Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

boblipton Norman McLaren offers one of his abstract pieces of animation, working in collaboration with Evelyn Lambart with some some electronic music by Maurice Blackburn. It consists of a series of vertical lines which wander from the right to the left and back again, growing more numerous as they pass over each other over a monochrome background which changes color.They suggest the strings of a musical instrument, if they suggest anything... or perhaps they suggest nothing. It's a simple contemplative abstract, a purely experimental movie, hypnotic and meditative in its evolutions. For the two minutes that it lasts, it's fascinating.... and then it's gone.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Lines: Vertical" is the counterpart to Norman McLaren's "Lines: Horizontal" and again he worked together with BAFTA Award nominee Evelyn Lambart. So yeah what is there to say. You will see white vertical lines in here from start to finish, for 6 minutes. The background changes in color on a couple occasions and you hear a soothing tune. this film is certainly not for everybody and I am afraid that this does also include myself. I found it a fairly boring watch, but if you like experimental films, then you may very well enjoy this one. I have seen several way worse experimental movies. Nonetheless overall I did not find this a satisfying watch and give it a thumbs down. Not recommended.
