Review of Bacurau

Bacurau (2019)
6/10
Overlong
30 October 2020
Warning: Spoilers
This film is way too long at two hours and eleven minutes. Some severe editing was needed. It begins with a man driving a truck filled with water to a remote village called Bacurau. Some kind of unexplained evil government has taken over and the remote town needs water delivered by tanker to survive. Half way through a group of bad American fascists, led by a German, played well by Udo Kier, begin killing people and the people of Bacurau must defend themselves, much like The Magnificent Seven, a much better movie. Lots of violence and some nudity thrown in, including old and obese individuals. The cast is fine overall, but again, it is a bit of a marathon.
