I saw quite a few review saying how gross and extreme this is, so I thought I would hate this. After watching this on Prime, I don't think it's actually 'that' shocking.
Like, sure, there are many 'eww' scenes in there, but all the controversial scenes are done intentionally that way to provoke emotions and serve a purpose in the narrative.
Barry Keoghan's portrayal of Oliver Quick was impressive, with his creepy demeanor and unsettling vibe capturing the character well.
The visual style of the film is notably interesting. It starts off with this sort of dreamy quality and then slowly turns into a nightmare. This shift in tone was not only visually interesting but also felt very symbolic of the story's progression.
