Vania Viola Wu This movie is so underrated, it is a really really brilliant movie! It's really sad that not a lot of people know this movie, I myself just watched it a week ago. It's super confusing, the plot is unbelievable, I just love it! All the actors did a really good job, I really couldn't understand what was going on in this movie, I was trying to figure it out but everything didn't make any sense to me, so I couldn't find an answer. Even after the last scene, I was still trying to understand the movie.And I couldn't. And this is why I said this movie is brilliant, you have to watch it twice or pay a really good attention during the movie to understand it completely. I googled the movie plot after I watched it because TBH I was still confused. And when I found out, I was so surprised and I just thought this movie is really a masterpiece.

Python Hyena Stay (2005): Dir: Marc Forster / Cast: Ewan McGregor, Ryan Gosling, Naomi Watts, Bob Hoskins, Janeane Garofalo: Captivating thriller about consciousness and the value of life. Ewan McGregor stars as a therapist visited by a young patient who threatens suicide in three days. It opens with a car accident then the client makes predictions that seemingly come true. Although clever it is sometimes confusing and unsatisfactory in its conclusion. Director Marc Forster uses camera angles to symbolize emotional collapse. Forster previously made the acclaim Monster's Ball, and here tackles a different sub genre. McGregor fairs well as a therapist struggling to figure out what is real and what is not. Ryan Gosling plays the disturbed patient who is involved in the car accident and threatens suicide. McGregor spends much of the film learning about who he is but the answers aren't always clear. Naomi Watts plays McGregor's girlfriend and former patient who attempted suicide in the past and makes an attempt to help McGregor with this dilemma. Bob Hoskins is featured as Gosling's apparent father although he claims that his father is dead. Janeane Garofalo plays a psychiatrist in a nice turn from her usual comic roles. Strikingly made thriller about emotional duress that is sometimes a tad confusing however, its innovative filmmaking style gives good reason to stay. Score: 8 / 10

Arcaeus I just watched Stay again and had to change my rating from a 7 to a 10. I had seen Stay many years ago and it had always stuck with me. Probably because after watching it again I know why. Stay presents itself as a masterpiece of art and it does not disappoint. With so much happening it's a little hard to keep up. What it does though is draw you in. A quote from the movie about art states, 'We are drawn to the brightest parts.' After closely analyzing each scene I noticed that there are bright colours all around, subtly drawing us into the movie.Stay is a deep, calculating movie that hits you hard and makes you question your sanity and whether or not the world around us is just an illusion. The film references abstract artists, Shakespeare, and Psychology all throughout which fits well with the abstract camera angles, acting, and thought processes it evokes while watching. With the camera looking at characters on the other side of glass and also reflecting characters in mirrors and other objects, it sends the subconscious mind thinking about whether we are watching the real world like that through our own eyes. With allusions to previous scenes you won't realise at first, double entendres, artistic scenery, camera angles, and subconscious messages, Stay is a visual masterpiece unlike any other film and no other film will ever come close. If you haven't seen it already, watch it.

begob Ticking clock drama about saving someone from suicide, and it goes all twirly whirly with perceptions of reality.Is it a slight story, or profound? I dunno. Worth another watch, but I'm sure I won't.The professional critics give it high praise for the story telling through editing, and I did get a few aaah moments, but I was crying out for Naomi Watts to become the centre of the story. Ewan Magregor to me is just not convincing, and Ryan Gosling I can take or leave.There I go - focusing on the actors. Not a good sign.The Shakespeare was good, and I thought I was getting into it: "O God, I could be bounded in a nut shell and count myself a king of infinite space, were it not that I have bad dreams." Still not happening. I did let it sit for a day, but couldn't appreciate the quality. Maybe I'm being thick, so I'll generosify the rating to 6.
