Impedoso and visceral

Rating: 8/10 (6 March 2018)

"Three Adverts for a Crime," a visceral film that tinkers with the viewer's entrails, blending comedy, drama, and suspense, the film is both ponderous and intriguing, full of social criticism and great acting and directing. best film among the nominees of ocar the category of "best film". When we talk about the script, something that awakens our attention, we expect the script to be adapted, but we are surprised to know that it is an original script, which makes the film even more interesting, since it opens many margins for the good director and screenwriter Martin McDonagh, telling the story of a mother indignant at the death of her daughter unresolved by the police, the film creates a context, and within it inserts its characters, some very caricature, but all very deep, or at least with some development, in addition, the long builds characters to then break, weaken and raise them again. The film talks about racism, violence, abuse of authority, homicide and domestic violence, of course, a pure feeling of impotence to be fought, the film is a machine gun for criticism, even though they are all exaggerated in absurd contexts. it is no longer a critical movie. Technically, the film is very good, with a greater emphasis on its great editing, composition of scenes, and great angles, open, with planes sequences, traveling, the camera of the film behaves perfectly, in addition to a photograph that warm, remembering a good old western. Frances McDormand is completely amazing, frightening and crazy, the character scares, and makes the viewer buy his idea, besides showing his sweet and ferocious moments, the other highlight goes to Sam Rockwell, who for me is the best character of the film, a character broken by nature, a class on how to build an antagonist, without vanity or modesty, Woody Harrelson too, is charming and captivating, even having little screen time. Finally, "Three ads for a crime" is not perfect, far from it, has problems, has scenes explained that do not need to be explained, has moments that is disconnected with the context that created, but still, it is a very good movie .
