Footnote is an intriguing exploration of the moral murkiness surrounding vigilante justice, set against a gritty urban backdrop. The film dives into Clive's obsession with exposing the darker side of these so-called 'Capes' who are supposed to be heroes. The atmosphere is heavy, almost suffocating at times, which complements the slow-burning tension between Clive and the capes. The pacing varies, with some scenes dragging intentionally to heighten the feeling of desperation in Clive's quest. The performances are layered, particularly Clive's, whose character is riddled with conflict. It’s distinctive in how it juxtaposes the media's glorification of heroism with the grim realities that Clive uncovers, leaving you questioning the very nature of justice.
