Viewing Stoker

Stoker is a suspense/thriller film that centers on the lives of family members who were victims of traumatic experiences. These stressful incidents in their past had immensely affected their personality to the point that they had developed  some kind of psychiatric disorders. Their illness had led them into a chaotic turn of events, interdependently affecting one character with another.

What I love about the film is its awesome cinematography. A lot of dolly movements and panning are involved to add to the thrill and excitement. The storytelling style is also worthy of praise since it has connected the past events adroitly to the present scenarios. Music is also commendable since it drives well with the emotions raised in the film. The actors are also in tune with their characters, making their portrayal effective. I have also observed a lot of symbolisms in the film, creating artistry and wit to the story.

Stoker is directed by South Korean filmmaker Chan-wook Park and stars Mia Wasikowska, Nicole Kidman, and Matthew Goode.
