Review of Ripley

Ripley (2024)
10/10
Andrew Scott Raises The Tom Ripley Bar
11 April 2024
Oh wow. I did not think it was possible to top the acting done so far as Tom Rippley and low-and-behold Andrew Scott has absolutely nailed-it. Wow.

This is stunning acting. How he reads the room and embraces his surroundings and owns it all with so much ease and natural charisma astounds me.

Serialised for straight-to-Netflix or STN for short; this is some absolutely mesmerising drama and world-class cinematography.

Black-and-white shoot makes it look even more noir than the movies shot in colour. It ads more depth and mystique. The cinematography is astounding and reminds me of Michelangelo Antonioni and Federico Fellini and Jean-Pierre Melville. True cinematic icons!

The script is excellent. I love how it is so close to the movies yet also with so much incredible detail and more explanations and extra scenes and longer shots.

Some great and audascious cinema and I don't want to spoil it just watch it! More of this Netflix.
