Review of Let Him Go (2020) by Dawdlingpoet — 11 Jun 2022
This film seems a little slow and without too clear a direction at the start (at first I wondered what the story was and was curious what the film title alluded to but all becomes clear by the end) but it certainly packs a punch by the end.
It's a dark (literally and thematically speaking) watch and ocassionally its gritty. Once the plot picks up pace, there's quite an effective sense of threat felt. The cast give decent performances and while perhaps the themes covered aren't entirely original, its a pretty memorable film I thought, so I'd say its worth a watch.
The dark lighting may cause an issue for some if your watching it in a brightly lit area as I found myself struggling slightly to see what was going on in some scenes but thats perhaps a relatively small niggle, as it were.
I would recommend this film, yes.
