Max Pearce has created an astonishing cinematic experience, which will no doubt stun the viewing audience. The film is an accumulation of distinguished craftmanship – from production design to onscreen talent. Rene Leach and Dor Gvirtsman both deserve huge acclaim for their enthralling performances, as does Jane Casserly and Ross Turner (in supporting roles). ‘Apotheosis’ has the aesthetics of a Hollywood block-buster – which is credit to the crew’s stellar proficiency. The blazing narrative, which keeps viewers on tenterhooks, is neatly structured and thoroughly entertaining. Highly recommended.
