Truly Dreadful Film
the audience applauded
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
Last year best movie. Don't listen consumer low iq population and their 1 star reviews. They simply don't get it and they probably never will.
I found this film to be severely lacking in real substance. All very superficial and even pathetic to an extent.
Ambitious and Frustrating. Lyrical and wrongheaded. Exciting and exasperating. All of those contradictory phrases apply to Director Andrea Arnold's (the terrific FISH TANK) coming of age story which plays out largely plotlessly for 2 hours and 40 minutes in the American heartland as we follow an 18 year old drifter. One cannot fault Arnold for her vision and desire to show something so intimate over such a large scale, even if it never fully forms. The instinct is to fault the 163 minute length. But, this is the rare case where simply cutting it wouldn't likely have helped. Rather, the movies many astonishing moments (some only a few seconds long) wouldn't have worked without the largeness of the project. After seeing it, it's quite clear why the movie has been so divisive when it has played at places like Cannes and now with critics. It's a work that demands to be seen, even if virtually everybody's take on it will likely be different. And, is that such a bad thing with so many rote movies being made?
Interesting, but great movie! I came away from it confused, but eventually came to the conclusion that It was a great movie!
