So yesterday I watched David Michôd's 'The Rover'.
I liked the gritty, dirty atmosphere of the film. Despite being settled in a world where people are desperate for surviving no matter the cost, there's still a palpable emotional layer of vulnerability and fear, which makes the characters more humane.
The writing, directing, and cinematography are all well executed, but the selling point of this movie is the bizarre relationship between the angry loner Eric (Guy Pearce) and the naive and dependent Rey (Robert Pattinson), by showing what causes each subtle change in their relationship that leads to a much larger shift in their feelings about each other.
