Amazons

About This Movie

Amazons is this curious blend of crime and drama that leans heavily into the thriller territory. The atmosphere is thick with tension as a mysterious cult, descendants of the Amazons, scheme for world domination. The pacing is uneven at times, but there's an intrigue that keeps you engaged, especially as a doctor starts unearthing their plans. Practical effects have that raw, 80s charm, adding a certain grit to the film. Performances vary, with some cast members really embodying their roles in a way that feels quite committed. It’s distinct for its thematic exploration of power and gender dynamics, making it a unique entry in the genre, even if it doesn’t always hit the mark.
