Babylon (I) (2022)
7/10
An epic beginning, with a depressing finale
23 December 2022
I hate long movies, and don't get why movies seem to be casually 3 hours now. With that in mind, it does not feel like a long movie for the first 2 1/2 hours. So much happening all at once. They did an amazing job of making the audience feel like the characters felt in the moment. BUT when it begins to fall apart, boy does it fall apart. The message is clear, and very relevant for society now, but as I watched everything unravel, I became very sad. Not for the characters, but the fact that a message like this has to be said, and that what happens is so common. Everyone seems to know what's at the end of the dark road, and continues to go down it anyways these days. Not being cautious, actually speeding up for a faster ending. If you're into film, definitely check it out.
