Review of The Power

The Power (2023)
6/10
This is like The Last Of Us....

...in that it like reading a big book, an epic. It has many moving parts acted out throughout the world and the slow burn really works. It's not all about action - just like The Last Of Us - it's about character growth and story building. The performances are excellent - what has Toni Collette ever been in in which she hasn't been outstanding? - and my one concern going in that it might be a feast of man bashing so far hasn't happened. Yes there are nods in that direction but they are realistic and are not just there to beat home a message, they are paramount to the story. I've watched two and they flew by. It is beautifully photographed and I am looking forward to the next tonight. I was pleasantly suprised how much I did enjoy this.
