Review of Bellflower (2011) by Xavierblaq — 30 Dec 2013

This film of very harsh realism and large amounts of symbolism definitely comes from the postmodern tradition, and was interesting and thought-provoking enough for the majority of it to be entertaining.

But then came the final scene to ruin the whole movie. Apart from the annoying repetition of the Mad-Max-influenced nickname "Lord Humungous," the scene destroys the deep insights gotten from the rest of the movie by seeming to make the whole film's theme a glorified version of "bros before hos.

" Still, the characters and filming was good enough to make the film not completely ruined, but very disappointing nonetheless.
