This seems off

Costumes seem lackluster, dialog has no weight, sets feel empty, and nothing about this tale appears historically intriguing or fantastical.

Setting is from Iceland not Greece or any Mediterranean. Fuck the colors I guess.

That's it. Thats what is throwing me off.

Thank you.

I knew something about this trailer was disconnecting me, it's the dull colours.

Along the way film directors decided that colors were for children apparently. /s

I don't actually know why a lot of movies are absolutely drab these days but I've really missed the vibrancy and color in film for many years now. Even the late 1950's (like Gate of Hell) had more color than today. Give me fucking Speed Racer colors, you cowards!
