Something to Do with Death

This is one helluva edgy revenge crime drama that also holds its mystery right until the very end. It's an Australian film from what I can tell. The plot is simple to begin with about the son of a criminal who just turns up one day and takes on the mob. But the story gets real complex as it goes on. There's a mysterious dead body the police want to make disappear. There's a woman who seems to be running away from something.

There's even a hilarious underdog type character who just likes giving people his business card. What really holds it all together is some of the most believable acting i've seen in a long time. Bramwell Noah is absolutely commanding as the criminal picking on bad guys bigger than he is.

Lu Yiy is an emotional powerhouse who I couldn't take my eyes off. Their chemistry and the chemistry of the whole cast is what will keep you watching. So many little mysteries and twists and turns in the story really set it apart, but it's the acting that keeps bringing it back to earth and what will have you caring about the characters and what happens next.

Directed by Bramwell Noah and Dan Noah, Something to Do with Death is a gripping drama that explores the ripple effects of a single, life-altering moment. The film masterfully intertwines multiple perspectives, unraveling the devastating impact of one bullet on the lives of its characters.

The Noah brothers create a tense, emotionally charged atmosphere, blending raw performances with striking cinematography. The pacing is deliberate, building to a crescendo that leaves you breathless. Themes of guilt, revenge, and redemption are explored with nuance, making this film as thought-provoking as it is heart-wrenching.

Something to Do with Death is a powerful meditation on the fragility of life and the choices that define us. A haunting, unforgettable experience.
