Review of Pain and Glory (2019) by Moviemitch96 — 09 Nov 2019

It was a pretty simple and straightforward film, but it also contained a career-best performance from Antonio Banderas as a washed up Spanish filmmaker reflecting on his childhood and past, as well as attempting to make amends with some people in his present.

It contains some touching scenes, but the story felt underwhelming to me and felt too familiar and similar to other stories like this that have been told. Overall, see it for Banderas' spot-on performance that certainly deserves awards recognition.
