Emancipation (2022)
5/10
Running in circles
13 December 2022
First, the choice to film it in B&W comes hard, but probably they tried to achieve symbolism to give us a perspective of the hard life - hard times and where they focused on the hard work and survival instead of the colors of nature - life itself.

Second, there are just too many so-called coincidences and moments that make you ask yourself what were they thinking, how come a man that probably was born in slavery knows so much about running from it, how does he even know how to use a gun and to shoot anything with it.

Overall, it seems like the director forced himself and the entire movie, ruining the storyline and the continuity.

Lost

Warning: Spoilers
This movie lost its point from the moment the grandfather "died", probably he supposed to be major part of the movie and afterwards they just keep on filming without ideas.

Illogical scenes
18 May 2020
Good overall adaptation and remake of the original, but in the ending scenes where the guards (Yugoslavian police) are taking notes from Poirot we can see that one of the police officers is black which is totally absurd given the timeline of the events and many other factors...
