I love this movie so much

Powerful

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

I gained knowledge of Fear X from my interest in director Nicolas Winding Refn, after watching Drive, Only God Forgives, and The Neon Demon, I simply wanted to see more from Refn's filmography.Although Fear X is an interesting film, you wouldn't miss anything if you didn't watch this film.Some aspects are great, for instance the introduction intrigued you immediately from the great cinematography. However, the film falls flat on its creativity and where Fear X stands in the industry as well as Refn's filmography.In-comparison to Refn's other films, this is the simplest film I've seen from Refn, the film doesn't require an open-mind, just an interpret-able mind to fill in the blanks.I'd only recommend this film to fans of Refn as well as to people who feel as if they've seen everything.

Getting past the past bereavements has always been a tough task to do; in which for the most suffered or the ones who made the others suffer, would be the most difficult. Fear X deliberately manages to distinguish between the suffered and the latter,in one single character; In other words, exactly like the approach used in David Lynch's masterpiece "Lost Highway"!Built up slowly and reasonably to the point of inaccurately calculated and annoying ambiguity, its deliberately failure to offer a precise conclusion, fails to offer something different or newer than the above-mentioned feature film, likewise made the intentional obscurity,pointless and the movie in every word stutters before the Lost Highway's extremely exquisite words./ C+

I'm a big fan of Refn, love the Pusher Trilogy, Bleeder, Bronson etc.But this, this was bloody awful.It goes NOWHERE.We have excruciatingly drawn out scenes and I got sick to death of John Turturro's pathetic gazes. His acting was pretty dismal as well.Where is the story? Where? Fear X is about a man who tries to find out why/who killed his wife. Yet, onwards from this 'plot' the whole film falls apart, not that it was together in the first place.Fear X tries to be suspenseful but you are wanting the pace of the film to speed up and get down to some action of some sort.Like I said there are long drawn out scenes where characters just stand there and take forever to deliver their tedious lines. BORING.It isn't clever film making, it isn't thrilling, its bloody boring.I found FEar X to be completely void of anything interesting. It just crawls along delivering nothing but stupid camera work that looks like its trying to be something from The Shining.And the ending was just the icing of the cake. Absolutely abysmal.Refn and co, this truly is a stinker.

This is by far one of the greatest "understated" thrillers of all time...every scene, gesture, bit of dialog seemed to gnaw at me, draw me into a strange feeling that no matter what happens, the feeling of alienation will not go away...yes, there are one or two coincidences that seem a little too much, but if you just flow with it, you will enjoy it without having to know all the answers or have every loose end tied up for you..the photography is first rate, the atmosphere intense, and the acting is refreshingly real for a change....the movie scared me on a level I never expected....I highly recommend this move..some of the reviewers who trashed this movie probably just need to see explosions, bullets flying and chase scenes to be in suspense.....go see it!
