Pylon

About This Movie

So, Pylon from 2017. It's a political thriller that really dives into the murky waters of power and corruption. The tone is pretty tense, with an atmosphere that feels almost claustrophobic at times. Jono Smith, the director, manages to create this creeping sense of dread that builds as the plot unfolds. The pacing is interesting, sometimes slow but in a way that lets you really soak in the tension. The performances are solid, although I wish they had done a bit more with character development. One of the standout features is the practical effects used, which add a grittiness that aligns well with the themes of manipulation and betrayal. It’s got a distinct feel that sets it apart from other thrillers.

Political themes are quite relevant.Look out for the practical effects.The pacing might not suit everyone.
