ChanBot i must have seen a different film!!
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
magnusmax Breathe is a delightfully shot and acted little piece by first-time director and unanimously agreed motion-capture master Andy Serkis. I find that often a poor ending to a story does a rather good job of nullifying everything that's come before it - sadly, Breathe comes under that category for me. Marvellously acted with a terrific cast and brought to life with very nice period set design, it nonetheless falls flat at the end, as it presents a biased and controversial case for euthanasia.Digging into the specifics a little - particularly the aspects I really liked -, I want to talk a bit about mood. I agree with those reviewers who summed up the emotions of the movie by proclaiming something like the following: "I laughed, I smiled, I cried." Serkis successfully blended drama with comedy, crafting a (mostly) lovely film that had a classic British feel and clever sequences of suspenseful, thrilling moments; followed by heart-warming, jolly ones; followed by misery-inducing moments of intense drama and pain. The scenery choices were perfect, and the general visuals and aesthetics were pleasing.Returning to those negatives, the end was given more time and attention than I think it deserved. It felt over-long, and really seemed to push for assisted suicide. It's important that movies tackle real issues, but when a film justifies something as correct and good and true when it isn't, it partly ruins everything. Much of the movie is inspiring, motivational and positive - until the end, when, after so much perseverance, our star simply surrenders. Although it's on the better end of romances, I also think the movie became at times too kissy.
asgarhaider8 Films like this should be celebrated for years. I didn't even knew the real story before i watched this movie. It was so wonderfully portrayed by the two main characters. The locations were wonderful. Shows the beauty of life and how to appreciate life and family even in the worst of situations. There are still many underprivileged people that face daily problems like this. the message is simply to try living for themselves and for the people that care for them.
the_mora_family Heartbreaking and yet inspirational. Definitely unconditional love does exist; perhaps not for everyone just because they haven't found it but obvio it does exist. We daily complaint of things that makes us upset and aggravating and yet those things are minors compare to what goes on on other people's life. Amazing performance by Andre Garfield. Thank you to Jonathan Cavendish for sharing his family amazing story
myopnionis Great acting and great story. It wasn't sappy at all. Kept my interest the whole time and didn't drag ever. Strong people who dont take no for an answer. Some humor as well!
