'Twinless' Sundance review: Everybody will be talking about this wild movie
Briefly

"Twinless," the standout film at Sundance by James Sweeney, diverges sharply from typical indie fare. With actors Dylan O'Brien and Sweeney, it chronicles the relationship of two men struggling with the loss of their twins. While it appears to fit the mold of quirky, feel-good cinema, it rapidly darkens, delivering a profound exploration of grief. Rapid cuts maintain a relentless pacing that oscillates between humor and discomfort, transforming initial expectations into a nuanced emotional journey. Audiences are left anticipating a film that challenges standard narratives of loss and friendship.
‘Twinless’ begins innocently enough, but soon transforms into something much darker and more psychologically sinister. Sweeney’s unpredictable movie twists while maintaining depth in its characters.
Expect paralyzing grief to evolve into something different. The film offers a brisk pace with abrupt cuts that bring both laughter and cringes throughout.
