As You Are (2016)
7/10
A first time effort which shows future promise, but slightly drowns out its beauty with the way it foreshadows.

Warning: Spoilers
Even with taking note that this is not playing at your local theater, meaning you have to make an effort to see this, I feel even if it was accessible I would have mixed feelings. For while I love loved the characters, loved the plot dealing with Mark and Jack's experimenting, as well as the complicated relationship Mark and Tom have, the way the police investigation is used honestly ruins the movie. For while you understand the purpose is to present intrigue through foreshadowing, you may feel, like I did, that there were probably better ways to execute this story. So while you have to commend Joris-Peyrafitte for this being his first film, you can see that he needs to learn why the adage "Less is more" isn't as much a cliché as it is sound advice.
