the surface need to grasp. I came in expecting a sci-fi thriller, but I left with something more.

Annihilation presents us with stunning visuals and entrancing music. As big of a fever dream as it feels, I think that was the point. To make it so bizarre that only those who dipped below the surface would be able to understand.

This movie may look like nothing but nonsense to some, but to me, it was a work of art. The characters, the plot, the visuals, the score, the concepts. Each and every part of it was magnificent, and I'd definitely see it again.
