Review of Columbus

Columbus (I) (2017)
7/10
Nothing dramatic, just Raw Emotion

Warning: Spoilers
Nothing much happened in the movie, much like real life. However, I can relate to the emotions. How Jin said he didn't wish his dad would get better and was burdened by the expectation to dramatically grieve. I love this complicated and bold portrayal of parent child relationship. Jin and Casey's dynamic is rare and well balanced. They are very honest with each other and was respectful. I like that it is not some dumb romance. It is two people sharing a connection regardless of their age. The architecture shots are amazing, makes me wanna visit Columbus.

Some more remarkable scenes worth mentioning. The discussion around attention span and how people only pay attention to things that interest them. People who read is not necessarily superior to people who game. Plus, I love how Jin mocks Casey when she talks about her not using phone.
