Songs My Brothers Taught Me (2015)
Beautiful magic hour shots, but...
The characters are beautifully portrayed, as Chloé Zhao is capable of. You immediately recognize her documentary-style approach, with some really eye-catching shots. But it lacks a clear plot, and therefore tension, which makes the whole a bit too slow and dragging. Still an interesting watch if you are interested in Zhao's work...
The Devil All the Time (2020)
It's people dying all the time
Terrible events don't make drama. The story is slow, there are a lot of side walks and there isn't a main idea or message. They probably just went for this plot because they liked the arena and the feel/attitude of a certain type of film. Yes, the trailer is very promising, I admit, but no you won't regret skipping it.
Apollo 11 (2019)
Just (fascinating) footage
It kinda felt like a collection of footage you often see in museums. Interesting, but not like watching a documentary. There wasn't really a storyline, something to learn, broaden your perspective or anything like that. Instead it's just footage, footage, footage. (Seriously great footage though!)
