Under the Knife

About This Movie

Under the Knife is a raw exploration of the NHS crisis, a documentary that packs a punch with its unflinching look at systemic issues. The pacing feels deliberate, almost like a slow burn, as it unravels layers of corruption and self-interest that plague the health system. The atmosphere is heavy, suffused with a sense of urgency and despair. It's not just about healthcare; it draws parallels to broader societal decay. The practical effects are minimal, relying instead on stark visuals and real-life testimonies, which somehow hit harder. The lack of a known director adds a layer of anonymity that might make you feel like you’re uncovering something hidden, which is quite distinctive in this kind of genre.
