Review of Incendies (2010) by Laura W — 08 Jul 2013

It takes its time, it pulls you in slowly, it insists on you to stop watching and go to sleep, but if you ignore its insistence and you get drawn in by the outstanding framing of shots or next level acting or even the beauty of sparse scenery, then you should be prepared for an emotional, visual and subtle roller coaster! yes, by subtle I mean it is not the kind that will take you through hoops and loops, but keep a steady increase of pace with the occasional bumps, all the while preparing you for the final lunge that will make your head squeal, your heart scream and brain squirm.

I have been a fool for keeping this movie pending so long, but I'm glad and honored to have finally seen it.
