Review of First They Killed My Father (2017) by Chúc & — 16 Sep 2017
At this point, I have no faith in Angelina Jolie's directing skill. She made a tragic and brutal story become boring and slow. This movie is overlong, slow just for the sake of slow (and quite beautiful cinematography, I guess?).
She and co-writer Loung Ung didn't make the story and its characters compelling enough, far from enough. There's almost no punch or impact. Not recommended.
