The Fall of Condor

About This Movie

The Fall of Condor is one of those films that really dives into the murky waters of power and betrayal. The atmosphere is thick with tension, reflecting the paranoia of a dictator who’s lost touch with the very people he once led. It’s interesting how the film captures this descent into isolation, with Manuel, the guard, being a fascinating character—someone who’s both devoted and yet ready to turn when it counts. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the viewer to soak in the political climate and the moral complexities. It’s gritty, almost raw in its portrayal of the regime’s collapse, with performances that feel authentic and lived-in. The practical effects, while sparse, serve the narrative well, emphasizing the stark reality of the situation.
