Tides just aches to be a waterborne Blade Runner crossed with Mad Max , but instead emerges as even more waterlogged than Waterworld . A soupy, post-apocalyptic Europudding that needed more action, greater imagination and a star of some magnitude in the leading role, this tale of an investigation into the possibility of restoring life to a mostly decimated Earth is all dark, grim and clammy. Premiered in the Berlinale Specials section of the Berlin Film Festival , and exec produced by Roland Emmerich , this is a lumbering piece of very heavy metal that might achieve lift-off as acceptable generic fare here and there but not in more demanding markets.

‘Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn’: Film Review | Berlin 2021
Director Radu Jude's Berlin competition contender is a scathing social satire about sex, lies and videotape. Opening with a very real-looking hardcore sex tape, and climaxing with a deranged orgy featuring super-sized dildos, Romanian writer-director Radu Jude's latest taboo-busting polemical comedy is refreshingly untroubled by tasteful restraint. Shot during COVID lockdown last summer, with cast and crew all wearing anti-viral masks, the snappily titled Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn is a scattershot attack on sexual hysteria and political hypocrisy in an era of online slut-shaming. The humor is broad, the satirical targets many, the overall effect mixed. Partly inspired by real events, Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn world premieres in competition this week at the online Berlinale, where Jude previously won the best director prize for Aferim! (2015). Formally daring as cinema, but disjointed and schematic as drama, the iconoclastic auteur's ninth feature will divide viewers … [Read more...] about ‘Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn’: Film Review | Berlin 2021
