Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Freaktana A Major Disappointment

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Muta" is a co-production between Italy and Argentina from 2011, so this one had its 5th anniversary last year. The director here is multiple-award-winning filmmaker Lucrecia Martel from Argentina and she is also one of those in charge of turning the poem this is based on into a screenplay. It runs for 6.5 minutes only and there is no written or spoken dialogue in here, so you won't need subtitles whatsoever. I read people say that this was a modern film noir, but I could not agree less. To me, it had a very surreal, pretty experimental style to it. It is a fairly stylish, maybe even stylized film certainly, but sadly the story aspect comes way too short for me personally, which should explain the title of my review to you. And the way the characters were written, there's also no chance for strong performances and you cannot blame the actors at all for that. Overall, I must say the film did almost nothing for me and I did not find it memorable whatsoever. It's a thumbs-down. Don't watch.

ReganRebecca In Spanish "muta" means mutate, which is an appropriate title for this wonderful short from director Lucrecia Martel. Made as part of Miu Miu's Women's Tales series, in which women directors are given carte blanche to direct a short as long as it features actors in Miu Miu clothing, Muta is one of the more successful entries into this anthology.Onboard an abandoned luxury cruise 8 women crawl out of a very narrow cabin, their movements creepy and insect like. Martel never shows us their faces but it doesn't matter. They communicate with flutters of their over-exaggerated eyelashes, which we only see in profile, and in fluttering of their fingers and hands. The women are strange and otherwordly and this is only enhanced by the superb audio which works to make the women as sinister as possible. Short, interesting and enjoyable, Muta is worth the six minutes it takes up of your time.
