The Wonder (I) (2022)
4/10
It's not a psychological thriller
20 November 2022
Warning: Spoilers
This film is beyond boring and marketed entirely wrong.

This is a DRAMA.

The whole story and idea was really great but poorly executed by tricking you into trying to figure out what other worldly force is keeping Anna alive. Instead, it's actually a great story about how strong beliefs can impact people's actions. There was no need to try fiddle with adding a layer of unworldly uncertainty to the whole thing. That element takes away from the drama of the story and connection you should feel towards Anna.

Whilst the acting is all around great, you can't help but feel the film is trying to hard to just be something it isn't.

Also, the opening telling you that your watching a film.. why was that even there? That immediately ruined the tone of the movie.
