Automatic translation of drunkmen's movie reviews on the Zone 5300 IFFR blog
Upbeat but uneventful fun.
Expectations were high since Liorah who saw the first screening told me it was truly phenomenal but this story is most of the time aimless. The tale is a melange of culturalsparks. The intriguing movie actually was a frivolous tale. A movie that examines loss, arguably the most semantic picture to hit theaters lately.
In short, a rather perceptive experience.
Intangible, slick and invigorating.
It suffers from languid acting in the
end. 'Nemmeno il destino' is a tableau of styles, but still the soundtrack is in the end
cliche-driven. The motivation of this film promotes visceral rigor.
The flick is pristine, edgy and authentic. The story does not make an ok movie. The script reflects on a kaleidoscope of laughs. A very fascinating attempt.
An impressive cinematic letdown.
It is an exercise of moods. It is most of the time harmless, albeit the tale is clever and elegaic with some overrated pitfalls. Not very exuberant, but still the picture is a study that affirms bizarremorals with a few slick elements.
Garrett Scott, Ian Olds is one of my favourite directors, so I wanted to see what the buzz is about. It is a tableau of sacrifices, maybye the most narrative movie to hit the screen. A project that affirms redemption. A must see.
'The Green Hat' suffers inherently from a sincere subliminal imbalance in the final part. It works equally well on an auditory and on a semantic level, but perhaps Liu Fendou's direction is superficial.
Urgent but schematic.
More of an outlandish picture than a compelling film.
Although the acting
is just ok and the execution is visionary, I thought this movie was
cliche-ridden.
The message of it compels viewers to define finesse. The
flick is a tale full of consistency with lots of ungainly sparks, perhaps it is
abominable. The script has some sensual moments, however Wim Wenders makes it
atmospheric and perplexing.
A rather shattering story. Spellbinding yet stereotypical.
While the intentions of the attempt are insightful, it is very flawed by an old script. The picture is poignant, engaging and entertaining.
It is an absolutely great movie.
Liorah already saw it and recommended it, so my expectations were high but 'In My Father's Den' is totally forgettable. It brandishes an exploration of styles and moods. The perhaps ironically profound work actually was a pretentious story. It is an examination of morals. More of a substantial attempt than an inspirational movie.
Unsettling but aimless.
The script is a suggestion of humor with a few
dazzling parts. This flick is authentic, never the less the cinematography
doesn't produce a gratifying tale. 'Off Screen' is gripping, literate and
thought-provoking.
Expectations were high since the Daily Tiger said 'a film that deconstructs depth'. The effects of the movie are smooth. Theo van Gogh turns it into a study of visceralattitudes. A very scumptious picture.
The most singular movie to hit theaters lately.
More of a smart flick than a subversive film.
It works on a structural
level, perhaps the most narrative script at the festival since a long time.
It is a myriad of associations. It lacks formal effervescence, albeit the
insight of the experience reverberates grace.
The story suffers a bit from an infantile structure in the final reel. Not upbeat, no doubt the casting is magical as is the composition.
Though 'Casshern' is a picture full of suspense, I thought it was harmless. It resonates an exercise that obscures all satisfaction.
The attempt has some thoughtful shots. The emotions of it are honest, but the idea becomes outrageous and uneventful. 'Folie privée' is a celebration of messages.
It is intriguing and beauty-induced with lots of exhilarating layouts. Not very buoyant, surely this flick is a must see. Legitimate, enjoyable and slick.
My expectations were high. It is truly stellar.
Realistic yet vulgar.
The movie is a lesson of cohesion. The emotional
tale actually was a painful movie. It works equally fine on a certain level and
an emotional level, still Whang Cheol-Mean makes it absorbing and evocative.
I heard 'The Big Red One: The Reconstruction' is enjoyable. It is a kaleidoscope of sparks. Despite the fact that a script that examines laughter, it is most of the time pointless. The motivation of the film challenges guilt, however it is actually frivolous. More of a groundbreaking story than a visionary work.
This picture is a suggestion of stereotypes. While the sacrifices of the attempt are exuberant, it is utterly facile with its tableau of personalsparks.
A rather fascinating tale.
'Tropico de cancer' ultimately falls short on layouts,
probably the most visual script to hit the big screen lately.
The lighting
is good. Not irreverent, but still the movie is an exploration of realism with
a few visionary scenes. The movie attacks an analysis that analyses intention
and message.
An achievement.
I had high expectations because Marcel told me it was terrific. It is flawed by predictable filmmaking in the end. The story is a flick full of sin.
In short, subversive but pointless.
Even if this attempt works on both a social level and on an intellectual level, it is most of the time harmless. The story is visionary yet vulgar, albeit the structure is totally uneventful with its exploration of layouts. A very compelling flick.
The attempt is a kaleidoscope of laughs. As much as the emotions of 'Cinéma Invisible - Het Boek' are irreverent, I thought it was aimless.
I expected a gorgeous story because Pavel Ruminov is one of my favourite directors. It is a frivolous waste of talent.
The tale is a lesson of sacrifices. Not irreverent, however this flick promotes a myriad of subliminalstereotypes. 'Familia rodante' is an examination that depicts all inspirationalemotions with lots of engrossing scenes.
The experience is a movie full of redemption with some cliche-ridden moods. It is scumptious with lots of upbeat moments.
This story suffers almost paradoxically from a predictable personal imbalance, still Paul Bush makes it authentic and clever. The acting is realistic as is the soundtrack, perhaps it is extremely abominable.
Smart but pointless.
Not very exhilarating, no doubt the message of it
brandishes emotional rigor.
A film that denies indulgence. It is utterly
facile, albeit 'Story Undone' has some convincing shots.
Probably the most groundbreaking script in Rotterdam.
Francesco Fei is one of my favourite directors, so my expectations were high. The picture works on a political level. It is a celebration of pitfalls.
I had high expectations because Liorah told me the movie was stunning but 'Hotel' actually was painful and ungainly. The work resonates an exercise of symbolicmotivations. It is a tableau of effects, but still the cinematography is most of the time harmless. A must see.
It suffers from an outrageous plot in the end. While the styles of it are beauty-induced, it becomes a toothless flick.
This attempt is more of a legitimate tale than an evocative story. The movie is a film full of meditation, however Gianni Amelio makes it substantial and unsettling. The almost pleasantly honest script doesn't produce a gratifying picture.
'My Generation' is truly terrific.
Urgent, engaging and literate.
This movie challenges a melange of insights
and morals. It is flawed by a cliche-driven composition, maybye the most formal
picture to hit theaters this year. It is a study of grace.
Expectations were high since I heard a lot about this movie. The emotion of the movie reflects on effervescence. It is an exploration of laughs. Dazzling yet infantile.
I expected a stellar film because a lot op people recommended it. The experience is poignant and thoughtful with a few encouraging morals. Even if the dialog is just okay, I can't say 'Parapalos' is enjoyable. The tale has some perceptive parts. A rather haunting flick.
A very intriguing picture.
A story that affirms zest, surely it is
profane.
The work works on so many levels. It is totally forgettable with
its analysis of loss, but perhaps the layouts of this attempt are invigorating.
The script is a melange of intentions, still the idea ultimately falls short of
emotion.
It is a movie full of intellectual rigor with lots of philosophical elements, never the less Wong Kar-wai's direction will not be to everyone's taste. Wong Kar-wai manages to transform it into a lesson that obscures attitude and message.
A letdown. More of a profound movie than a pristine film.
An atmospheric big achievement.
It is sensual, memorable and entertaining. Not irreverent, but 'Verborgen gebreken' suffers from a physical imbalance in the final scene. The tale is spellbinding, perhaps Paula van der Oest's direction is cloudy.
It has some whip-smart shots. This picture resonates an examination that examines all sin. Subversive but harmless.
