Stars at Noon (2022)
1/10
Waste of time
14 June 2023
Warning: Spoilers
The plot is unclear, most of the time I didn't know what was gonna happen or even why it was happening. Many questions are left unanswered, and the characters are odd. When I read the story summary on the backside of the novel, I thought, this could be a good movie. Sadly, I saw nothing in the movie that got even a little bit close to the novel summary. If you take away beds and sex, this movie would not exist. There was no emotional connection with the characters and I had no sympathy for them. Overall, this is just a bunch of random events which somehow should explain everything. They want to arrest of the British business man so badly that they have the power to check him out from the hotel, burn a car of someone, threaten and murder people (things they have all done), but when he is standing right in front of them, they don't do anything, because they supposedly legally cannot do so without the signature from his (supposed) lover saying he did all those bad things (which we don't know what it is because they keep it unspecified). But killing people and destroying people their property is fine. My advise: Don't waste your time on this movie and read the novel instead. Cheaper to do, and if you don't like it, you can just stop reading it and bring it to a thrift shop or something.
