Automatic translation of drunkmen's movie reviews on the Zone 5300 IFFR blog
The film works on so many levels. Despite the fact that it is slightly flawed by a painful plot, it does not make an entertaining tale. Despite the fact that 'Palindromes' is a script full of effervescence with a few magical emotions, I didn't find this attempt invigorating.
More of a transparent flick than an intriguing project.
The movie is
pristine with some entertaining scenes. The movie is groundbreaking yet
frivolous, maybye the most intellectual picture to hit the screen this year. It
lacks social cohesion in the end, but perhaps the effects of it are enjoyable.
A tale that shows humor, but perhaps Aleksandar Manic's direction is stereotypical.
A very perplexing script. A slam-dunk.
The story is most of the time pointless. It is a kaleidoscope of moods, but still it is schematic.
I heard a lot about this movie, so I wanted to see the film. 'Adolphe' ultimately falls short of satisfaction. As much as the movie is a study of sacrifices, I thought it was harmless.
Expectations were high since it is in the top 10 for the audience award. It works on both an erotic level and a visceral level. This attempt challenges an examination of gut rigor. A rather poignant flick.
A pretentious, virtually engrossing, irreverent drag.
Compelling but aimless.
'Occupation: Dreamland' is an exploration of guilt, surely
Garrett Scott, Ian Olds manages to transform it into a suggestion that affirms
pristinemorals.
The intention of it is endowed with realism. The flick is
remarkable and magical with lots of flawed laughs.
The movie has some ambitious moments. Not very slick, but perhaps the idea is rather pleasant and the casting is pretty ok. The story is an experience full of zest.
More of an outlandish tale than a convincing picture.
'Kammerflimmern' is
scumptious, exuberant and haunting. The insightful script is utterly cloudy.
Despite the fact that a film that denies finesse, it is most of the time
pointless. It works on many different levels, perhaps the plot doesn't produce
an amusing attempt.
The most caustic flick in Rotterdam since a long time.
This tale is a study of associations. Not smooth, surely it has some absorbing shots. It is totally disjointed with its lesson of sparks, but the attitudes of the movie are beauty-induced. A very profound movie.
I heard a lot of good things about it. Upbeat but painful fun.
A must see.
Miyazaki Hayao's direction will not be to everyone's taste.
The story fails to deliver. It is a kaleidoscope of emotions.
I heard the work is more of a honest picture than a smart film, so my expectations were high. It is an analysis of structurallaughs. 'In My Father's Den' brandishes a tableau of subliminalsparks, probably the most psychological script to hit theaters lately.
The story is truly stunning.
A cinematic letdown.
While the insight of this tale emanates depth, I can't say it is unsettling or literate. The movie becomes a forced flick.
It is transparent. 'Calvaire' works more on a personal than on a political level, however it is rather overrated. The structure is emotional as is the idea. Intriguing yet cliche-ridden.
Evocative, thought-provoking and exuberant.
A movie that raises concerns
on loss. Not very invigorating, still the attempt is an experience full of
redemption with some engaging moments. It is most of the time harmless, no
doubt it is a rather encouraging film.
The styles of the picture are enjoyable. While it has some clever elements, it suffers very from cliche-driven acting in the final scene. It is an exercise of insights, never the less Kiriya Kazuaki makes it eloquent and elegaic.
A must see. More of a subversive movie than a realistic script.
I had high expectations because I saw a thoughtful interview with Carlos Sorín. The message of the flick is endowed with consistency. 'Bombón - El Perro' is a melange of laughs. Naturalistic but aimless.
Inspirational, exhilarating and spellbinding.
It suffers somewhat
profoundly from a gripping visual imbalance, but still the lighting is utterly
flat.
A movie that shows dramatic rigor. The tale is in the end infantile
and vulgar.
The urgent story does not make an enjoyable project. The movie is a virtuoso ensemble piece, perhaps the most narrative film to hit the big screen this year.
I had high expectations because a lot op people recommended it but it is most of the time pointless. The attempt is a suggestion of laughter. It doesn't produce a nice picture, albeit the flick reverberates a tableau of motivations and sparks. 'The Big Red One: The Reconstruction' is visionary and fascinating. Philosophical, authentic and buoyant.
A very substantial script.
It works equally fine on a certain and an
auditory level. Though the script is reasonably cool and the plot is
legitimate, I found some moments very entertaining. Even if a tale that
deconstructs effervescence, it falls short of effect in the end.
The festival paper called it a groundbreaking movie. The layouts of this work are sensual. It is a movie full of grace with lots of irreverent emotions.
More of a perceptive story than a pristine film. Memorable yet ungainly.
The mood of the tale reflects on catharsis. Not slick, but perhaps the picture has some ambitious shots.
It is a cloudy doodle.
In short, a beauty-induced must see.
It resonates a myriad of layouts. This work is bizarre, enjoyable and engaging.
It ranks high in the contest for the audience award. It suffers very from cliche-ridden filmmaking in the end. The flick is a movie full of depth, no doubt the soundtrack is totally overwrought with its celebration of pitfalls. The movie has some spellbinding shots. A very visionary movie.
Slick but schlocky junk.
The ironically engrossing story is most of the time aimless. Not very exhilarating, however 'Late Bloomer' is a kaleidoscope of laughs.
A virtuoso ensemble piece.
The picture is an exploration of moods, maybye
the most psychological experience to hit the big screen since a long time.
The cinematography is dazzling as is the dialog. It has some caustic shots,
surely Paul Bush's direction is sentimental.
It is outlandish and legitimate. The film actually was an ungainly tale. Although 'Story Undone' is distinctive, intangible and realistic, I can't say it is slick or edgy.
What a vulgar waste of time.
The motivations of this attempt are irreverent. A flick that reiterates humor. More of a convincing script than a scumptious picture.
A rather substantial movie.
The movie reflects on a tableau of
dramaticlayouts. While the intention of it brandishes guilt, it falls short of
meditation. It works better on a cultural level than on a visual level, perhaps
it is abominable.
It is most of the time pointless, still the work lacks suspense in the final elements. This tale is an examination of indulgence with a few forgettable scenes, albeit the composition does not result in an okay story.
'Le chiavi di casa' is a film full of effervescence with some unsettling pitfalls. The groundbreaking movie is utterly schematic. Profound yet predictable.
Expectations were high since a lot op people recommended it but the picture becomes flat. The messages of this script are gripping. It is a myriad of emotions, maybye the most psychological movie at the festival. Though it is an exploration of morals, I thought it was stereotypical.
A slam-dunk.
Subversive, enjoyable and smooth.
Not entertaining, never the less the
attempt has some poignant moments.
A flick that depicts satisfaction. Even
if 'So Cute' is singular, it actually was a painful experience. The idea is
reasonably decent.
A very thoughtful script.
The tale is more of a sensual film than an
encouraging movie. The style of the attempt compels the audience to examine
sin, but perhaps Ana Poliak's direction will not be to everyone's taste.
I saw a perceptive interview with Kim Ki-Duk, so I wanted to see what it is about. 'Samaritan Girl' is flawed by frivolous dialog. This story is endowed with an exercise of intellectualeffects. Elegaic but toothless.
Absorbing, memorable and ambitious. A must see.
The insights of 'Cool!' are engaging. It works on many levels, albeit it is a bit old.
A rather fascinating picture.
Leonard Retel Helmrich manages to turn it into
something smart.
The flick is a kaleidoscope of laughs and sacrifices. It
falls short of motivation, however the work is a melange of sparks. The script
has some magical parts.
It is a movie full of suspense with lots of impressive moments, arguably the most dramatic film in Rotterdam lately. 'Verborgen gebreken' is a study of laughs, but still the casting is most of the time harmless.
Pristine yet pointless.
A flick that affirms zest. Not very invigorating,
surely the script is urgent and the acting is just brilliant. The spellbinding
movie doesn't produce an okay tale.
