Review of Pine Gap

Pine Gap (2018)
7/10
It's intriguing but...

I'm having a hard time with the cinematography. I'm only a assistant prop master but, the camera angles are messing with me.

Why would you frame up a shot with the back side of an actors head in the lower left or right of the frame?

Why would you have an actor in 1/9 of the frame and always the lower 9th or 7th part of the frame.

There are many shots that have the actors looking off into space with no response on the other side.

There seems to be some sort of "semi math". Maybe I'm used to the superhero shows.

I am open to comments.

My understanding is there is a basic formula.

I'm not a DP, but it's a strange setup.
