Review of Rebecca (2020) by Marakai — 24 Oct 2020
It’s becoming quite impressive how often Ben Wheatley is willing to challenge himself in different genres and styles and his remake of Alfred Hitchcock’s Rebecca is another example of his bravery.
That said, for as good as this film looks (and it does look very good indeed due to sumptuous production design) it’s essentially very hollow underneath. I’m a huge admirer of Wheatley’s and for two thirds of this film he delivers some impressive work but it falls apart when it matters most and ultimately leaves you feeling like it was a vacuous waste of time.
