Mall (2014)
7/10
Not Everyone Can Handle A Challenge
19 May 2023
My title is how I feel about many of the other people who've rated this film on here so far. Currently a 4.9/10 rating? Almost unbelievable, but then I remember how few people are actually able to handle real life challenges in our modern world, or how many hate when their thinking is challenged, even just a little. This film will challenge you, that is if you even dare to think about what the film is saying much at all. Many people today however have conditioned themselves to cower, hide or run from things that challenge their minds. In my view, this is simply far from a healthy choice.

This film is based on a novel by Eric Bogosian. Partially written for the screen by none other than Vincent D'Onofrio, who also has a role in the film. Personally I found this film to be far better than its rating here on this site. Gina Gershon gives quite a great performance, and the film is simply thought provoking. It's an interesting film in my view, and one that still has gotten so little exposure. People that enjoy uniquely delivered and/or intellectually challenging or provoking films will likely find this at least worth a watch. My rating...

7.5/10.
