The greatest movie ever made..!

It is a performances centric movie

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

There is a story here but it is one that we are never allowed to be party to and indeed although the title is a line in the film, it could just as easily be a gift to lazy amateur critics who think it makes them look smart to say that the film really is a case of nothing about nothing. I did want to find something in the film to take it to the next level because for the majority of the time it really delivers. We open with a man being buried in the ground by another man. The man doing the burying is panicking and nervous while the one in the ground seems calm and of the impression he is totally in control of the situation – even if the rising soil level says otherwise.As a scene it is really well done because it tells us there is a lot here we do not understand but that we really do very much wish to understand. Secondly it is incredibly tense as the soil level rises and we stay with long takes on the action. Scott Sparrow plays the man being buried and he deserves a lot of praise because he is actually in there and we see his head covered and stay covered for a very long take ; I presume he had a way to breathe (the take starts after his mouth is covered) but even still it is not an easy thing to do and still deliver a performance of calm, controlled peace with has its own menace in the context.Nel is good too but in a different way and I enjoyed the panic changing as he drove away, with the song being an important and effective one. The ending though does nothing. It comes at the end of a lot of build-up and had work and it ultimately did feel wasted for such an open and ultimately meaningless conclusion. The film is worth seeing for the burial scene and the performances of the two men, but the aspects that work really well deserve the overall film to be about more than just these aspects and unfortunately this is not the case.
