Review of Surge

Surge (I) (2020)
Gave me motion sicknes
23 September 2021
Effective in depicting a mental breakdown. The shallow depth of field close-ups with only the protagonist in focus show his isolation, it reminded me of Da xiang xidi erzuo (2018).

Unfortunately the extreme shaky cam made me feel queasy so I left the cinema after about half an hour. I can see why the artistic decision was made but I just couldn't handle it.
