City of Ghosts offers a gritty look at the underbelly of life in Cambodia, juxtaposed against the backdrop of a con artist's desperate escape from his past. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, maintaining a certain tension but allowing for moments of introspection. The atmosphere is thick with a sense of dread, and there's something unsettling about the way the landscapes are captured—almost like a character in itself. The practical effects lend a raw authenticity to the scenes, making you feel the weight of every choice the protagonist makes. Performances are subdued yet compelling, particularly as the lead navigates moral ambiguity in a foreign land. It's a film that lingers in the back of your mind long after the credits roll.
