Recenziók (2)
A genre-torn film that starts a new interesting topic every so often, but soon replaces it with another one or sweeps it off the table with a twist of the story without being able to use it properly. On the other hand, this results in at least the pleasant unpredictability of the story. It is very non-standard horror, although it does not deny its roots in genre classics and traditional motifs - but it is more of a social horror, which does not even act as a horror film for ninety percent of the run time and is in fact mostly not even filmed as a horror. Maybe that's why some of its purely horror or bloody scenes are inadvertently funny, although in the context of everything around them, they are actually extremely impressive at the same time. In addition, the tempo of storytelling is well drawn-out, and the film tries to start more and more different ideas over time, but not all of them can lead to a satisfactory completion. However, a few scenes are etched into your memory easily and for a long time.

The Brazilian-French-German production Good Manners has a long running time, although I do not think it is unnecessarily long. The relationship between the two women is important in the movie's first half. In the second half, the focus is on what happened after the birth and beyond. It has some very good ideas, and it is filmed in a way that suits the narrative. I am usually not a big fan of the slow pace yet this movie succeeds in surprising you, and it is, therefore, a very interesting movie.
