Two films in and I find Kogonada's directorial style, appropriately for his background as video essayist, more towards "filtered" -- his often immaculate framing rather dramatically stifling in their one-perfect-shot-ness than properly meditative. That style hits the mark sometimes, like a breathtaking climatic montage, but overall it's a film of lovely isolated moments more than a satisfying narrative whole for me. Imaginative world-building and great cast though, plus that title credit sequence is an early scene-of-the-year contender. 6.5/10
Midnight Run (1988) - 9
The Smiling Lieutenant (1931) - 8.5
The Adventures of Robinhood (1938) - 8
Sisters (1973) - 6.5
Shin Godzilla (2016) - 7.5
Most Boring Movie of the Year.
Sorry, I have nothing else to add.
