Eye Without a Face

Eye Without a Face (2021) is definitely not a good movie, but it's not nearly as bad as IMDB reviews claim it to be.

I love to watch films that feel like they were made by an alien or an AI. This one is very much like it. It appears that they didn't know how human beings operate and what real life is in general.

It gets quite hilarious at times, like some of the "tense" scenes are legit funny. You can't make this stuff up intentionally.

The acting was mostly the film's strongest point. The Australian struggling actor was either a very well played character or an actual real-life struggling actor who was well-cast for the role.

The production was very light. It feels like this film was very cheap and efficient. We only get a couple of rooms and a quick walk capture, that's all.

At times bits and pieces of social commentary pop here and there, which is cool, but the film isn't really about that, unfortunately.

I love how the main lead lives in a jhuggi-type house, and I surely know why he does. You know his "computer skills" are just so high because he turns off his monitor each time he leaves. Or maybe it's all the scissors and pliers on the wall, together with a pair of old TV circuit boards.

I know I'm just making fun of this, but it's better this way. Believe me. You don't even want to try to understand how this story is supposed to work.
