dlh-48964 Love this movie, definitely made me cry. Because the acting was perfect, I loved the writing of a real life love story & the way they edited to jump back & forth between memories. Very Trippy & unique if your looking for a good drama movie this is it! I felt that it demonstrated a real relationship that everyone has dealt with. It was raw & honest
Laura Alonso For starters, I was let down 15min into the movie because I found out that the main actor wasn't Keanu Reeves (ok, maybe that's just an emotional argument). Before that, I was wondering why Reeves' character wasn't as good as I expected from him and how he could've fallen into such a lame role.But continuing with the rest of the movie: Photography sucks, everything is on the two bottom thirds of the screen, almost out of frame, which is terribly irritating. They were trying to be artsy, but it wasn't well executed (unlike "Her", which's Photography is also artsy, "hipster", but successfully centers on the appreciation of "the aesthetic"). Some effects were quite fake. Most of the effects were acceptable because that can happen when you lack a large budget or strong CGI tools, however, at some moments I don't know if they were going for "magical"? but it stopped at tacky, like it was edited by a 10-year-old. I saw it as unprofessional. User "Jody Bruchon" covers my points pretty well: "A story should work BECAUSE of the camera work, not IN SPITE of it."Acting and script are unnatural as well: Transitions between ideas in the conversations are totally unnatural and fake. Half of the time Justin Long's acting was —as user "Grasswerks" states it— "garbage", and Emmy Rossum's was "as cute as her face = barely." Hard to enjoy the potential and ideas of the movie when you're cringing because of all of these things.But there are also good things this work: I like some dialogues, the concepts behind it are very well stated, quotable, which is the reason this movie is saved from being reviewed less than 5 stars. The plot and concept of it being "like a painting, without a beginning or an end" are pleasant. I don't think the ending should be taken that seriously, else you're stuck with that unsatisfying "what type of ambiguity is this?" I didn't have a problem with it and even thought the last 20 min were the most enjoyable of the whole piece.It's a good movie to watch when you have some spare time and you're doing something parallel to watching it (i.e. it doesn't need your full attention; unless you want to suffer from the photography and acting).
rushaidatkhouloud I don't get how I've never heard about this movie before now, but I'm glad I came across it.Movies introduce you to characters, they tell stories, but every once in a blue moon someone out there makes a movie that takes you on a journey, not only with the movie's characters, but with your own thoughts. Basically any human being with a heart can relate to this movie as it is more about human thoughts, feelings, experiences and actions rather than the forgettable story of two random people who fall in love in yet another rom com.Comet is anything but your usual rom com. This masterpiece is extremely witty, funny, touching and just overall brilliant. I definitely recommend it to anyone who likes a smart dialogue and an experience that will stay with you long, long after the movie is over.
Grasswerks Three stars because some of it wasn't done bad. Art, photography, lighting... But they were also pretty damn underwhelming for a film trying to be what it is.The review that says this is Annie Hall is bang on queue. This is got teenagers trying to find a deeper, arty and relatable movie. Teenagers and people who ... are impressed by pseudo art meets pseudo intellectual films.Justin Long is garbage. Emmy Rossum's acting is only as cute as her face = barely. And indeed, the undefined ending is less ambiguous and more like they didn't know what to do with the film once it was done.This movie was recommended on Netflix along with films like Upstream Color. ... Now THAT was a brilliant movie.
