Queer

Review

It's not a bad movie, but it fell short for me; it's missing something. I can't quite put my finger on what it is, but I was expecting more. I found the main characters rather flat, and I couldn’t get immersed in the movie or their relationship because it felt as if it didn’t exist. Since I didn’t see any depth in the characters, I couldn’t feel those emotions or that need for the other person. That said, visually it’s beautiful, and in my opinion, given that it is (or tries to be) so mystical and leans toward dramatic sentimentality, I find the simplicity and vagueness of the characters even harder to understand.
