Review of Domino

Domino (I) (2019)
8/10
De Palma sure loves Hitchcock
21 February 2020
It's a cool little espionage flick with a lot of Hitchcockian inspiration thrown in for good measure. It still manages to feel like a De Palma movie despite a smaller budget than some of his other projects. With movies like this I tend to worry about the intentions of the artist when turning terrorism to any minor or major extent into something that is meant to entertain, but I see no point here for any of this other than that the main character is both weak and flawed, just as we are; such is the point of any Hitchcockian thriller. Watch this film, don't attempt to gather any major message or fact from it because it will just begin to drive you crazy. It's great entertainment, and not much else beyond that.
