So, 'The Cure' is an interesting little piece from 2021. It’s a short thriller, just under 15 minutes, but packs a punch. The atmosphere is tense, a tightrope walk of suspense that really keeps you engaged. The pacing is relentless, which works well for the format. There’s a modern gay hero, which feels refreshing and adds a layer of depth to the action. Practical effects are noticeable, and they do a great job enhancing the visceral moments. Performances are solid, especially considering the runtime – you get a sense of urgency and stakes that you often don’t see in longer pieces. It’s distinct for its blend of action and representation, all wrapped up in a slick, compact package.
