The cinematography in High and Low is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows
Just got out of High and Low and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.
Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in High and Low actually is?
Director clearly thought High and Low was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.
[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in High and Low?
Look, I wanted to love High and Low. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.
Unpopular opinion: High and Low is the most overrated film of the decade
