Sol de Medianoche (2018)

Review by rsantana-85196

Sol de Medianoche

10/10

A film to be watched over and over

I have watched this film three times so far and I will probably watch it again. And I think I have by now figured out who killed Frank. The movie does not reveal that secret outright but the clues are there. Some clues are quite subtle and some people will miss them altogether. But, regardless of the level of your sleuthing skills, the movie is worth watching on many levels. You will enjoy it for the scenery, the acting, the music and the cinematography. The dialogue is unique too. It is raw, yes. But it is also very real. Not everyone in the film speaks like Pedrín (Chente Ydrach)--who is playing a more serious and pedantic version of his social-media persona, as he is actually acting--but from what I've gathered and know, his lines reflect certain level of contemporary Puerto Rican street-talk. Thus, not every one will approve the over-the-top rude and impolite language coming out of his mouth but this is what this Howard Stern-like character has to offer and many people enjoy it for what it is. If you can handle it, you might find his lines to actually be quite funny and entertaining, ("pelo a pelo" being one of those neo noir genre quotes not to be forgotten). This movie is not for everyone, just like Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill and No Country for Old Men also are not for everyone. But for those who can take profanity-or perhaps reality-and for those who know a little about film, who can appreciate true art, great acting and great directing, it is one for the not-to-be-missed bucket list. Watch it with someone else, someone who also truly appreciates film if you can! You will be talking (and laughing) about it for a good while.
