Priest positive review
2022-04-19 08:01
"Priest" is short and concise as a whole, with concise and clear content, without sprawling narratives, and a relaxed rhythm. The creation incorporates elements of various Hollywood genres, a mixture of various classic genres of science fiction, horror, action, adventure, and western films. Combine various elements cleverly and seamlessly. Visually, "Priest" shows a dark apocalyptic style with unique characteristics. Many scene visuals and designs as well as cast members have shown a strong oriental cultural atmosphere, which is refreshing. In the standardized production, the film also revealed some personalities and intentions to pay tribute to the classics.
The film is set in a virtual end-century. After the war between humans and vampires is over, they are forced to retreat to the dark city. Religious despotism takes the opportunity to control the freedom and thoughts of most people. But under the dictatorship, the freedom of human nature will eventually break through the shackles of power.
