A useful but uneven turn from Michal Vinik

Michal Vinik's contribution as Assistant Director gives Heroine (2020) a more specific texture. It supports the film well enough, though it rarely changes the temperature of a scene. I appreciated the intention more than every individual moment. There is some texture here, but I wanted a little more surprise. The performance has a clear idea behind it, but the execution is not equally strong throughout. A few scenes feel specific and grounded, while others fall back on familiar choices. My reaction is mainly about this specific film, not a judgement on the performer overall.
