Memory of Water (2022)

Written by MichaelChoi on July 8, 2023

Saara Saarela’s work has nice visuals and quality productive values due to its 2 million euro budget (sparing but appropriate use of CGI), but the idea of a young female rebel struggling against a brutal military dictatorship has been done to death. Hunger Games. Divergent. Etc etc etc and they did it with creativity. The pretty pictures cannot overcome a weak overall plot. There are good points and strong characters but this is not a movie you need to see. 3.5 stars.
