Absolutely the worst movie.
It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
This movie is boring and very slow paced, maybe too long for the theme. Jolie's character is extremely annoying and depressive. Nothing emotional, just a couple trying to save the marriage as they go through the mid-life crisis and each of them share a bizarre passion for spying the younger neighbors. Awkward. The setting is beautiful though, southern France is fascinating, for sure. Melanie Laurent does a nice supporting role and the atmosphere is dark and melancholic.
Such a well done movie, great acting , direction, beautiful pictures and scenes
Film Review: "By The Sea" (2015)Backed by Universal Pictures in order to distribute the artful film, acting couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie also-originally-writing-as-directing the picture creates a simple story of a married relationship between man and woman in distress from obligations of the business-accelerated world, when they arrive in a small fisher village in Southern France to undertake the not-entirely-hopeless attempt to recover their marriage.Beautifully because authentical captured cinematography by Christian Berger, known for galvanizing as visually-enhancing original cinematic pieces by director Michael Haneke in 2000s as "Caché" plus the digitally-changed black-and-white film "The White Ribbon", gives director Angelina Jolie a canvas for beat-striking moments 115-Minute-Editorial by Martin Pensa and Particia Rommel, when Pitt & Jolie live a little with the camera running, fight more and then in the strongest parts individually struggle on-screen; Jolie gracefully smoking at shade-giving hotel room window, Pitt drinking in a nearby bar under observative eyes of superb supporting actor Niels Arestrup. The cleverly-written-in arriving younger couple in the hotel room next door, portrayed by Mélanie Laurent and Melvil Poupaud, build the center point of a disfunctioning - due to not enough sex - relationship of Pitt & Jolie's alteregos Roland & Venessa, so they discover in strongest moments of the film the microcosm environment in the summer sun of year 2014, where each one for themselves discover lost beats along the way before in-hotel-suite-confrontations between two major Hollywood-indulged film stars, who play their hearts out to a rounded-up conclusion, which only cinema is able to deliver.
I loved this movie. I really did. It's not exactly what you think it's going to be and it goes where it goes in ways you don't really expect. I would call it an honest movie. I would call it a funny movie. It's something that you watch and you laugh. You laugh and laugh because it is so honest its like being exposed to someone's unconscious mind. And as such it's not exactly realistic either. It's a surreal movie, not quite to the point of being scary, but to the point of being very funny. All in all I have to say this is one of the best movies I have ever seen. And I hope to see many more.
