| A Real Treat (by socratesadamo) |
| DAMSEL is a new kind of western by the Zellner brothers, who I have been a fan of since their film KUMIKO a few years ago. This one stars Robert Pattinson, who I didn't used to like although I changed my mind after seeing GOOD TIME.This film is just as good as either of those, with its own thing going on. It's fun and different, a new kind of western for a new generation along the same lines of others such as SLOW WEST and THE BALLAD OF BUSTER SCRUGGS. Highly recommend. |

| Do you like Westerns and do you like Thrillers? (by juanmuscle) |
| And do you like love stories, and do you like anything in story? haha well you will love this then... I thought dang, not another western please, please pray not more of the same in the grossesst times of our ignominious human history...But do you like going on rides at an amusement park, well imagine waking up one day going to an amusement park , and only one ride is working, the most fetid, dungy, dank, dirty, scacry, weird, looking very boring gross ride is available, so you have to go and ride the thing cause you drove all the way here might as well, and afterwards it turns out to be <more> |
| Unusual western (by BaltimoreDancingmike) |
| I'm well into my 70's and it seemed as though half the movies of my youth were westerns. So i'm tired of the typical approach. Who has something new for me?Well, the Zellers deliver a comedic western that kept me involved the whole way through. Starting with an unusual looking character arriving in a rowboat with a crate holding a miniature palomino horse. He shows up in a town full of characters that make him seem almost normal. It turns out he's there to meet a "preacher" and to find and marry the girl of his dreams. In the film intro we see him dancing with this <more> |
| Method to the madness. (by LifeVsArt) |
| This is not your grandfather's western. For those who have seen the Zellner's "Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter" you will recognize their unique sensibility but find even that won't prepare you for the monumental turnaround taken in this strange, absurdist, feminist comedy/drama. Avoid spoilers at all cost, just go in with whatever expectation you may have and allow the Zellners to take you on a wild ride that, along the way, has a lot of slapstick but also some very substantial ideas on the relationship between the sexes - reality vs illusion, etc. The acting is topnotch. <more> |
| Do you love Marmite? (by jql_longhurst) |
| If you want John Wayne, or Unforgiven, steer clear. If you want a peppermint toothpaste of a Western, that has great casting and intelligent quirks, you'll love it. I loved this movie. |
| A tragic farce. (by buyamonkey) |
| There are very few farces made these days, so people aren't very used to the exaggerated and non-realistic elements of this genre. It's the same reason some of the Coen Brother movies don't connect with mainstream audiences. This time it's the Zellner Brothers, and they double down on the unusual genre elements by making it a farcical western. But if you're down for some off-beat cinema, what the Zellner's do here is pretty fantastic.As farces do, the story here takes some pretty drastic bait and switch turns as it sets up Pattinson's character as the traditional <more> |
| Beautiful! (by atractiveeyes) |
| I love it more than I thought I would! Not everyone's cup of tea though . It's a decent movie with a really interesting plot that flows unexpectedly, nice directing, beautiful shots in the wilderness, & great performances by Robert Pattinson and Mia Wasikowska. |
| a damsel in distress (by cdcrb) |
| Quirky comes to mind. out of the ordinary. unusual. fun. this is not a film for young people, but for movie goers old enough to enjoy good film making. the plot doesn't matter, but it's a frontier woman dealing with circumstances as they present themselves. the directors have a hard time wrapping things up, but that's all right. and it's always a pleasure to see Robert forster. he never quite "made" it. who knows why! |
