Sator

Some films are worth waiting and sitting through, this isn't one of them. Creepy atmosphere, beautiful cinematography plagued with poor story and pacing. Disappointing to say the least.

Here's a film about men with beards and an old lady that hears voices. And some spooky stuff in the woods too. It's a good eerie setting and the silence works for tension building but character motives are never established. A lot of what is happening is implied. Maybe I missed a bit or a lot of the subtext. So while I could dismiss Sator as cryptic nonsense, it's very well made to string you along and is visually pleasing throughout, enough so that's it's an alright film overall.

This movie was on my radar for a while and I finally decided to watch it after looking at the trailer... It starts off okay, but nothing really happens, acting is okay, but there is no backstory on any of the characters, I just did not get it and couldn't wait for it to be over,it was so boring I went to sleep after watching this at 9pm, just not my type of film.

The whole "let the audience figure it out" thing is getting played out. Here's a film that's very well shot and features a constant sense of dread, is as spooky as it gets, BUT ... the script is nearly non existent and the pacing will test anyone's patience. Seriously. Enough with the "this will reward patient viewers" nonsense. Hire a script writer FFS.

Everyone wants to be The VVitch, or Hereditary but fall short. I respect the low budget-ness, but just no pay off.
