Compliance Blu-Ray Review
Synopsis: Inspired by true events, COMPLIANCE tells the chilling story of just how far one
might go to obey a figure of authority. On a particularly busy day at a suburban
Ohio fast food joint, high-strung manager Sandra (Ann Dowd) receives a phone
call from a police officer saying that an employee, a pretty young blonde named
Becky (Dreama Walker), has stolen money from a customer. Convinced she's only
doing what's right, Sandra commences the investigation, following step-by-step
instructions from the officer at the other end of the line, no matter how
invasive they become.
Review: Compliance is a fantastic art house film, loosely based on the incidents in real-life at a Kentucky McDonalds. If you're not familiar, google it. Basically, a prank caller contacts a restaurant manager and says he's a cop and one of the employees is a suspected criminal. What ensues is a bizarre test of compliance to authority that can hardly be understood or believed. If the film were not based on real life events I would call it absurd. This is a disturbing and eye-opening watch.
Interest Range: Drama
