✦Review
5.4/10★★★☆☆ 5.4Poison Ivy has left the audience in an uncertain state since the first scene. The story is the beginning of a complex chain of relationships that is shaped by a lonely and troubled young girl entering another young girl's life. This is the beginning of a series of subtle tensions as she invites the audience to face the psychological depth of the characters. Star performances, particularly the inner conflicts of the main characters, turn into a dramatic reality. The film constantly restricts the audience's expectations by combining dramatic elements with tense moments. Sound design and music constantly reinforces the atmosphere in transitions between scenes. From a cinematic perspective, film offers both aesthetic and narrative integrity. The movement of the camera and color palette also visually reflects the inner complexity of the characters. As a result, Poison Ivy remains a profound experience that drives the audience into the mysterious world of characters.
✓Pros1
- The successful integration of tension and drama, the psychological depth of the characters, the well-used lighting and stage transitions, strengthens the sound design scenes, and the director's vision is clear and consistent.
✕Cons1
- Some parts of the story's progress may slow down, some scenes may feel a lack of expressive dialogue.
