About This Movie

200, directed by Alexander Leikis Slettum, offers a gritty dive into the world of crime and drama. The film's tone is heavy, almost oppressive, giving you that constant feeling of tension. Pacing is deliberate, allowing you to soak in the atmosphere and the weight of the characters' choices. The performances stand out; they're raw and often unsettling, which fits the themes of moral ambiguity and desperation. Practical effects are used effectively, grounding some intense moments that could easily slip into caricature. It’s distinctive in its refusal to glamorize the criminal world, opting instead for a more realistic and often bleak portrayal of its characters. It’s not for everyone, but for those who appreciate a more somber narrative, it carves out its own space.
