The weekend is upon us again and we once more get to see how the former art of movies has further tumbled down the mediocre realm with COVID effects. Tonight's review is a movie that looked to be the next twisted horror that would have everyone talking. With an odd advertising campaign, some delays, and now an at home review, does this film have what it takes to defy expectations and be a masterpiece? I'm taking another dive into the movie trenches in hopes of giving you some good opinions to assess if you should check this movie out or if you should skip it, as I review:

Summary:
A strong thriller like this where political idealism seems to be key is going to require a strong acting cast to lift the crew. Well. Monae accomplishes this and does so much of the lifting that the rest of the cast is almost absent. Without revealing any details, Monae's character spans this odd tail and requires her to play across the range of character traits from the oppressed slave trying to keep things together despite being tortured, to the strong headfast modern woman that is the hot trend. She does each role with poise, professionalism, and fervor that I was able to murk through the swamp of this movie by just focusing on her talent alone. The other characters do their part, for the little time they have, but they work to add some comedy, love, and attachment, though oddly placed, that our character needs.
Moving on the setting of the movie is interesting at times serving the theme of the movie and sometimes providing the necessary visual chemistry to get your spine tingling, Primarily the hallways of the hotel and the dark bliss of the night, Antebellum's setting adds some realistic fervor that is the true haunting part, but serves more so for the other them of this message as a political thriller. The music further helps add its own emotional fervor to the film be it creepy ambience to hint at something happening, aggressive tracks to represent the mood of the film, to even the inspiring orchestral piece designed to inspire and send you into battle. The audio and visual are certainly the gimmicks that will help set the mood and help try to drown out the limitations of the film, which with Monae as the center star are pretty much the main positives for this reviewer. In terms of originality, it at least took a different manor of presenting a limited used concept, which artistic goers will love to watch unfold, while casual goers may find a bit convoluted and forced.
However, this reviewer found more dislikes than likes for this film given the direction the trailers led me to believe would be the source. It starts with the pacing and the fact that the film is super slow and dragged out for a horror movie. Timing the film as I did, I found that the aspects I was looking for did not hit until around 45-50 minutes, with the first part being an elaborate set up for the potential twist. It's not so thrilling, and with my expectations, I believe that was the part that dragged the movie out. Despite the slow pace, the movie's plot unfortunately was not layered, developed, or entertaining for me and when looking at the frame of the movie was disappointing. Part of this had to do with the artistic presentation to be original, but for me it was the character usage that took away from the plot the most. So many promising characters she engaged with were limited in names, back story, and even emotional depth for me that they were almost negligible. Sure, each character presented something of the lead's life, but only fell into the background to try and keep track on what I think the film's real focus. Even the antagonists held little names, threat, and development, reduced to a realistic farce of what the usual antagonists of films like these are, but this forced background information, though late, was nice to see to help close the tale. Regardless, this limited tale you might hope has a fulfilling ending and in a way it does, but again depends on what you expect going into the film. On one side, you will feel some great justice, pride, and vindication for how the film ends, the messages, closure, and symbolism/representation so high you'll be beaming with pride. Yet, if you go in expecting that suspenseful, on the edge of your seat finale where characters are pushed to the brink, then lower the expectations because it is not that thrilling, engaging, or exciting for this reviewer. Simplistic sneaking around, some very lackluster and off balanced fighting, and monologues that do little to scare and build suspense are what await the eager horror person at this point.
In terms of the scary element of the film, you can guess that I was not chilled, disturbed, or creeped out by the "horror" element, outside of the realism this film held. The scary elements were more vicious bouts of violence, where the uncomfortable abuse factors are hard to watch at points, alongside some of the consequences that result. As I've said/hinted, the film really dilutes the horror element by instead choosing to go down the political drama avenue that I knew would be integrated, but not this prominent. Antebellum's writing, character usage, visualization, and twists are all on track for the current political hot trend track that social media seems to eat up these days. The writing in particular is a bit too in your face for me, going overboard to push the agenda and in doing so drop the mystery, horror, and much of the thriller aspect for me. While I agree the message is important, I'm not a fan of the modern trend of message over storytelling, so I can't say that that aspect alone is deserving of a high grade.
The VERDICT:
Let's wrap this up. Antebellum is definitely a disguised movie that teases horror, intrigue and mystery, but turns out to be more of a strong suited political drama with little else embedded in its backbone. The majorly talented Monae executes her role fantastically, hitting so many designs and directions that I could not help but be impressed with her skills as an actress. While the original presentation, visual elements, and sound editing are also strong aspects of the film, they don't help the pacing of the movie, barely establish the horror elements, and do nothing to improve the limited character/developed story of this film. As such, unless you need a new approach to the political movements of the day, this film is best left to cheaper renting later on down the line, and filling your day with HBO Max series like Lovecraft country instead.
My scores for this film are:
Horror/mystery/Thriller: 6.0
Movie Overall: 4.5.
