Supercell (2023)
7/10
Retro
3 June 2023
Almost everything about this movie reminded me of adventure movies from the late 70s to early 90s:

  • A classical score as if it was E. T.


  • Cinematography as if it was Close Encounters of the Third Kind


  • Production design as if it was Back To the Future


  • Even the characters and the dialogs


It was like a magical nostalgic trip. And while the superficial topic was not really important to me personally, they used it as a vehicle to provide all the above mentioned qualities and to distract from the underlying light family drama.

Will I watch it again? Most probably not because there are many other productions to watch instead, and I would rather watch the original movies from the 80s again. (Hence no 8 points.)

Do I regret it to have seen it? No because I enjoyed the relaxing mood it got me into. (Hence at at least 6 points.)

Would I recommend it to others? Yes if I knew that the person could relate to the nostalgia, I tried to describe in this review. (Hence 7 points.)

But I would not recommend it to people who expect a tornado disaster movie.
