Review of The Neon Demon (2016) by Evan J — 25 Jun 2016
The Neon Demon is a lot of things. Transcendent, hypnotic, and stylish are a few words that come to mind. This film had me hooked from the beginning credit sequence and it never let me go. I'm still in kind of a daze to be honest. Every frame of The Neon Demon is executed to absolute perfection. I cannot give the visuals enough praise. Honestly this is one of the best looking films I have ever seen. It's a five-course meal for the eyes. Also, the soundtrack/score is incredible. I RARELY buy a film's soundtrack and when I say rarely I mean never but I have already purchased the soundtrack from Amazon. Elle Fanning and Jenna Malone were both fantastic. There are so many things that stand out about TND: the music, performances, cinematography, lightning, editing, costumes, and makeup. Everything about this movie is so transfixing. I couldn't get enough. I LOVED this movie and I cannot wait to see it again and again and again.
The Neon Demon is Nicolas Winding Refn's masterpiece and my favorite film of his. It's so bold and so captivating. My eyes were glued to the screen the entire run-time. I can't stop thinking about it. Seriously one of my new all-time favorite movies; I'm talking at least top 25 material.
P.S. Even after those certain events, I still find Jenna Malone incredibly attractive.
