Review of High-Rise (2015) by Virginiaproud — 16 Aug 2016
A confusing journey into darkness. The protagonist doesn't engage, we don't learn anything about him, and the madness that surrounds him springs up without much provocation. The back half of the film is then dedicated to chaos, the slightly surrealist tone and images were reminiscent of Peter Greenaway, with the grubbiness of Mad Max.
Unfortunately interesting imagery is not enough, with half an hour to go, I was considering turning it off. I didn't, but it was really just more of the same til the end.
