MOVIE REVIEW: INCENDIES (2010)

Genre: Drama/Mystery

Language: French and Arabic w/English Subtitles. 

It's a masterpiece movie. A French-language film by Canadian director  Denis Villeneuve. Its dynamite plot, tremendous powers, discrimination, and a few more themes, make it the most illuminating best film for ages. This is what shows the greatness of the director to a cinephile.

Denis Villeneuve did perfect justice to the image, word, and sound of cinematography. He maintained a balancing act, and storyline. The beginning is the end, and the end was the beginning. It gives goosebumps. Simply, it's a bone-ratting film. It takes courage to see the end. 

A story of woman Nawal  Marwan, who left Testamentary for her twin children in two letters. One for their father who was dead, another for their brother they didn't know anything about. It captures the hell out of the living thing. It's the ending that Incendies leaves the audience breathless, proving to be a masterpiece of art.

A long way to narrowed conclusions. But it's worth watching. It's a mystery that is amazingly sharp and going down in the body to feel it, and crave what's next. Then it ends, like all in one. It has shaken my soul, undeniably perfect. Tears, more tears on suffering. It's a powerful creation of the director.

I can't highly recommend it enough. My best movie watch of 2022.
