Review of Paradise Highway (2022) by Mauro_Lanari — 06 Jun 2023
(Mauro Lanari).
Norwegian Anna Gutto's feature debut is not a trivial thriller road movie. "Trafficking will not go away until people stop buying, Gerick. We know that. All right? We get these guys and someone else is just gonna satisfy the demand". "That's what gets me up in the morning". Such a tragic vision of existence with such a disillusioned and sorrowful Morgan Freeman does not follow boring and outworn stereotypes, but recalls the legendary glories of a noir like "Se7en" (1995), prolonging the final scene for the entire duration of the film and thus drying up the pyrotechnic cipher of Fincher's formalism.
