Emilia Pérez 2024 Movie Review
Just finished watching Emilia Perez (2024) and it was fine I guess. There is a lot to like and dislike in this movie.
Positives for Emilia Perez (2024): The movie looks good with some great cinematography. The movie does get ambitious with the blending of genre thrown into the mix and I appreciate that. The performances from Zoe Saldana and Karla Sofia Gascon are very good. The musical numbers are fun to watch. And finally, I thought that the movie did a great job at telling it’s transgender story.
Mixed for Emilia Perez (2024): While the movie is certainly ambitious with its blending of genres, there are elements to this that felt out of place in this movie. The musical numbers feel like they just came out of nowhere and it felt jarring at times.
Negatives for Emilia Perez (2024): The movie is way too long and I feel that this movie could’ve told its story with a shorter runtime. The movie lost my interest almost immediately and it just became background noise for me.
Overall, I admired the filmmakers and actors for being ambitious with this movie, it just fully worked for me. However, I would still recommend this movie to people, if they are interested with this movie.
