Highly Overrated But Still Good
Absolutely the worst movie.
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film
With a plot about conceiving and cloning your dead beloved I expected this movie to possibly become all kinds of disturbing.Luckily, the script is dealt with the hands of a director and a cast who handled the script delicately and on a humane level.That's not to say that this movie is politically correct in any way or won't be disturbing to some, but events that many directors would play for shock-value are dealt with in a way that it feels natural and it deals with mainly grey areas, a complicated issue never have a easy solution after all.Despite being very slow I was never bored and it sustain my interest throughout, a lot to do with some excellent acting, especially Eva Green shines.It's also visually very pleasing for the eyes with some very good cinematography.
I saw WOMB movie. It is not the movie for all people. It is not a movie for weak hearted. It is not a movie for religious bigots. It is not a movie for normal people who can't think beyond mind...A 8 year old girl comes on a vacation to her grandfather's house near the beach. She makes friends with a boy of same age. When she departs, the boy promises her to come and see her off, but never comes. After ten years the girl comes back and meets the boy. In love of the boy, she has waited 10 years. In 3 days the boy dies in an accident in front of the girl. Her life's desire to be with the boy remains unfulfilled. As it is a futuristic movie, there is a possibility that she takes of cloning he boy in her womb. What happens after that forms the remainder of the story.Is it ethical? Is it moral? Should science allow cloning? The ending is something that not many (only a few) will digest. For weak heart, narrow mind, conservatives, it is hard to see the movie. So the question is are you liberal enough to at least see the movie? A different story?I liked it. Story was original and unique. Eva Green as the main protagonist is able to portray the character of 18 years to 35 years. And Matt Smith plays the role of Thomas (who dies in an accident) and Rebecca's son Tommy with great ease and energy. The writer, director Benedek Flegraul has done a wonderful job in tackling a taboo sci-fi subject on conveying the romantic emotional turmoil of characters involved into cloning. Special mention of cinematography by Péter Szatmári - it was outstanding.If you are sensitive, and liberal to the core, this movie is for you.(7 out of 10 stars)
Tense, harrowing, subtle...and just a teeny bit boring. Aesthetically it's beautiful, the acting is great on all sides, although Matt Smith is occasionally just Matt Smith. This is a wonderful idea, and you can really see what they tried to do with it. The problem is that the meat of the movie is just not there. Endless silences do build tension, and reinforce the atmosphere of secrecy, but honestly after an hour you'll find yourself distracted. Much more could have been made of this spectacular idea, especially with this cast, if only the script were just a little bit more dense and satisfying. Ultimately I was interested, but bored.
Okay, so the reason I watched this movie was for Matt Smith, I originally saw him in Doctor Who and let me just say -This was a far cry from that role.Yes, I do love Matt Smith as an actor, I am not into his looks, but he - in my opinion - was perfectly suited for the role.He has great chemistry with Eva and the ending made me cry.I really recommend watching Womb, it is unique.Not much was said throughout the film, but it was so full of emotion, nothing HAD to be said. I'm going to give it a 9, again, really brilliant film from two amazing actors and I would love to see something along the lines of this movie again.
