Turtles Swim Faster Than Expected (2005)

Interesting movie!!

This movie emphasises how perspective can really change your outlook on life, and how the one's ordinary life can actually feel exciting just through a change in mindset. It makes me think about what actual makes us happy - is it our environment or mindset? The movie's ending was a little too underwhelming after the great buildup of suspense, and I was a little disappointed with it. But I think its part of the charm of the movie as it shows that not everything in life goes how we would want it to, but there is a special uniqueness in continuing our everyday monotonous life. This idea is quite sound and the execution made it very clear.
The cinematography and shots were pleasant and unintruding, making it a slow-paced but pleasant watch. Like many other movies around this time, it is calming and the music is not too intruding.
I would someday rewatch this if I feel revising my mindset.
7/10 and I would recommend this for those who want a relaxed but slightly thought-provoking movie.
