Review of Possessor (2020) by Mauro_Lanari — 29 Jul 2022
(Mauro Lanari).
An incomprehensibly divisive film: Brandon was able to synthesize both of his father's poetics, the first on the new flesh and the second on the new psyche, but unlike the parent he let himself be imprisoned within the schemes of a genre, the useless brutality of the gore. He demonstrated that knows how to move from a style at risk of being too conceptual to admirable visual intuitions (as the Glazer of "Under the Skin", 2013), but he manifested shortcomings in the narrative construction (does the protagonist Tasya Vos kill her family because conditioned by her work as a murderess or on the contrary is she a mother and wife with homicidal impulses that tries to channel by acting as a killer?). Not a masterpiece or a garbage: a sufficient movie.
