Review of Emulsion

Emulsion (2014)
8/10
A suspenseful drama grips you till the end
15 July 2014
I very recently watched this film & was really intrigued by the storyline. When I first heard about this film, I brushed it off, thinking it was going to be like another version of the movie "Wicker Park": a man frantically & nearly obsessively searching for the missing woman whom he's desperately in love with. How wrong I was.

This film contains a well-balanced mixture of suspense, drama, raw innocence, & dark grit. The storyline gripped me all the way until the very end, with plenty of plot twists & that just- when-you-think-you've-figured-it-out edginess. Actor Sam Heughan really steals the spotlight with his incredible portrayal of a vulnerable man on the brink of self-destruction & just barely holding onto his last shreds of composure, all while trying to solve the bizarre & mysterious disappearance of the woman he loves.

I must admit the storyline starts off a little too slow in the beginning, but gradually the story picks up its pace & really captivates your attention till the very end. It's like a cat & mouse game, trying to gather clues, which become pieces to an elaborate puzzle. This film offers a good dose of secrets, espionage, chases, raw emotions, & action.

To sum up this film in one sentence: IT'S THE CLOTHES THAT MAKE THE MAN.
