Doors (2021)

Very cerebral sci-fi. Incredible little chapters creating this one story of ‘The Doors.’ This imo is a ‘watch alone.’ I had some herb and poured a drink and sat back with no expectations. 7-8/10. I recommend. live long and prosper meh trekkies.

The cinimatography imo was on point. The soundwork and soundtrack was on point - and preachy as the first segment might have been, it was very ‘relevant’ and ‘with the times.’ They then pushed the story forward with hip screencard texts which I thought was a cool and clean way to deal with exposition and keep the tone without too much shift, this kept the story, the audience and the camera focused on whats going on, whats next, and whats happening.

So the good, the bad, the ugly.. Whats good imo was the premise and the stories told (not to mention sound, visuals and atmosphere - all great.) The bad was there were certain segments that skimped on budget and effort (but didn’t take away too much at all from the overall mission which was a success imo) The ugly also has some beauty and its pointing again to budget and effects which were great for the most part maybe 8/10

so while its going to be a tiny bit obvious that they weren’t all rich and there’s little to no big names attached, they still managed to far outdo many of the ‘too big to fail’ Hollywood flops of recent years. Its definitely a ‘recommend’ and will be added to my collection of favorites which Im just starting to build on this site so follow me for more gems and reviews like this.
