It makes for an hour-long slog, albeit one you'll wish Cronenberg revisted and remade the Stars), Crimes proves to be a deliciously unsettling watch, albeit one that's so broad that it too frequently meanders off course, losing Crimes of the Future is an interesting film, because while I adore a lot of the technical aspects, whether it’s the purposely flat cinematography, Howard Shore’s incredibly futuristic score or the performances all around, the disconnect I feel while watching always leaves me feeling cold. I’m sure it’s intentionally presented this way, but I found myself a little underwhelmed, even on my second viewing of the film, even though my thoughts on it are mostly positive.
