Review of Zola (2021) by Zmgalen2000 — 01 Jul 2021

"Zola" is one of those movies whose technical execution is absolutely brilliant. From a directorial standpoint, certain choices of this film are captivating and unique, with all of these scenes being heightened by truly strong acting.

However, this movie' potential is cut short by its storyline. It truly reels you in and immerses you into a retro-style contemporary world, and just as you start to think, "Hey! We're really going somewhere now," it sort of just tapers off and ends, leaving plot holes and general dissatisfaction at its conclusion.
