Daniel Craig's film Queer receives mixed reviews for plot and structure

theweek.com

Daniel Craig stars in "Queer," directed by Luca Guadagnino, portraying a troubled writer in 1950s Mexico City. Critics note Craig's strong performance but describe the film as lacking a compelling plot, with little dramatic action. The film adapts William S. Burroughs's novella, which some find limited in depth. Critics highlight its disjointed structure, presenting a series of loosely connected vignettes rather than a cohesive story. While visually appealing, "Queer" has received mixed reviews. Some praise its romantic elements and exploration of male loneliness, while others find it difficult to engage with the characters and their stories.
