Review of Metropia (2009) by Pourya E — 23 Apr 2010
In a visually unique style and stunning expression Tarik Saleh manages to create an Orwellian dystopia charged with a Kafka-esque paranoia! Metropia is something of a maverick in the full-length film context, taking the short film formula and expanding it to fit the mainstream format.
However despite its technical impeccability it comes rather short in terms of dramaturgy and suspense that sustains all the way through. Nevertheless this is an achievement not only for Tarik Saleh but also a milestone for the whole Swedish cinema!
