Black holes inside out (by laurent-milot) |
A rock on the head... I felt as if I was hit that way watching this new opus from Claire Denis at its TIFF world premiere. People walking out, scarce applause, you know you watched something else, something reminding you that cinema really is an incredible medium, acting is more than reading texts and showing pretty faces, and writing is an art on its own. Without spoiling the movie, just know that it's not what you expect, likely not what you want to see or I seriously question your sanity , and that the U.F.O may be a metaphor for the movie itself and/or the viewer, absorbed as they <more> |
Stunning, provocative masterpiece (by knnylynne) |
High Life is raw, visceral, gripping and indelible. My advice is to immediately discard any and all chrome-slicked sci-fi expectations you may have, and strap in tight. Prepare for a crazy ride into deep outer space with a motley crew of death-row/lifer convicts as they endure personal struggles with autonomy, fortitude, redemption, morality, primal needs and humanity in the face of growing despair hopelessness and solitude. This is not a film for the easily triggered, nor for those who can't abide elliptical storytelling-you will not be spoon-fed. It almost certainly will have you <more> |
The point is that there is no point (by danielnunez-81518) |
I had to sit with this one for a few days after watching, and I just have to say that when a movie refuses to leave your mind it did something right, that's all you can really hope for when watching a movie. I'm a big fan of sci fi and outer space movies especially when it is blended with Drama. Ironically, if you over analyze this you'll pick up on little nitpicks that are beyond the scope of what you should really focus on which is that there is no point. Humans are trash and we're all headed towards an impending doom. Not every movie needs to entertain you albeit this is <more> |
Kinetic and Primal Power (by Raven-1969) |
A black hole is the destination for a group of young prisoners who, as they come to realize, are not coming back. Or so it seems. Kept on a leash and in suspended animation, fed a steady diet of lies, and treated as experiments and not as human beings, the young perps find their own often brutal ways of rebellion. Yet for Monte, who has a baby daughter to care for, things are more complicated. The responsibility is greater than anything, even than the looming black hole."It is important to show" said Claire Denis in Toronto "how people are feeling, even when they are <more> |
A great Piece Of Art (by atractiveeyes) |
This movie is really weird and crazy and definitely not everyone's cup of tea, you either love it or hate it there's no in between, and I did love it. It's raw and gripping, you stay all the time involved in it questioning yourself specially at the ending, it doesn't spoon-feed you. Robert Pattinson is excellent in it, the script is brilliant and daring, the cinematography and directing are great.... All in all it's really an artistic beautiful movie and one of Pattinson's best movies to me . Highly recommended. |
High Life is one of the best films of the year! So far! (by dwillsey) |
High Life is a mindblowingly fantastic film, that challenges us with the big questions about life and humanity. There's so much to talk about with this film. |
"High Life" is raw, authentic, darkly haunting, full of mystery, and intense performances (by svhot) |
"High Life" is one of those rare movies that has many positive elements - good story and screenplay, great and intense performances, visually appealing, and brilliant direction.Robert Pattinson and Juliette Binoche have given excellent, memorable performances in their respective roles. Claire Denis is an intelligent director who knows how to infuse the correct blend of mystery in a movie. This movie will and should get a huge cult following in the very near future. I highly recommend this movie to all viewers. |
Patience pays off (by mjjusa-1) |
A maddening, unpleasant, difficult movie to watch for most of its length. Upsetting subject matter, utter nihilism, echoes of the ongoing life/woman's choice debate, an unfathomable plot that slowly, oh, so, slowly plays out. Who are these people? Where are they? Why are they, wherever they are? Why, after the first hour, was I still there?It never really makes sense. The characters never become less than repugnant. But, if you stay to the end, and I'd urge you to stay to the end, something important and moving makes its way out of the interesting but unpleasant black hole that <more> |
A space oddysey of a very different kind... Binoche and Pattison shine (by paul-allaer) |
"High Life" brings the story of a group of 9 outcasts, traveling towards the nearest black hole. As the movie opens, a guy is doing a space walk to repair the space ship. He is also in communication with a baby girl, presumably his daughter, who becomes restless. He comes back insides the space ship and takes care of her. No sign of the mother, or anyone else for that matter, that is until the guy enters a room where a number of people are in hibernation--or are they dead? At this point we are 10 min. into the movie but to tell you more of the plot would spoil your viewing <more> |
