Review of Leave No Trace (2018) by Arod10901 — 14 Jul 2018

The movie is quiet, subtle and slow, the performances are subdued and not over the top, it was very anti-melodramatic and anti-climactic, there was no real buildup or suspense, these aren’t complaints just something to keep in mind if you’re interested in seeing it, in my opinion the film wasn’t trying to make you cry, although heartbreaking at times, no real tearjerker moments ,no big oscar type of monologues, you just kind of get absorbed into the lives of these people and to me it was very beautifully made and quite powerful, while I didn’t cry while watching it I got choked up explaining some of the more tender moments to someone the next day, it’ll stay with me for awhile and that’s the true sign of a really good movie.
