PRE (2024) is a cerebral thriller that toys with the nature of existence and the confines of storytelling. You’ve got Fábio, the Delivery Man, and the Neighbor, but the brilliance lies in whether they even realize they’re trapped in a narrative. The film’s atmosphere is suffocating, almost claustrophobic, as it plays with time—reminding us that every frame is both a prison and a playground. The pacing is deliberately slow, which might throw off some viewers, but it builds this tension that feels palpable. Practical effects ground the surreal elements, and the performances keep you guessing about their awareness. It’s distinctive for how it blends existential themes with a thriller structure, making you ponder long after the credits roll.
