Review of You Were Never Really Here (2017) by Habibiehakim — 27 Jan 2022

I must say that in the first 15 minutes I was still processing the movie, in terms of the character and the story, then the mission began, I was able to understand it and into the story, and it was just freakin' amazing till the end of the film, Joaquin Phoenix in one of his best performances, a mesmerising and stunning performance by Ekaterina Samsonov and they're chemistry was just perfect, it's a simple story and if the movie was just follow the basic story there is really nothing special at all, but director Lynne Ramsay didn't leave the real cold-blooded thriller spirit and characteresation backstory from the novel, and it was adapted to the film perfectly, overall, You Were Never Really Here was hell of a great movie.
