The Cathedral (2021)
Liked it
Some terrific acting in this movie. I liked the format more than I expected I would. A lot of realistic relationships. Some of the stills could've been eliminated or shortened, but that was only occasionally. I also had a little trouble following who was related to whom. So pay attention in the beginning as best you can.
I particularly liked the acting by the father Richard. You could just see the tension building up within him before he would explode. Also the elderly grandmother/great grandmother was portrayed in such a human way. It was actually scary as it makes you realize how vulnerable older people can be.
The young actors are also excellent.
Hanna (2011)
Why all the hype?
This was definitely one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I can't understand how people can write praising reviews at the same time they say that the characters weren't developed, the plot had many unclear points (like most of it). In fact I came onto the IMDb website to see if I could find out why these people were doing what they were doing, which was mostly beating each other up and killing gruesomely.
(I'm sorry I had to mark this as a spoiler as people will waste money on it as I did, if they don't read my review. But this is my first IMDb review and I'm not sure if this review is a spoiler or not, but I didn't want to take any chances and get blacklisted.)
