Review of Columbus

Columbus (I) (2017)
6/10
Pretty, but pretty uneventful...

Must start by saying John Cho and Haley Lu Richardson are great in the film. Haley Lu Richardson is especially watchable in this.

For me the film was just way too pedestrian. It's a very thoughtful film and mature in it's feel. But if you had to sum up the film to a friend I'd struggle to actually say what it's about. Architecture? Relationships? Both I guess. But I didn't personally feel that's enough for a full length film.

I kind of enjoyed it but if I'd skipped the last half I don't feel in any way I'd have lost out on anything memorable.

Arty, but really it didn't make me think about anything other than trying to find a point to it. Maybe this is a film for film students and film festivals.

Well made and nice looking with good acting, but pretty thin.
