THE MULE
Recommended. Beautiful flowers in blossom are an unusual start of a story, inspired by true events, of a 90-year-old smuggler. However, the crime intrigue is gripping and the old chap totally lovable. Clint Eastwood, Bradley Cooper and Laurence Fishburne pull off convincing and heartfelt performances. Not so predictable either. Nice clean shots.
MONUMENT
Watchable. By Jagoda Szelc but much better than her earlier "Wieża. Jasny dzień" ("Tower. A Bright Day"). Uses a lot of bluish light, the colour which is later carried onto blue plastic wrapped round the monument. But it all looks less eerie than the events. It'a as incomprehensible as her previous film but more attractive due to the uncanny character of a morbidly obese woman in the basement and strange behaviours of the more and more confused staff. Comfortingly no animal parts were used in the scene of cutting meat.
