The Secret Agent2025

Shot brilliantly, some great scenes and Wagner Moura was the best thing. Not everything landed for me. It tried to show personal trauma, stories of people taking refuge, police brutality/corruption etc etc. Too messed up as to what the film want to convey towards the end. It’s a mixed bag of so many good things but I felt disoriented. Stunning film to watch visually though.  I don’t get the hype this is getting. I can’t believe this is getting a lot more attention in an ongoing awards season than far superior foreign language films like “It was just an accident” and “Sentimental value”. Not saying THE SECRET AGENT is a bad film. Just not award winning worthy (except best actor).
