7/10
Painfully slow, but detailed and thought provoking
29 June 2024
It surely does take a significant amount of effort to recreate bygone era themes and this movie does that execution exceedingly well. From rituals to clothing to food, audiences would be thrilled and enamored to just comprehend what life was like back then.

Then it's the core theme of the movie, which revolves around what depression was like back then and how people dealt with it. Very much compelling and thought provoking.

But in between, this movie also has hideously slow pacing which can make audience yawn or even fall asleep, dreaming between 21st and 16th century.

There's a lot that could've been done here, but it seems the filmmakers decided to focus more on minute details of how people lived back then, than on developing a storyline that showcased how depression evolved.

Not a bad watch, but not something I would highly recommend as well. Gore was mediocre and felt more pushy and relevant.
