Not that kind really


The Kindness of Strangers (2019)

Written & directed by Lone Scherfig this film stars Zoe Kazan, Andrea Riseborough, Tahar Rahim and Bill Nighy. A group of strangers in New York help each other as their lives cross paths.

I suppose if you are being generous you would say there is not really anything this film does wrong but it ends up feeling very empty. The characters all move along to inevitable conclusions that are fairly obvious from the start. For having a two hour run time I suppose the film's biggest failing is never really making a point or finding any meaning.

2/5
