Don’t Let the Box Office Failure Deter You, 'Bros' is A Classic Rom-Com
'Bros' is a must-watch for October's LGBTQIA+ History Month and it's as good a rom-com as any! Don't let box office numbers or misguided reviews deter you from this great film.
No One Will Save You is the sophomore film effort by director Brian Duffield. The sci-fi horror film follows a socially isolated woman, Brynn (Kaitlyn Dever), who must fight off an alien invasion under the cover of darkness. The film uses Greys, the infamous humanoid, gray-skinned aliens with lanky proportions and black emotionless eyes. The film explores themes of grief, trauma, and isolation. The film is also notable for having only five words of spoken dialogue throughout its entire run, instead relying on atmosphere and Dever’s fantastic acting to produce horror.
While Brynn is able to kill several individual aliens, she eventually succumbs to the overwhelming numbers and superior technology of the aliens. She experiences a classic abduction scenario, caught in a tractor beam and subjected to a psychic probing of her memories. Strangely, for reasons left unexplained, she is returned to the real world without any alteration to her memories, the implantation of a parasite, or replacement as a doppelganger, unlike the presumed fate of the rest of the town.
This ambiguous ending left many viewers puzzled. What did it all mean?

Disney remakes have often gotten a bad rap for their consistent reliance on the originals and overuse of CGI. However, Mulan is a remake that is able to transcend beyond Disney's other remakes with a confident and bold earnestness.
