RyothChatty ridiculous rating

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Michael Ledo Alice (Rachel Weisz) plays "The Great Imposter" as we get snippets of her life as an ER nurse and magician's assistant which teaches her some great bar tricks. She is on her ninth life as a botanist in order to meet up with Tom, (Michael Shannon) an old friend some 15 years ago. She makes a confession to him as he struggles to understand "Eat Pray Love." Amazon took a great idea, wonderful actors, and made it boring. The character of Rachel Weisz was exciting...as read and not seen. They didn't bother to really develop her character, the main feature of the film. We learned very little of her past relationship with Tom, other than she had one. They sucked any possible humor out of the film, yet never created a feel good drama.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

Ian (Flash Review)Ever try to be someone you aren't? Like telling a stranger you are a former professional athlete or doctor or specialized scientist? How long could you stretch the truth and make up stories on the fly? That is the crux of the protagonist as she wrestles with the constant need for change vs hanging on to certain things and people from her true life. The film is basically a dialog driven character study as the story just follows her as she connects with the one person from her real life with no typical plot objectives. An interesting concept yet it felt a bit uneven at times.

adonis98-743-186503 As a man contemplates moving to a new state with his wife for her graduate program, an old flame - a woman who often changes identities - reenters his life at a birthday dinner party. Complete Unknown suffers from a bad script and a very dull plot, the pacing is really bad and it's edited very poorly with shots of people's backs or even some empty room. The very first few scenes make no sense and unless you see the trailer or read the plot you won't really understand what this woman is doing for the past few years. Overall this movie is bad and the director should feel bad for wasting the talents of Rachel Weisz, Michael Shannon, Kathy Bates and Danny Glover and i'm gonna give it a 4/10.

pmacinerney Modern/ classic. Elegant/ mondiale. Pinteresque-Aeschylean. Open patiently to it. Accept, observe/ welcome. As you would a brilliantly-acted theater piece. Permit the brilliant actors Weisz, Shannon, et alia to perform; let the plot sequence. As you do, listen to the voicings/ dialogue-phasing -- as you might frogs' singing during a night in a Tasmania. Value the gestures and changes and blockings and incidents: Jenny's swimming, speeches about frog-song study; Tom's futile emailing and efficient cake- cleaving. Understand Tom's wife's jewelry-making and California dreaming -- for both of them; Kathy Bates's and Danny Glover's Magic Theater can't walk-goat meat playlet; the Jenny-Tom embrace -- letting go/ don't let go -- at the end of their Walpurgisnacht eclaircissement.It's a play of actors with character and incident, dialogue and beat, feeling and thought: unadorned, decorous, ordinary -- a birthday party -- and fantastic. That takes place at quiet stainless-steel space- age Manhattan biotechs, and in a oak-panelled apartment, or on safe streets. But with a dead-grey goat's severed soup head in the quick middle of it.
