Review of Sylvio (2017) by Cinemacrush — 13 Feb 2018
A film that shows just how safe Hollywood plays it. These are the kinds of ideas that need to come to the forefront of cinema. But instead they sadly lurk in the corners of your online streaming search, or in the arthouse theaters it takes a little longer to get to if you don't live in a major city.
Sylvio may not be a perfect film, but it's perfect absurdism, and tightly interwoven into a crystal clear coherent social commentary. And most importantly, Sylvio doesn't crack. It may be absurd to the viewer, but in Sylvio's world, this is just life.
And it may be very close to yours.// My Metascore for Sylvio as a whole may be 8; but surely a 10 for ambitious brave and intelligent film making.
