Review of Security

Security (I) (2021)
7/10
A European (Italian) existential movie for the 2020s
2 July 2021
This is the type of existential movie we have a lot of, and love, here in Continental Europe but which are so alien to North American and UK viewers, so I can see why most English speakers gave it terrible marks.

Our cousins across the Alps are coming up with great dramas during this pandemic : La Vita davanti a sé, the Zero series, and now this one, Security.

Despite the title Security is not a police thriller or anything similar : it is just a good existential drama around the principal of a security company which installs security systems in rich people's houses in the beautiful real town of Forte dei Marmi - from this film and Google pictures I just want to go and visit it !

This film is all about personal dramas, family dramas, people's varying characters and how some people's character traits can lead to tragedies multiple steps down the line.

I loved it.
