Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated

Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.

Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

eryui Now this is a really dramatic movie.It tells the story of two people, very different, a man becomes numb, a woman deeper and more sensitive. Fighting against their dramatic odds, events, they learn and became a support each other, stand up and slowly find their way to make things work within their rust and broken bones bodies and life.The actors are good, the story slow pacing, extremely dramatic that touches difficult issues, but never boring and very well told, interesting and gripping. Hard and dry as it is used by the director Jacques Audiard.A film by the harsh colors with positive implications.8/10

Jim Gilligan Rarely does a film use its source material (in this case, two powerfully devastating short stories by Craig Davidson) and transform it into something new and equally formidable. That, however, is precisely what Jacques Audiard has done with "Rust and Bone," a moving and raw look at how two rather ordinary people respond to extraordinary circumstances. Stephanie, a whale trainer played by the brilliant Marion Cotillard, must face life as a double amputee after a freak accident. Alain—played by the painfully handsome Matthias Schoenaerts—is a single father who must juggle his need to support his son while eking out a living for himself as a security guard. Stephanie's and Alain's lives intersect in unexpected but perfectly plausible ways, and their story generates equal parts despair and inspiration. This is an emotionally difficult but ultimately life- affirming film. And I sincerely hope that it helps catapult Schoenaerts to fame in the US. He embodies an atypical combination of ruggedness and heartfelt emotion rarely seen on film.

craterofstink I really enjoyed Rust & Bone. Not only do we get to see Marion Cotillard's voluminous boobs, we also get a quick flash of her vagina. As for the movie itself, it's good and different. Marion plays an whale trainer at a Sea World in the south of France and meets up with a bouncer at a local nightclub. The bouncer is a bit of a drifter/tough guy who moved to town with his young boy in order to live with his sister. The two are drawn to one another through tragedy and Marion, who was always independent, learns she must rely on someone. I'm really excited for the Robocop remake. I have all faith that it'll be dumb as hell and stupidly entertaining.

Heather I just cannot get this film out of my head. It touched me so deeply and I'm still trying to figure out why. It seems to me that it's a film which is almost impossible to define. I feel unable to do it any justice because it is so much more than the sum of its parts( but don't misunderstand me, its parts are v good) It is so subtle and complex that individual viewers will take very different things from it. Whatever else it may be though, it was in my view, one of the most convincing and touching love stories I've ever seen on screen. Top notch performances. Not an easy watch by any means, but so rewarding. What I admire most is the absolute refusal to resort to sentimentality. We feel what we feel, without manipulation. The minute it finished I wanted to watch it all over again and having done so I feel I am only just getting to grips with the many levels the film works on and its message/s. Even after several viewings certain aspects of it still puzzle me, but in a good way. Highly intelligent film making.
