Misrule (2017)
5/10
A bit jarring and definitely not very romantic
1 October 2023
The movie starts a bit slow. Was much more focused on the sky aspect than I expected. Not that it's a problem. However, when the shimmers of romance came through it felt like it fell a bit short on the passion and expectation. It takes quite a turn and then feels a bit anti-climax. If not a bit of a tragedy.

They definitely wrote in a lot of stupid things that will likely annoy you. But Christian felt quite human and attractive at first. His character gets written a bit badly though. In the end the emotions fall flat. I had hopes cause this was a sexy scenario and 2 hunks, but alas, a bit flat. The low budget does shine through but the acting isn't bad, it's mostly the lighting and empty areas that give you that strange depressing vibe that comes from these low budget films. I think if these characters were given a chance in a bit of a different story it could've been really good. The spy thriller is still an interesting take and glad that it exists though. The more variety in this genre, the better.
