I like puzzles and The Woman in the Fifth poses a rather interesting, if not really complex one, yet its director, Paweł Pawlikowski expects you to do most of the work while he hides his move and never really reveals it.

From the beginningI like puzzles and The Woman in the Fifth poses a rather interesting, if not really complex one, yet its director, Paweł Pawlikowski expects you to do most of the work while he hides his move and never really reveals it.

From the beginning and before reaching the halfway point, this film has shown several paths it could have taken, but the main idea seems more interested in focusing on confusing than explaining.

Clearly there's more to the background of the events unfolding on screen, but it all rests on Ethan Hawke's character and the questions pile up one after the other. A lot of things are hinted at, but most of the time you're gonna have to play the guessing game.

As I said, I liked the enigma, but it needed more than just what I could imagine.… Expand
