Review of Well

Well (2016)
8/10
Like a Hungarian Western
27 November 2022
A gas station in the middle of nowhere, Hungarian puszta, Australian outback, American prairie.

Sleepy and nothing much happens till a broke down camper arrives with fleeing prostitutes on their way to the West.

All so lazy until the bad men arrive and then it becomes escalating mayhem ...

Indeed the violence escalates to Tarantino levels, but always with a deft touch of comedy.

It was a really enjoyable experience, with good cinematography and direction.

Was it derivative, of course. Remenicent of early John Carpenter movies.

Watched at the time in smallest movie house in Budapest, but I bought it this Summer on DVD and will re-watch soon !
