Review of Kafka

Kafka (1991)
9/10
Cinematic Kafkaesk Wonder
7 March 2021
All these years somehow Soderbergh's Kafka slipped thru my screening sensors. Luckily and finally I got the chance to watch it - and found a new gem. Kafka, shot in black and white, is a fine homage to that outstanding writer and his works, and what we get is a very peculiar, odd and surrealistic story, supported by a strong cast (Jeremy Irons, Theresa Russell, Alec Guinness, Armin Mueller-Stahl) and a fantastic production. I recommend Kafka strongly to all who like to watch the peculiar, the weird and odd, the daring kind of movies, and who like expressionism and surrealism - but for sure Soderberg's vision is no movie for a mainstream audience. Kafka: one of those movies, that will enchanted you for 2 hours into a weird world; a movie every director (to be) should watch and analyse. Wonderful.
