While it was visually gorgeous, Rabbit Trap felt a little lacking in terms of plot. It's very heavy on symbolism, especially towards the end, which I do appreciate, but there wasn't much in terms of story, and I also wanted to learn more about Welsh mythology, which unfortunately wasn't broached much. The actors did well, especially Jade Croot, and as I already mentioned the aesthetic and cinematography were beautiful; if you're a fan of Dev Patel or the cottagecore aesthetic, then you might like this film.

Never seen an audience respect the silence of a credits sequence so well

Really solid and enjoyed the acting. A little unsure about a couple themes pulling but really nice dimensions to it and enjoyed the tricksy feel. Between 3-3.5 maybe? Nice!
