About This Movie
Crooked Earth is a slow-burning drama that dives deep into family dynamics and cultural legacy. Set against the lush New Zealand backdrop, it captures the raw tension between tradition and modernity. Will Bastion's return after two decades really sets the stage for a clash of values, especially with his brother Kahu stepping into the chief's role, albeit in a less than savory way. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to soak in the atmospheric tension. The performances feel genuine, especially the brothers’ portrayal of their conflicting paths. The practical effects and the natural settings lend an authenticity that enhances the story's emotional weight. It’s an intriguing exploration of identity and responsibility within the Maori community, with some unexpected turns that keep you engaged.
