Men
UK Release Date: 01 June 2022 Certification: 15 Director: Alex Garland Cast: Jessie Buckley, Paapa Essiedu, Rory Kinnear, Gayle Rankin Rating: 36% Review: Men was made to look like a modern horror classic when A24 revealed the first trailer for the film last year in February. Unfortunately, the film failed to reach the heights set out by its trailer. Men takes a promising concept with an eerie build-up and totally wastes it. A short film is defined 'as an original motion picture that has a runtime of 40 minutes or less'. Men would've worked better as a short film for me because t he first hour of this film, exceptional - a few scenes could've been cut to fit the criteria. Incredibly anxiety inducing, u tterly terrifying to the point where it becomes a draining watch due to the constant unease. The score heightens the tension incorporating sounds made from a character earlier on in the film into the music. The film is beaut...
