BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Haven Kaycee It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

bogdan-purcareata I was happy to see this sort of a cast to be part of this sort of a movie. I was impressed.It's a contemplative movie, such as La Grande Bellezza and the like. It doesn't have much of a plot, but the feelings expressed, the shots, the gentle suggestions make for an everlasting trip. I was calming to see how easy this movie made me at peace with myself, presenting a scenery of fear and anguish in a most profound way.It's true, it's either hate it or love it, it was certainly worth it for me. The actors' performances were brilliant, albeit minimal. I don't believe the protagonist utters more than 20 or 30 lines. But it's an atmosphere of endless flow and deep introspection. A great choice for personal reflection and meditative retreat.

sol- Shaken after surviving a massive earthquake, a Hollywood screenwriter reflects on his life and faded memories blur with the present in this ambitious anti-narrative project from Terrence Malick. The film is littered with beautiful shots from unusual camera angles and lenses and mobile camera-work that follows the protagonist around and there is a lot to like in Malick's attempts to paint his thought processes on screen. Solid as Christian Bale is in the lead though, he does not have a particularly well developed character, which makes it hard to get emotionally invested in his meanderings. Brian Dennehy provides a very strong performance as his grief-stricken father and there are hints of past tragedy in their family and possibly a failed marriage, but these all ultimately remain hints with Dennehy and Wes Bentley (as Bale's brother) receiving very limited screen time. That said, some of Bale's alone moments are his best and in the film's strongest scene, his apartment is robbed by intruders who scoff at how little cash he has, his lack of credit cards and very few valuables at home; this scene more than any other marks him realising just how empty his life is. More scenes like this may have rendered 'Knights of Cups' a quiet masterpiece. As it is, it is undeniably interesting as something offbeat and very, very different, but it is hardly the most satisfying film out there.

LENA Terrence Malick's Knight of Cups (2015) is a pretentious nonsense. Throwing attractive actors into a pretty footage and adding mysteriously suggestive narration does not make this 2-hour movie important or deserving attention. The result is boring, repetitive, and is a waste of viewer's time. How many beautiful models in designer closing can one add to a high-end Californian scenery without questioning such multiplication?Do you think that mentioning pregnancies, separations, family issues, into the protagonist's life can make him any more interesting? Or maybe you think that accentuating his observant neutrality in the midst of "love experience" or group sex highlights his Buddha-like detachment on the way to enlightenment? It is very surprising that this director dared to present this material as a film.

adonis98-743-186503 A writer indulging in all that Los Angeles and Las Vegas has to offer undertakes a search for love and self via a series of adventures with six different women. Don't get me wrong the cast of this film is truly amazing you have Christian Bale, Natalie Portman, Antonio Banderas, Cate Blanchett, Brian Dennehy, Teresa Palmer, Imogen Poots, Jason Clarke, Joel Kinnaman and many many more so please explain me how in the hell can this film be such an abomination and have a 5.7 out of 10 it was stupid, the camera was very shaky and i couldn't even see who was who and the whole plot is about a guy who changes girls like every 10 minutes and drops a Party every 30 minutes and thinks that he lives the life of someone else it's boring, it's badly edited and directed, the camera work is awful and a great cast is wasted if i was drunk and full of cocaine i would probably loved it but since i wasn't i absolutely hated it. Sorry Bale but you made a mistake throwing away the chance of being Batman but thank god for Ben Affleck!!!
