Review of Border (2018) by Brent_Marchant — 27 Oct 2018
One of the best efforts at fusing multiple cinematic genres that I've ever seen. It's part crime drama, part fantasy, part horror flick, part offbeat love story and part noir thriller all rolled into one sumptuously filmed, deliciously unusual Swedish offering.
This one will take you places you don't expect at seemingly every turn, holding your interest intently, because you're never sure where it's going to go next. Director Ali Abbasi serves up a sometimes-funny, sometimes-twisted, sometimes-sweet tale that keeps viewers guessing right up to the closing credits.
The changes in mood definitely keep you on your toes, but in the end it's well worth it.
