AlexGarland's latest film is a terrifying journey through the female gaze and the horrors lurking in the English countryside.
When a film poses complicated questions, is it obligated to answer any of them? That’s going to become a popular topic of discussion around Men, the latest thriller from Ex Machina and Annihilation filmmaker Alex Garland, which delivers a thought-provoking exploration of trauma, gender dynamics, and primeval fear through the lens of the horror genre.
Garland has a knack for threading intricately beautiful elements with a sense of sinister foreboding, and that talent is on full display in Men. Scenic shots of the English countryside are filled with an unease suggesting some unknowable terror just over the horizon, and every perfectly framed, evocative shot has you looking for some barely perceptible threat lurking in the shadows, preparing to pounce.
Kinnear has played multiple characters in Penny Dreadful and Our Flag Means Death in the past, but Men pushes the multirole performance to a degree that would test any actor, regardless of how comfortable they are with that kind of project — and Kinnear pulls it off perfectly. What Garland doesn’t do, however, is provide any concrete answers to the questions posed by that scene or much of the story leading up to it.
