Description: The unsettling quiet of "Good," a film that burrows under your skin rather than blasting you with spectacle, is its most potent weapon. It’s a slow burn, a character study meticulously crafted to expose the chilling fragility of morality. Viggo Mortensen’s performance as John Halder is a masterclass in controlled unraveling, his descent into complicity both horrifying and strangely sympathetic. The film doesn't offer easy answers, instead prompting a profound examination of personal responsibility amidst societal decay. It’s a challenging watch, yes, but one that lingers long after the credits roll, leaving you questioning the very nature of good and evil and the seductive power of silence. A potent exploration of moral ambiguity, "Good" is essential viewing for anyone interested in the complexities of the human condition.
