What am I?

Rating: 5/10 (3 April 2018)

You know something is very wrong when your first reaction is "what am I?"
Annihilation is just like the game where you try to guess what the other person is but in this case there is simply no working it out. "Am I a sci fi, am I a horror, am I a personal introspective?" "Well, maybe."
This film could have fulfilled any of those themes had it not run out of cinematic space before it could happen. The result is a deeply felt sense of pervading incompleteness, not helped by a mildly clever but predictably anti climatic, ending.
5/10 from me.
