Incendies

Movie

Love Denis Villeneuve but Incedies is probably my least favorite of his films I've seen so far. Its well made but a lot of it is kind of boring. The last third redeems it and bumps up the score a lot. I'm OK with super slow burn movies, there are tons of slow films that I love but their were plenty of parts in Incendies where I just wanted it to be over. That isn't the production teams fault, the production, acting, directing were still good, it was the mainly the the fault of the script and editing. Overall it works and works pretty well but was uneven with how it was mainly the end that pulls it all together.
