Movie Reviews:
- MSB: FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://www.msbreviews.com/movie-reviews/fresh-spoiler-free-review-sundance-2022
“FRESH is an unforgettably shocking start to another Sundance Film Festival, holding all of the characteristics to end up as one of the absolute favorites.
Mimi Cave delivers an extraordinarily captivating, assertive directorial debut, taking Lauryn Kahn’s original, gruesome screenplay to the next level. Sebastian Stan demonstrates his ludicrous range, while Daisy Edgar-Jones gives a breakthrough performance that may warrant a couple of awards by the end of the festival.
With an extremely engaging yet too quick first act, the viewers are immediately grabbed by the endearing love story that slowly builds up to a brutally impactful revelation, leading the movie into a rabbit hole of (in)tense, suspenseful, surprising developments.
The last twenty minutes are the definition of insanity.”
Rating: A-
- r96sk: ‘Fresh’ is very good – strong performances and perfectly chosen music are the main reasons for that.
I wouldn’t say it’s perfect, just because I don’t think it nails the split between humour and seriousness but apart from that it’s a terrifically made film. Daisy Edgar-Jones and Sebastian Stan give excellent showings, while the music throughout is top notch. It’s nicely paced and has an interesting story. Definitely one I’d recommend.
