The Other Me (2016)
8/10
A decent effort
13 September 2020
What disappointed me most is that nobody picked up on the GLARING similarities with the TV show "Hannibal" which proves that Greeks do not watch quality american television. The film borrowed heavily from Brian Fuller's Hannibal, from the kind of autistic criminology professor to the staged crime scenes. The script needed some polishing, some scenes were slow and repeated information, although they might have just tried to adapt to the greek audience, that has had less exposure to this kind of stories. It was a decent effort, not as good as american productions obviously, but far better and interesting than most other greek works. Dadakaridis will always be a favourite of mine, and although this film wasn't his top moment on screen, I am glad he is in it. We need more greek productions that dare to explore darker and more sinister territories, with intertwined elements of sophistication and gore.
