The Beast (2023)
4/10
Not without thought, but far too long
20 October 2023
I slept through parts of the film. The dialogue was rather shallow and confused for the subject it aims to convey, and the whole love story through time far too outstretched (and frankly dull). Performances are soulless, perhaps purposely, and the latter part is such a verbatim homage to David Lynch, it left me questioning this decision more than anything. For Lynch fans, the filmmakers should have hardly put forth such a simplistic moral.

Since I'm required to type more characters, I'd just refer the viewers to the Lynch/Mary Sweeney trilogy, namely Fire Walk With Me/Lost Highway/Mulholland Drive.
