Review of West Side Story (2021) by Jason Bailey for The Playlist — 02 Dec 2021
The whole thing moves like a freight train, its 156 minutes passing in barely a breath, and that breakneck pace, combined with the expressionist aesthetic and candy-colored imagery, reminds us that blockbusters don’t have to be these lumbering processions of greyscaled dreck.
It’s a rarity, a big-budget holiday movie with style and pizzazz.
