　　一名科學家在實驗中不小心沾到了一種具有快速成長特性的化學液體，不久，他就變成了半人半獸的水怪。這時，野心分子也想獲得這種具有快速成長特性的化學液體的秘密公式，他們遂派員追殺持有科學家記事本的電子專家。后來他們發現了這名科學家的下落，終于在沼澤區這幫野心分子跟科學家變成的水怪展開了決斗。這是一部滑稽可笑的科幻動作片，水怪的化妝和服裝都顯得愚笨而不能入信，對白亦平淡乏味，整部影片露出了低成本制作的粗糙感

Ay?e, Ali, Mehmet and Zeynep are middle-class millennials struggling to make ends meet in Istanbul. Either still living with their parents or hardly getting by without help from their families, they are all beset by similar woes: money crunch, joblessness, social isolation. In view of the world’s horrors that Zeynep enumerates in her diary entries, these are minor problems, ‘slight disasters’, but they are all-consuming, at least to the extent of making them cry in the still of the night. 　　However, Umut Subasi’s first feature, Almost Entirely a Slight Disaster, is not a melodrama. With an appealingly light touch, it diagnoses the malaise of a generation that has run up against a dead end, one whose future prospects are indistinguishable from a game of chance. This is a world where astrology, the lottery and online personality tests compete with visa and job applications as life-shaping elements. 　　Fittingly, the film is structured around chance and coincidence, with its handful of characters encountering each other in every permutation, as though there were no world outside this small social bubble. With self-aware, frontal framing that pins characters to their surroundings and a counterintuitive musical score that turns pathos into humour, Subasi offers a social-media movie without social media, one whose characters are united in their double lives and frustrated desires. 　　源自：https://iffr.com/en/iffr/2023/films/almost-entirely-a-slight-disaster
