So, 'Roar' is a 2020 crime drama that really dives into the weight of familial ties and the darkness lurking in everyday life. The pacing is deliberate, almost meditative at times, which gives it a unique feel. You’ve got Makoto, who’s trying to escape the shadow of his brother’s actions, and then there’s this silent vagrant character – intense and enigmatic. The atmosphere is quite bleak, with a rawness that’s hard to shake off. And Hiromi’s storyline adds this layer of tension, dealing with unwanted attention in her workplace. The performances are understated but impactful, pulling you into their world. It’s the kind of film that stays with you, not through flashy effects but through its quiet intensity and heavy themes.
