Nominated for four Oscars, this heartbreaking drama is based on the novel of the same name, written by author Emma Donoghue. I was originally not planning on going see this in cinemas, but after being asked by a friend (who read the book) to go watch the film with her, I had a change of heart and went. Leaving the screening, I felt extremely happy that she convinced me to go see it, because Room is an incredible emotional rollercoaster ride and both of us left the cinema close to tears after witnessing this beautiful drama.
As with the “5th Wave” I did not read the novel, but I did hear good things about it. The book was nominated for several awards and won a bunch of them, including the Booker Prize. The author of the novel co-wrote the screenplay for its adaptation on the silver screen and from what I read online, it seems to be one of the better literature based films. All I can say is that this was one of the better movies I saw early in the year and it packed an incredible emotional punch.
Room revolves around the extraordinary tale of Jack (Tremblay), a 5 year old boy, and his highly devoted and loving mother Ma (Larson). Ma protects his child from danger, keeps him happy and well fed and is, like any good mother extremely committed to her son, but unlike other families, Jack and Ma are confined to a small living space they cannot escape and call Room. Jack was born in Room and knows nothing of the outside world; Ma feeds his imaginations with stories about room, to still his ever-growing curiosity. When Jack’s interests get him in danger, Ma develops a risky escape plan that will lead Jack to freedom.
Room has an unconventional structure compared to other motion-picture, because rather than having three acts it really has just two, with the first part focusing inside the room and the second outside their four walled confinement. It is an intense psychological portrayal of life; the good, the bad and how to grow-up, and for a drama with such a heavy plot it is surprisingly upbeat, which is due to the fantastic written script, the great directorial work and the amazing performances by it’s lead actors.
The way “Ma” keeps her hopes up in a dark and disillusioned situation, raising her son in the small quarters they are entrapped to and teaching him about morality, valour and virtue, touched me deep and kept turning on the waterworks. That room became everything for both of them and her son Jack is the most precious thing in her little world. The voice-overs by the boy, which gives the viewer a little insight into his train of thought, are remarkable and tell us bit by bit more about him and his mother. His innocent view of the world and how it changes once he breaks out and finds himself free was not only excellently written but also narrated superbly.
The only problem I had with this movie was on its rewatchability. As good as it was - and it was darn good, this drama also had situations that were very hard to watch due to its thematic. Personally, as much as I liked Room and as much as it managed to reach into my heart, I won’t be able to watch this film again.
Brie Larson gave an incredible rendition as the character of “Ma”; a breakthrough performances for this smaller known actress! She used perfect body language that indicated her true feelings and her verbal breakouts as well as her depression felt authentic. She incorporated her character, which was in a very difficult situation, perfectly and I believed every outburst of anger or sorrow I saw on the big screen. Larson was amazing and I am positive that we will see her blossom into one of the big movie starlet, in more leading roles.
Jacob Tremblay may be the best child actor I have seen in the last couple of years and it is an absolute shame he did not get nominated for an Academy Award, because his rendition was brilliant! The way he expressed Jack’s shyness and insecurity, but at the same time being at awe when experiencing something new, was beautiful to witness. Just like Larson, this young boy knew how to displayed different arrays of emotions, something that is rare for a child that young to know how to portray.
There were a couple scenes during the beginning, where he did annoy me (yelling at his mom and being disrespectful), but once the walls of his small world collapsed and make path for the much larger reality, he stepped up and became an incredibly interesting character.
Room is a well-shot movie, with fluent camera movements and vividly intense colours. The visual trickery that made the small space look bigger at the beginning, compared to it’s actual size that was shown one last time during the end, was fantastic. Cinematographer Danny Cohen did a tremendous job!
Verdict: Room is a beautiful looking movie, with surprisingly hope-filled characters. Both actors gave fantastic performances and Jacob Tremblay surprised me with his amazing rendition. The story is well structured and executed and looks beautiful on the big screen. Still, and as much as I adored this movie for hitting me on an emotional soft spot, it was also cringe worthy to watch due to the subject at hand, which I believe does hurt the rewatchability of this movie. Nevertheless, I was glad to have experienced it and will therefore give Room a 9 out of 10.
