Brilliant

Rating: 6/10 (9 December 2019)

This film directing truly is brilliant. I like how the film really makes you feel for the main character and when things start going wrong you genuinely feel sorry - something that is a must when I'm watching films, I need to care for the character. Christian Bale really does an awesome job portraying Reznik, one of those where you really can't expect anyone else playing this character.
I like how this film kept you guessing throughout (though I did have to fight against myself from reading any spoilers because I needed to know what was happening) I was wondering the whole time what the all of the clues actually meant and when the twist finally happened all of the clues made sense. It truly grasped what can happen when us humans do not accept our guilt. The whole time you think he's turning into an absolute psychopath when really, he's just a normal person dealing with a heart wrenching past.
Excellent film. I wish once he had finally confessed I could have seen more but then I like the thought that he's just still asleep in his cell because the whole time I was watching him I just wanted to take a nap for him.
