Frans B @FransB Jun 26 Could not get a handle on this movie. Was perhaps meant to be thought provoking, mystic, unconventional, highly unconventional, strange or absurd? Nevertheless, not my cup of tea. Confusing writing that fails to captivate, despite brilliant cast giving it the beans. Great cinematography though. Might appeal to slightly off beat audience, but very niche target, imo. Technically good, but that is about it. See more Blake- N @PBSAniDom May 5 Mayday (2021) feels like it exists in a strange middle ground between experimental dream logic and unintended absurd comedy, and in that sense it often invites comparisons to cult titles like The Room (2003). While it is clearly aiming for something more atmospheric and symbolic, the end result can feel similarly disjointed and oddly unintentionally funny at times, though with a more polished visual approach. Compared to The Room, Mayday at least has a clearer sense of intent in its filmmaking and presentation, even if the narrative cohesion is still difficult to follow. It’s less of a "so bad it’s good" experience and more of a "so abstract it loops back around" kind of watch. Not without its intriguing moments, but also not fully satisfying as a cohesive film. I’d give it a 4/10. See more Philip G. @Kurosawa Mar 2 Any movie with Mia Goth is going to be fun and interesting, even it doesn’t make much sense. One reviewer said it should have been better and I believe that’s true. However, I enjoyed this more that are admittedly better. See more MA M @scary_ann Feb 27 A stunning film and a must-watch. The plot unfolds similarly to the classical ballet, Giselle. A small group of young women who have died welcome a new recruit into their afterlife, in which their central focus is killing men. Each of them appears to have a story in their real lives of being controlled and harmed by men, and heaven, for them, is vengeance. Like Giselle, the newest among them finds that the killing is not for her. Beautifully written and acted. A dreamy, surrealist masterpiece.

But it is a good portrayal of ideation of an action community guidelines isn't letting me use the word for, and a message of choosing to see the stars through the darkness. See more Aaron O. @goatley1 Feb 23 Regardless of the symbolism, the similarities to sirens, this is totally lame. The plot goes nowhere, and we're supposed to believe that this girl offed herself because she was bullied by her manager? It's like girl interrupted meets lord of the flies. Only not near as cognizant as either film. Definitely don't recommend. See more Read all reviews
