Review Film: Crocodile Tears
Crocodile Tears, a film developed since 2022 and screened at international festivals, attempts to explore a mother-son relationship with psychological conflict and crocodile mythology. While Marissa Anita delivers a compelling performance as a mother with mental health issues, the film's slow pacing and ambiguous execution may alienate general audiences. Despite narrative shortcomings, the performances and atmospheric setting within a real crocodile park offer a unique, albeit flawed, cinematic experience.
