What a waste of my time!!!
... View MoreVery well executed
... View MoreA bit overrated, but still an amazing film
... View MoreThe film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.
... View MoreI get what it wants to talk about: the fear of finding out the person you love most is not the person you thought he or she was. The fear of finding out you are by yourself after all. It is a worthy subject to make a movie about, so if you are interested in exploring this idea, there is a great movie called Tourist that you can watch instead of this movie.I'm very forgiving of artsy movies because I assume the directors must know more about the art than I do, and I'm a snob so I suck up to everything artsy. But there is a limit to being indulgent. What unfolds in this movie is hardly emphasizable. Since there is a much better movie that talks about the mangled idea of The Loneliest Planet much better, I recommend others to avoid being sucked by misleading accolade and seek worthier entertainment.
... View MoreI just wasted 2 hours of my life on a movie about nothing. I am a bit angry after seeing this and I have never wanted to fall asleep in a movie but this time I truly did.I would love to know why showing a girl peeing in the night or a man removing a tampon from a girls hoohah is somehow artistic or informative? You could have taken 1 point and shoot photo of this movie and it would tell you everything you needed to know about the story, or lack of. The Georgian dancers in the club did a better job than the writers, directors and producers of this artsy turd.Save your time, patience and sanity and go and watch 1.57 hr of knitting.
... View MoreGael García Bernal and Hani Furstenberg are an engaged couple backpacking in Georgia along with their local guide. Along the way, they meet up with some locals and one incident causes a major rift between the couple. It is not really spoken of but yet it surely existed. The question then becomes can they heal the rift and reconnect.I understand the need for this to be understated. That's what's so important here. We don't want some drag out screaming match. But understated doesn't have to mean grindingly slow. At times, there's too many no-talking-slow-walking-long-distance-extended scenes. Those aren't all necessary. Cut those down and insert more dialog.
... View MoreWatching sloths on the discovery channel would have been more interesting. This movie had intentions of being very deep and thought provoking without the characters actually speaking, however, the characters were not able to develop themselves or their relationship enough through the muteness to keep myself interested. The movie is comprised of long shots of the characters walking through the mountains. I could walk out of the room and come back five minutes later to the same scene of walking. The director is relying on the beauty of the scenery to carry the movie for her. Instead of directing a movie and developing characters, she should have been a photographer. If they cut out about thirty minutes of walking from the movie i might of been able to see the depth the movie was trying achieve.
