Films are officially back in business! After a year that seemed relatively scarce, the film reels are rolling like crazy. While 2021 would not be quoted as the proper comeback, at least financially, the quality of content this year alone is something to reckon.
As with every year, there are fair shares of sparky duds and fiery successes. There are neon-paletted delights. We have exquisite character work as with Nicolas Cage’s “Pig” along with James McAvoy’s “My Son”. Local features like “Prebet Sapu”, which was brilliant, brought about themes of existentialism all while telling a grounded story of a familiar location in monochrome fashion.
No doubt, there are also weird cash-grab features that stink and some that deserve to be deleted from the studios’ catalogue. There are franchises that refuse to die, but we still have this love-hate relationship with them because they inspire tons of memes and are all about family.
