Film Review: Good Boy (Beyond Fest)

Film Review: Good Boy (Beyond Fest)

About as cautionary a fable as you can have for both meeting strangers through online dating apps and not following first impressions, writer/director Viljar Bøe’s Norwegian chiller Good Boy (2022) is a dark journey, indeed. Part-time university student Sigrid (Katrine Lovise Øpstad Fredriksen) and non-working millionaire Christian (Gard Løkke) meet on tinder, and their first date goes well enough that they wind up in bed at his house. Things take a turn for the unexpected when Frank’s dog walks into the bedroom. Frank, as viewers see in the opening minutes of the film, is actually a man (Nicolai Narvesen Lied) in a canine costume participating in “puppy play” role playing. Naturally, this freaks Sigrid out, but once her roommate tips her off about who Christian is and about his wealth, Sigrid begins to second-guess the red flags she originally felt about the situation. She meets Christian at his home again and sparks fly even as she questions the relationship between

Movie Review: The Visitor

Movie Review: The Visitor

I’m not the type of viewer who tries to guess what’s going to happen next when watching a film for the first time, but there’s really no way not to have a strong suspicion of how things will play out while watching The Visitor. The film looks great and Justin P. Lange does a fine job of building a brooding atmosphere, but one doppelgӓnger and stranger-in-a-strange-land cliche after another makes for a lackluster seen-it-all-before effort. Robert (Finn Jones) leaves his native London to move with his wife Maia (Jessica McNamee) to her ancestral manor in the United States. Astute viewers will know right off the bat that the locals are being rather creepy in their kindness toward welcoming him, and it doesn’t help matters that Maia is giving him suspicious glances while this happens, and is reassuring him a bit too much that nothing is wrong when he discovers a painting of a man who looks like him in their
