Film Review - It's What's Inside
October 04, 2024
“It’s What’s Inside” is a brain-bleeder from writer/director Greg Jardin. It’s a puzzle about personalities and identity, also dealing with the sharp edges of relationships that have exhausted their purpose, carrying on out of habit and a little bit of cowardice. It’s also a sci-fi tale of sorts, eventually becoming a game of “Guess Who” in a way, making for an interesting cinematic stew Jardin looks to spice up with tributes to his favorite filmmakers, including Stanley Kubrick and Gaspar Noe. It’s a wild ride for the most part, with the writing throwing viewers into hostile territory featuring characters gathering for a celebratory wedding weekend, only to be confronted by a chance to exit their bodies, generating all new opportunities for mischief and self-destruction. “It’s What’s Inside” has its storytelling issues, especially in the final act, but it remains a memorable depiction of chaos as experienced by people who welcome danger.
