Autopilot

About This Movie

Autopilot is a slow-burn drama that dives deep into the psyche of its troubled protagonist, a man released from a mental institution after years spent grappling with guilt. The atmosphere is heavy, almost suffocating, and the pacing is deliberate, drawing you into the man's internal struggles. What sets it apart is its raw, unfiltered exploration of grief and redemption. The practical effects are minimal yet impactful, serving the story rather than overshadowing it. Performances are deeply felt, with the lead embodying a haunting mixture of regret and hope. It's not about flashy moments; it’s the subtlety and a sense of realism that makes this film linger long after the credits roll.
