Dorathen Better Late Then Never
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
twentyfourframespersecon Why does everyone feel compelled to review something as the best or worst thing ever. Really? How is that even remotely useful to the reader? It's not a review -that's a rant. For those of you who don't get it, there's a little something called experimental filmmaking. It's been around for about a century, and not designed with mainstream Hollywood consumers in mind. They're art house films, and if you walk blindly into an art house theater, please don't whine because you didn't get a watered down derivative literal narrative. Artists like Darren Aronofsky and David Lynch have been at this craft for quite some time, and they know literal narrative is not hard to pull off. Symbolism, surrealism, multiple layers of perspective, that's a considerable challenge. If it's not for you, it's not for you, but it's tiring to see a convenient dismissal when someone doesn't connect with a piece. Having said that, I don't think this was Aronofsky's best effort. I thought the main concepts and core storyline were fantastic, but felt would have been best realized as a short film and condensed to 40-50 minutes. The themes were repeated to the point of being redundant, and though the point was made, it could have been made more efficiently. I don't see Aronofsky ever eclipsing "Requiem," but this was a solid effort.
Jadamwood This movie is truly an enigma and only steps it's game up in the third act. I loved it. Very original and quite disturbing. Best not to watch a trailer and go in blind. Heavy sense of uncomfortavility and it's really well done. I enjoyed the acting of the two main characters. The slow burn comes to a close fast in the last 30 mins. If you can, wait until the last 30 mins to make any final judgements.
virkkps What a waste of talent. The story, if it can be called one, is a series of uncoordinated and unconnected events which have been poorly put together.
MajidMsa I Respect Jennifer Lawrence And Javier Bardem But IN This One Truly One Of The Most Waste Time And Boring Movie I Have Ever Seen In A Few Years Do Not Waste Your Time On It . And About The Ending She Said To Him Take It How On Earth She Know About The Jewel I Mean She Was Scared
