Review of Z (1969) by Trevor S — 15 Feb 2008
One of the best political thrillers around, since it has an universal message and was at the time really direct. The soundtrack is excellent, as is the cinematography (loved the restless, piercing camera) and the acting.
I have read some reviews claiming "there's no real tension", or that the intirgue is just plain boring. But, THESE are the real political intrigues, you know? Not every week a nuclear bomb gets stolen, or a president is kidnapped.
"Z" is more startling and tense because you know all this is real and urgent.
