Tangerines poster

A little Georgian film that caused quite a buzz. Tangerines turned out to be a pretty typical East-European drama, quite low on style, leaning heavily on a central concept and the drama flowing from that. It received high grades everywhere, so it's definitely vibing with a lot of people, just not me.

Tangerines is not a bad film, it's just a bit uneventful, especially as the concept didn't really appeal to me. The anti-war message isn't very subtle, the conversations between the men not that interesting, and the lack of overt styling didn't do the film any good either. It's a short and gentle drama, but nothing very memorable.
