Review of Flee

Flee (2021)
2/10
Weak and biased
14 March 2022
An "animated docudrama" that ultimately fails. There is no connection with the protagonist who seems to exploit his tragedy in order to gain what he wants (both storywise and filmwise). Completely biased, the protagonist seems to be more bothered by the Russians than the Americans who destroyed his country together with the terrorists (it's "Vice Studios" after all). The animation style becomes tiring with its' stop-motion like effect, even if some parts are well made (especially the more abstract parts). Bad film, but it has all the ingredients to succeed, overall a well studied project to gain awards (but not our attention or empathy).
