The Destructions

About This Movie

The Destructions unfolds as a raw exploration of a young man's internal and external battles. It’s not just about the struggles of youth; it delves deep into the spiritual training that many overlook today. The pacing can feel meandering at times, but it carries an atmospheric weight that pulls you in, almost meditatively. The performances are a bit uneven, but they do manage to evoke genuine feelings of frustration and hope. I found its practical effects minimal but impactful – there's a grounded realism that makes the emotional crescendos hit harder. It’s distinctive for its unfiltered look at the chaos of growing up, reminding viewers of the risks and rewards of youth in a modern context.
