Such a frustrating disappointment
hyped garbage
The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
such a shame. the shots were pretty good and the first half was so interesting. second half was not as good. I thought this could be a psychological horror movie classic like funny games but it just lost its focus. figured out the guy was insane halfway the movie so I just finished it to see if I was right or wrong.I was right.I thought this movie was going to be disturbing and about class differences but it just tried to be artsy and creepy and forgot to make sense. I loved directing and cinematography but hated scenario. there isn't much conversation so it definitely builds up the tension. the movie didn't have much effect on me but I think aik karapetian is a good director and now on my watch list.
Well I was in for a quite a surprise. I saw this film at the Stockfish European film festival in Reykjavik. I had previously watched the trailer and I liked what i saw but like with so many films from the genre I was pretty confident it would fail to live up to it's standards. I was bit surprised by the low rating here (given, only 105 votes when this is written). Well the films narrative plot is not the most regular I have seen but the mood is fantastic. Rather than being dialogue driven it's action driven with a great cinematography combined with a suspenseful score, blurry dream sequences and some Violence with a capital V. I wasn't totally sure what actually took place in the movie but I like it that way and I'm pretty sure there is a deeper meaning behind all of this. This movie probably isn't for everyone and I must say the movie leaves behind more questions than answers. For me it was the feel of the movie. A blend of Trier, Kubrick, Lynch Laugier, not a bad cocktail. Well my first review, hope it helps.
