Gettingual billionaire Dance on the verge of volcano

How many rebellious films about Gang are overthrow the status quo, should be done before uncomfortable governments start putting you on some kind of tracking list? For Romain GavsThe Son of the Legendary Director “Z” and Political Critic Costa-Gavras, the number now stands in three. First, Debit from 2010. years, “our day will come,” annoying calls to the action in which the redhead inherited the country, followed by the White Koleh “Athena”, about the uprising in the Paris Stan block. Now comes spraying “Sacrifice“Which occupies a satyrical view of ecoterrorism and end of the day.

“Victim” feels like a reaction of the music video director at Comedy Ruben Ostlund, an elevated form of irony who deserved the Swedish director of the ski resort) two palms d’or trophies for his films “Square”. “There is a similar look and feeling of a gava elegant modern critique, although it is a hard formula to match, that mastery is controlled by tension and humor that the Gavras struggles to achieve.

After opening with a violent cult ritual rite to put us on the edge, “the victim” shifts his attention to an insecure American film star on the way to the elite environmental summit somewhere in Greece. Fring in all things in the back seat of the limo, Mike Tyler (Chris Evans) He understands the last minute that his gas wrinkle entrance is not such a great look, so he asks the driver to withdraw and walk the last few steps … for making on the ground.

Dressed in white, Mike is not a hero, but he played his share on the big screen. It was before his recent mental failure – who culminated incident agents (Sam Richardson) not to mention (the way of the people of Tom Cruise without doubt guilty to his coach-jumping GAF). Mike is barely the first celebrity that was questioned whether he could serve a more purpose. The problem is that nothing is nothing and it seems open to seeking some kind of causes. Maybe it leads him to this tonic charity, which is hosted by the rich industrialist Ben Banken (Vincent Cassel) and his wife Gloria (Salma Haiek Pinault).

The event takes place in a quarry from a marble volacas, spectacular location, with its facade similar to the temple and a large network of digging chambers, in a short distance from active volcano. How well trained donors are composed of banquet in one of the larger world halls, in which a man who wore the guest. In the Gavras version, the guerrillas that we need to worry, as a gang of ecological warriors guided by Joan (Ania Taylor-Joi) Infiltrata gatherings.

The biggest laughter in this unchanted and often inaudible satire comes when Joan and Company decide to crack on the ceremony. They could be interrupted talking about samoriginal signaling (bracket solution to instead fashioned a fashioned militia), but instead, a fashion-dressed militia occurs at the tail end of the concert of the high concept with Charli XCKS. “When two dozen blue kids are rushing with rifles, a crowd is needed to understand that it is not part of the show.

This nearby volcano was prepared to explode, and only Joan and the company seem to understand that it will be a cataclysmic event for the planet. The film seems to believe in this prophecy, and although eruption occurs inevitably, it is not clear why it should be worse than the previous ones. So, Joan and Company took him to himself. They trained all their lives for this moment, convinced that only one thing would bring the upcoming disaster: the human sacrifice. (Or three human sacrifices, to be precise.)

According to Joan (a radicalized child of a great scientist, her followers must choose a pawn, partner – or “true” yung “Leandoer) and hero, each of which must be thrown into the volcano. The Gavras represents this Mystic Mumbo Jumbo in such a way that we need to get to the question of whether Joan could be right. More than the point, Mike Tyler asks wondering if it could be his calling. How Casting goes, Evans are uniform holes in their person in their persons, but it doesn’t seem unstable enough. If there was ever the role of Shia Labeouf, that’s it.

Moments before the eco-terrorists broke down, the self-centered star broke the benefit to cover the hypocrisy of all gathered there. But when it is called to make significance, he is not very sure where it stands. As in Yorgos Lanthimos’ semi-like, equally far-retrieved “Bugonia,” film like “victim” hinges on how fictional characters react to scientific-fictitious situations. In other words, the film is God and eventually he must choose whether to mercy on those we would otherwise be mentally ill.

There is virtuosity for Gawlas film, which returns some surprising laughter and excitement on the road. But there is no world in which this volcano would not delete the whole scientist who would confirm the Malkovic’s explanation that the chemical in the blood of a nation can strengthen the melted lion – which makes everything happening. Of all the Gavras’s Cine-Revolution, this is also the most famous and farthest removed from our reality.
