Red Flags

About This Movie

So 'Red Flags' - it's kind of a slow burn, yeah? Sam Liddell really dives deep into the psyche of the protagonist, Alex. The whole film feels like peeling back layers, especially with how it uses his videos to unravel his mental health struggles. The tone is heavy, yet there's this raw, almost intimate atmosphere throughout. It's not flashy, but the practical effects, when they do appear, really hit hard, enhancing the emotional impact. The pacing can feel deliberate, but it builds tension nicely. Performances are solid, particularly the lead who brings a haunting vulnerability. There's a distinct realism here, making it resonate in a way that some dramas tend to gloss over. Definitely not your conventional narrative.

Strong focus on mental health themes.Interesting use of practical effects.Pacing leans towards a slow burn, but effective.
