Reptile Review

A film by Grant Singer, known for his work in music videos, featuring the renowned actor Benicio Del Toro in a leading role alongside Justin Timberlake and several other prominent actors. This project instantly becomes appealing and intriguing, as it presents a mysterious murder case within a single household that evolves into a complex police investigation.

The movie unfolds like a typical detective story in its first hour, with a group of Police detectives trying to solve a murder case involving a victim who is the famous homeowner’s lover. They become suspicious of him before expanding the investigation to many other related individuals. These characters are introduced to mislead the audience into guessing the identity of the killer before wrapping up the case in the first hour. Then, as the remaining plot unfolds, the protagonist continues to investigate and gradually discovers that the initial case is deeply entwined with the police force itself. This is the true essence of the story, but it doesn’t offer any surprising twists or turns because the narrative subtly hints at the police’s involvement from the start. Various police characters engage in conversations about the case with the protagonist throughout the film, so viewers can easily make educated guesses. The real intrigue lies in how the story unfolds and reveals the secrets, following a standard formula.

The movie tells the story in a retro-tone, but in reality, it is set in the present day. It may appear a bit unusual, and the film uses a narrative style with very short scenes throughout, which seems to be the signature style of the director, especially in music videos. This makes the movie move quickly and keeps the audience engaged to some extent. However, the problem lies in telling the story through these short scenes one after another, making it difficult to delve deep into the narrative. It also makes it challenging for the viewers to connect the dots, even though they may understand the overall picture, there might still be some confusion about the sequence of events.

The best thing about the movie is the main character, Tom, played by Benicio Del Toro He portrays a tough and ruthless detective, a persona he has excelled at since his notable role in “Sicario.” He is a fantastic choice for this role, making the film intriguing and tense every time he goes investigation, giving you the constant feeling that he might die at any moment. However, the other characters in the movie seem to serve more as supporting elements, leaving you with doubts and not having significant roles in advancing the storyline.

The summary of this detective-themed movie starring Benicio Del Toro is that he delivers a fairly good performance, evoking suspense throughout the film. However, the movie itself Not good enough because of its rather ordinary and predictable plot. It also tells the story through a series of brief scenes, which isn’t effective in providing the audience with in-depth details.
