Review of The Congress

The Congress (2013)
5/10
Two for the price of one
19 January 2014
The message is delivered very early on. And acting wise it is superb in its first part of the movie. It still hangs on too long on that part, feeling like a gum that loses its flavor. Of course the flavor has a bit of comeback when we get to the animated part of the movie (there are still people out there who can't bear the thought of watching anything animated).

It still never reaches really new heights story wise. It does look good (especially if you like the drawing style presented), but there is nothing to add to the first section of the movie, only delving a bit deeper into the thought process. But not enough to make this really essential in my book. It might be either too weird or not complex enough for most of the viewers.
