Review of Athena (2022) by A.o. Scott for The New York Times — 22 Sep 2022
Gavras’s filmmaking is technically impressive. He pulls the camera through complex, kinetic tableaus in long, breathless takes. Some of these sequences are thrilling, but after a while they become repetitive, and Athena feels more like a video game background than an actual place.
There’s no modulation.
