Review of Hostiles (2017) by Filipe C — 21 Feb 2018
Cooper goes all in yet again, this time attempting to craft a film with Malick's visual poetry and Cimino's explosive tension and violence. He never quite hits the right notes and there's the lingering feeling that something's off about the film: the big emotions never quite hit, the violence never shocks or sobers, and the narrative ultimately falls flat.
Still, it's a journey worth taking.
