Review of Red Rocket (2021) by Gomesx — 11 Jan 2022
Phenomenal.
Simon Rex was a force to be reckoned with. There wasn't a single time I got bored with the guy. The dialogue along with her incredible charisma propelled the pace of this film to become emotional and a little filled with anxiety. What's more, he's made what is already a great script more investing.
The cinematography was again out of this world. A poor neighborhood in Texas seemed like a dream world.
Again, Sean Baker used the bizarre colors, eye-catching shapes and isolated locations of the houses to suggest a fantastical and ambiguous interpretation of the story. I think for this part, Red Rocket had a slight advantage over Florida Project because the ending in Red Rocket was smoother and made more sense.
