FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://www.msbreviews.com/movie-reviews/resurrection-spoiler-free-review-sundance-2022 "Resurrection is an exceptionally tense, frighteningly realistic psychological thriller, deeply elevated by a masterclass performance from Rebecca Hall. The latter becomes a major contender for awards even beyond the festival, offering an unforgettable, mesmerizing, haunting display of a traumatized mother. From a hypnotizing, uninterrupted 10-minute monologue to nerve-wracking interactions with an also remarkably creepy Tim Roth, Andrew Semans puts the actress through shocking, disturbing plot points and emotionally devastating character development. The lingering cinematography and powerfully effective sound design exponentially increase the suspense and intensity levels. A divisive, multiple-interpretation ending may divide some viewers, and a slight loss of momentum during the second act may reduce the climax impact, but these are minor issues in what will end up as one of the very best movies of the year."
