Movie Reviews of The Fourth Man
Movie Review: Signs and visions of looming doom...
Summary: 4 Stars
Gerard Reve (Jeroen Krabbé) is a renowned novelist and he is invited to Vlissingen's Literary Society to give a speech about his writings. On Gerard's travel from Amsterdam to Vlissingen, a Dutch seaside town, he is provided several mysterious warnings that are related to his Catholic beliefs. However, Gerard disregards the signs and spends the night with Christine Halsslag (Renée Soutendijk), the treasurer of the Literary Society. Christine invites Gerard to reside in her home, which Gerard accepts as he has an alternative motive. Gerard stays in Christine's house because he is attracted to her boyfriend from Cologne who is coming to visit and wants to meet him. As Gerard remains in Vlissingen the secular warning sings continue to haunt him. The question is why are these frightful visions and signs returning to him. Verhoeven creates a suspenseful story as it is built up around some moral taboo's and Catholicism, which are entangled in Gerard's desires and wishes. The 4th Man leads the audience into a spiraling build up of apprehension as the visions lead Gerard closer to the key behind the signs, which offers the audience a thrilling cinematic experience.
