Review of Damsel

Damsel (2024)
7/10
Not bad but formulaic
23 April 2024
This is Netflix medieval fantasy movie Is certainly not bad, but deffinitely is not great either. If it were more into horror and less into adventure perhaps it would engage little more. It is not very convincing and atmospheric, despite the interesting general plot and some nice elements such as the light worms. Perhaps what was actually needed for a bettter outcome was an authorial director with a touch of magic such as Terry Gilliam or Jean-Pierre Jeunet or Guillermo del Toro, instead of Netflix producers making a film according their formula. The excess of clichés and the always obvious dialogues annoy.
