    Written by RalphRahal on Fri Mar 07 2025
    Original Sin (2001) starts off strong with an intriguing setup, stylish cinematography, and some well-framed wide shots that give it a classic, almost dreamlike feel. The direction is solid in the first act, pulling you into a world of mystery and romance, but as the film progresses, it starts to feel a bit uneven. There are moments where the storytelling builds tension effectively, but then it stumbles with some forced scenes that don't entirely fit the character arcs. The script is melodramatic, leaning into its themes of obsession and betrayal, though it sometimes feels more like it's trying...
