It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
I loved it, the pace, how calm it went, and it was a great chance of pace. The acting was excellent, and even with a character that can't speak, it was done amazingly well. I would put it with movies like Drive, A Place Beyond the Pines, and other calm drama movies. I highly recommend
Oh my gosh. What a mess. At about the 20 minute mark, I realized this was not a good film. Poorly cast (Paul Rudd is not a convincing bad guy), filled with scenes of probably unintentional hilarity, and dully paced. This is one serious stinker of a movie. The fact that it's trying so hard for a Blade Runner city vibe just makes it look all the worse compared to the masterful Blade Runner sequel that came out around the same time.I'd say skip this one. It's not bad enough to be entertainingly bad, it's just bad.
This movie was so incredibly boring that I wanted to chop off my own foot just so that I could have something more interesting to focus on. Such a shame, too, because I'm a huge fan of both Alexander Scarsgard and Paul Rudd. Near the end, my family and I didn't even really understand what was going on anymore.
I'm very surprised by the low ratings here. As a cyberpunk fan I found it to be really good. The distopian universe they depicted is both a beautiful hommage to what's been done (with some direct visual references) and a welcome expansion to the genre. I'd say that if you like Blade Runner and the Ghost in the shell anime series then you'll likely enjoy this one. The artisic people behind it did a terrific job creating a believable neon-lit Berlin and depicting the daily life of it's citizens.So with that, do not expect a sci-fy action movie packed with laser guns. The narrative revolves around a mute guy knocking around doors looking for someone dear to him, unraveling the mystery of her disappearance. I personally like this idea of the main character to be mute as it creates more interaction with the surrounding world and it's people, thus sometimes creating funny situations. The other main characters are kind of a wierd bunch with a twisted backstory, the kind of story that's pretty common in the cyberpunk genre. (I mean.. even Blade Runner has it's share of 'em)Now the score by Clint Mansell is definitely way more subtle than what he previously composed for "Moon" but I guess the point was to help the believability of the universe, something around those lines. The result is that you don't think about it much, while still enjoying the ride.To sum up this is one of those movies I'll gladly watch again from time to time as it is, to me, a welcome addition to the cyberpunk family.(English is not my mother tongue, sorry about the painful-to-read sentences, but this movie doesn't deserve such low ratings)
