Brady Corbet's The Brutalist delivers a powerful and electrifying cinematic experience, chronicling the journey of Hungarian Jewish architect László Tóth as he rebuilds his life in America after surviving a concentration camp. The film explores themes of survival, addiction, antisemitism, and the clash between dreams and reality.

There are movies that get an audience hyped, and then there are 215-minute-long movies that manage to get an audience so hyped that, during the intermission, as a countdown clock ticks away to the start of the second half, everyone is loudly chanting: Five, four, three, two… one! The first half of Brady Corbet’s The Brutalist should go down as the most electrifying cinematic experience at this year’s Venice Film Festival .

The ending leans a little too ambiguous, with a disappointing lack of resolution for Jones and Pearce’s characters, and a whiplash-inducing jump three decades ahead to an epilogue that—while impressively stylish—leaves the viewer feeling a little disorientated, and pulled out of the haunting atmosphere of everything that came before it.
