Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Ortiz Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

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

nebadom This should be one of the best movies ever made in Venezuela.You can see traces of Christopher Nolan's all over the movie. In every cut, every shoot, every take. This should be considered as a worship for Memento. No doubt about it.If you liked Memento, then you will find Ellipsis quite amusing. Although it has the same "movie elements", it's a completely different the story line. And contains good fun moments with a witty humor rarely seeing in a venezuelan movie. And for the first time, there is no nudity! Way to go. There is drama, action, an impressive performance from the actors. You change your expectation every five minutes. It has an excellent story and excellent direction. And the end... you just have to see it by yourself.

tridamiani Elipsis is not the typical Latin American film. This one takes you to unexpected places. I loved the script. Very tight. I loved the transitions between scenes. Very smooth. I loved the direction. Arias-Nath does something wonderful in this film. He lets the scenes breathe with silence and lets the actors do the rest with their bodies. Great job. There's a particular rhythm in the first 2/3 of the film that makes it very romantic and relaxing. The last third of the film breaks with this and puts everybody at the edge of their seat. Great suspense. Lots of nail-biting. I highly recommend this film. And by the way, Venezuelan women are HOT.

Nelson Cordido This is one of the best Venezuelan movies of all times. The film shows the story of two successful young artists, Sebastian (Edgar Ramirez) and Gaul (Erich Wildpret). They are very good friends.Later they are falling in problems with drugs. Things are getting worse and complicated. The film has an unexpected end.In addition, everything is narrated of a fragmented way. This non-common style usually surprises the spectator with each scene.The film boasts an unforgettable opening when the police try to rescue a hostage and they kill the victim thinking that he was the thief.Overall this is a kind of bleak but challenging film

jpschapira "Elipsis" is, probably, the most important Venezuelan cinematographic production of our times. Last year, all the country watched "Secuestro Express", a very interesting movie that shows the national reality and which I called 'a calling to the new Venezuelan cinema'. Since then, movies like "El Don" and most recently "Miranda" made theaters full.With "Elipsis", however, you can tell a difference. There's something in the trailer that shows superiority; you can see a high quality level. Giving details, the writer/director Eduardo Arias-Nath has got together the best representatives of the country in terms of cameras. With a production team that has recognized art directors, cinematographers and production designers, Arias-Nath arrives to the big screen raising the production level Venezuela is used to.Not just that, but his unpredictable script and his disordered time line and plot is among the most original things I've seen in the country in a long time. With a defined stile, the story walks us through the lives of different main characters who all spin around a same situation without us being able to realize completely.To reveal little parts of what happens would be a mistake, because "Elipsis" is a movie that astonishes from various levels (mostly in the peculiar edition in which the director also worked); and you have to watch it to discover it. With just saying that Gaby Espino's (beautiful Venezuelan model) performance surprises, you'll realize what I'm trying to say.The camera work is impeccable; the shots allow us to observe not only what's going on, but in a lot of parts the background of the main element, like a door opening and closing, and it is an adding for a moment of tension in the movie. There's always something more to see around the main thing; even in frames where the camera is shooting from above, generating an effect that gets the viewer dizzy. The image also highlights because of being very tidy, unlike cameras of movies like the previously mentioned "Secuestro Express".But what undoubtedly highlights the most is the cast. Composed by national and even international talent (the Brazilian Seu Jorge is a revelation as a drug dealer), the group of actors is of the highest caliber. Movie actors like Erich Wildpret leave us breathless; while television stars like Marisa Roman leave aside the soap opera style to give another touch to their characters. The cameos are uncountable, but recognizable; there's not one unknown person in camera. In the film's parties, you can see celebrities everywhere; and even a short appearance by the known actor Jean Paul Leroux ("Secuestro Express").However, is the already international actor the one who steals the show. His name is Edgar Ramirez, he is Venezuelan and his power of conviction and capacity to transmit emotions are two enough reasons to watch the film if nothing else seems interesting. I feel like giving away details of his portrayal, but I better stay quiet.
