Where Is Kyra? (2018)

Thanks for the memories!

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

The acting in this movie is really good.

"Where is Kyra?" - not just a film featuring one of the best performance from Michelle Pfeiffer, it's also one of the best movies she ever done in her entire career (At least the best since 2002's White Oleander).Michelle Pfeiffer plays Kyra Johnson, a middle-aged, divorced woman who recently lost her mother and struggling to survive. The movie is stylishly directed by Andrew Dosunmu, It's the type of role we always want Michelle Pfeiffer to play-fragile, vulnerable, heartbreaking, yet also a life fighter, it has been ages since Michelle plays someone so real and solid like Kyra. Despite the atmosphere of the film is overall depressive and chilling (the director treats it almost like a thriller in the second half of the movie), the love line between Kyra and Doug is extremely romantic."Where is Kyra?" is not something fun to watch, but it absolutely worth your time for an 1 hr and 38 mins character study of Kyra Johnson, with top class performance by Michelle Pfeiffer on screen every mins, and every mins of her on screen is a real treasure.

The lighting in this movie is so horrible that all you see are basically the character's silhouettes you never get to see much of their faces, which keeps us at arms length from them, missing facial expressions which is half of acting. The most frustrating movie to watch. And painfully slow. What a waste of Pfeiffer's talent. Such a crime, her most powerful scene in the movie, we cannot see anything of her except an outline. There are maybe two scenes in this whole movie where you can actually see their faces. This director should be banned from making movies with major talent, He wastes our time and theirs.

In Brooklyn, New York, Kyra (Michelle Pfeiffer) loses her job and struggles to survive on her ailing mother's income. As the weeks and months go on, her problems worsen. This leads her on a risky and enigmatic path that threatens her life. Michelle Pfeiffer does give a good overall perfomance in 'Where is Kyra?' but the film is very moody, dark and depressing that took me completely out of the film. This woman has been giving great perfomances for years anyways (remember Batman Returns?) but this movie doesn't exactly give her or the audience what they wanted to see or what perhaps they were expecting and the final product is very slow paced and also very boring as a whole and a waste of Pfeiffer's truly magnificent potentials as an actress. (5/10)

Loved this film so much and Michelle was excellent in it, her performance brought tears to my eyes , a must watch for all pfeiffer's fans
