2024 production humane Not humane at all. It’s been described as a horror/thriller, but is more of a black comedy. Ironically, the world is actually suffering from “baby recession.” No one is having children, or at least the birth rate is low enough that experts worry;
Of course, climate change is a problem, and our planet really can only accommodate a limited number of people.
but.
story
Climate change means the world cannot produce enough anything. The world has decided that it must reduce its population by 20%. In the United States, the government requires people to “enroll” in a euthanasia program that pays survivors of conscripts a sum of money.
Probably buying something that doesn’t exist.
Charles dropped the bomb that he and Dawn (Uni Park) were involved in a euthanasia program. His family was not happy about the news.
main actors
Jay Baruchel is Jay York. son:
Charles York as Peter Geller
Emily Hampshire is Jay’s wife Rachel.
Sebastian Chacon plays Noah, Charles’ adopted son and Jay and Jay’s brother.
Ashley: Alana Belle
Enrico Colantoni plays Bob. Leader of a squad of thugs who either collect or kill and collect volunteers who want to “help” the family.
behind the scenes
Caitlin Cronenberg (David’s Daughter) brilliantly brings this dark and often funny story to life from a script written by Michael Sparaga. The script is very good. It contains a talented cast of characters. Noah had a drug problem. He was finally clean. Charles and Dawn are both public figures. One is a host and the other is a famous chef.
Jay is a politician and Ashley is a struggling actor.
Despite covering the news for years, Charles is incredibly naive, and Jay has his own form of naivety.
humane as the title is a complete dichotomy. As the film progresses, it becomes clear that this family and goon squad are anything but humane.
honor
First of all, I must praise the young actor Sirena Gulamgaus, the youngest member of the York family. Sirena has a remarkable sincerity that explains her ability to make her “York” so believable.
Nice to see personal favorite Enrico Colantoni. His performance as the alien leader in Galaxy Quest was outstanding. Mathesa. exist humaneHis bob has layers. a lot of.
exist humaneBob is a friendly leader but has a difficult job. But when Dawn goes for a run, his true personality comes to the fore. He asked for it to be replaced as soon as possible. Someone else has to fill the body bag.
Things got messy.
judgment
i can give easily humane 4 stars out of 5. The acting is pretty good and the violent mayhem at the end definitely works well. However, the film loses its entire star because it feels very contrived. Seriously? Every movie about “rich people” these days features dysfunctional families. The York family, however, took the cake. In other words, where there’s dysfunction, there’s the York family.
The film is still effective and entertaining. humane Currently streaming on AMC+.
