Best movie of this year hands down!

Fresh and Exciting

Excellent but underrated film

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

The first scene of this movie tells us what this movie is going to mean, and that meaning is nothing or rather I should say "no reason". With this in mind were off to our journey of following a killer tire. Yes, you read that right we are following a seemingly sentient tire that goes on a murder rampage starting from small animals to a small community of people. I am not going to go in anymore detail in the movie and start to tell you why I enjoy this movie. I like the way it was shot, for a whole lot of nothing the film actually looks good, the desert atmosphere adds to this film. I feel like if it was shot somewhere else it wouldn't be as good. The cinematography is very smooth, there are no quick cuts, edits or jerky camera movement everything seems to flow very fluidly despite the odd nature of the film. The characters are self aware of the movie, like they aren't characters in it but are watching the events happen from a distance. Half way through this movie your'e probably going to ask yourself "why am I watching this movie", and maybe that's the point (despite the opening saying otherwise) Why do we watch movies? and why do we enjoy them? what makes a movie good or bad? or is it all subjective to the viewer. That is just my interpretation of the movies message, or at the very least the question I asked myself throughout this movie. That being said, it's not for everyone, it's slow, it's odd, and to most meaningless. But if you're in the mood for something experimental, but not off in the deep end check it out.

A sheriff tells a group audience out in the desert that many big movies have important elements with no reason. The group is given binoculars. A rubber tire rolls by itself. It has the power to explode things. It explodes small animals and people as well. It is taken with a beautiful woman and follows her to an isolated motel.This is a quirky concept. Other than the concept, there isn't anything that compelling. Mr. Bean may not say much but the character is hilarious. This tire has no dialog. It tries to be funny but there are no actually laughs. This has the weird concept and breaking down the 4th wall. There isn't much else. Filmmaker Quentin Dupieux is probably better off making a short with this idea and move on with another idea for the full length feature.

Robert was fantastic, the nuance, the soundtrack, the director went the extra mile and got a far from flat performance finding inner depths.You could get stretch this review with a lot of puns - not necessarily bad, even the poster can't resist. If you can't handle that or you can't think about the media you consume lightly, sideways, then this is not for you.If you did enjoy it then seek out Man Bites Dog or anything in the 50p section of the video shop on Fratton Road, Portsmouth in 1992 probably with Rutger Hauer.( Clearly international time travel may be required; if you've prepared for the Zombie Apocalypse then this really is your next area requiring planning).

An unusual story of a rubber tyre that uses telekinetic powers to kill. The movie is based around the notion of things being meaningless. Why would a tyre have consciousness? No reason. Why would it kill? No reason. It is absurdist horror at it's best. The story itself is almost irrelevant, what makes the movie is the score (wonderfully provided by mr oizo) and the camera work. It is shot so beautifully that you will forget how ridiculous the premise of the movie is. Alternatively if you're not into hidden meanings and what not, rubber still serves as a deliciously odd screwball b-movie. Surely not a film for everybody and perhaps not one I would often re-watch... but one you should most definitely take the time to see.
