Yellow

About This Movie

So, 'Yellow' (2017) is an interesting slice of drama that takes a pretty cerebral angle on youthful ambition. You've got these five bright kids who, after securing their invention, think a trip to Europe will be all sunshine and success. But things quickly spiral, and that’s where it gets compelling. The atmosphere is a bit tense, with an undercurrent of impending doom that really keeps you engaged. The pacing can feel uneven at times, but it mirrors the chaos of their journey. I found the practical effects to be quite minimal, which adds a certain rawness to their experiences. Performances are genuine, capturing that blend of idealism and reality that young adults face. It’s definitely got its quirks.
