Annihilation (2018): Movie Review


                                                      

        Jim Pagiamtzis review
              Lena (Natalie Portman) is on journey with 3 other women into a magical space where many have gone before and not return. Then her husband Kane (Oscar Isaac) goes in and come back little different. Lena then offers to go in to get some answers and is thrust into an adventure where reality and reasoning don't mix.  Slowly the plot unravels and the answer to come hence very slowly.

           There a lots of back and forth from flash backs to insights on their question and the what the experts with her and thinking may have strong clues as to what is happening to them

           Sadly this film is a like a slow moving snail going across a very long tree. Very similar to Arrival (2016) and Life (2017) with  lots of questions and not enough answers as to why!

             If you do some researching online you can draw your own conclusions

      5 out of 10
     

        Movie plot:
             A biologist signs up for a dangerous, secret expedition into a mysterious zone where the laws of nature don't apply.
