Watch Bodies, Rest & Motion For Free

Load of rubbish!!

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

A very good movie. Its about philosophy of life and relationships between man and woman. And of cause Bridget Fonda - she is my favorite actress. OK, my English is a bit unorthodox and poor, but I'll add more comments. The movie is about making a choice in your live. And this depends on your philosophy of life and priorities you've got. But it comes the time when love demands you to change your lifestyle. Its about people around us with absolutely different philosophy and values. And sometimes its good to listen to them. Maybe we are wrong and they are right. The movie is about the clash of two different lifestyle - and both lose in the end. It's about - what we really are looking for in this life. I saw this movie a few years ago and still have a feeling of something very kind, very sweet and very deep. Its a movie not for your mind, but for your heart.

Despite the little attention this movie has gotten, and the varied, sporadic comments and reviews, "Bodies, Rest and Motion" is the most wonderful thing I have seen in years. The four actors (Fonda, Stoltz, Cates, and Roth) could not do better to bring to us a very subtle, touching, and elegant portrayal of loves come and gone and lives living on threads. There's no action here, and very little actually happens, but the dialogue and the attention to details are so strong, you find you don't need anything more; you can simply revel in each actors' beauty and condition. You have to watch this movie more than once, and you have to cry at times, it's that good. I'm scratching my head why this movie did not make greater acclaim. Either I'm going mental, or the world is just missing out.

I found the plot of the movie very character driven. Instead of give a plot it gave a lot of emphasis on how each character felt. No one really changed in the movie, situations just changed. I liked the style of the movie because it felt very real. The movie moved along at a steady enough pace, with a mellow tone the whole time. The ending was less than revealing and everything was left how it started, somewhat out of place.

Boring! This is another perfect example why you don't transfer plays into films. And if you're going to even try, you don't let the playwright do the screenplay. Lots of rest, little motion. Throw this one in the junk pile of plays with Hurlyburly.
