Simply A Masterpiece
As Good As It Gets
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Beautiful, subtle, complex and ultimately gratifying. This film is a masterpiece of misdirection, (actually several misdirections), understatements, and events and scenes which, when introduced, cause the viewer to re-orient and re-interpret what preceded. However, the "new" understanding has to be scrapped as yet another scene layers another interpretation. The question at the end remains: agonal* dream, supernatural events, real life? Which is which, or are the interpretations mutually exclusive? Some class this film as "horror," but, if it's horror, it's an entirely different brand - no chain-saws, no slashing, only a few brief scenes of what appears to be an animated dead body- even these can be interpreted at the time of viewing, as nightmares being experienced by the protagonist. This is my kind of movie. *agonal - pertaining to death or extreme suffering.
As stated in my title, I'm "stuck in the middle" with the movie. It is a very haunting piece. Given the film's ending, I decided to watch this again to take the lines and characters in once more. Having certain religious beliefs, I don't condone the story's plot at all, but I am a definite fan of Fehr. I must say that the cinematography/photography is absolutely STUNNING. Watching a second time gave me a chance to notice the individual raindrops on the "Tracks'" windows, the glorious colors of the flowers, and the overall arrangement of the scenes. When the movie is shown, I flip to another channel. It is very thought provoking but if you are of a particular faith, this movie will not set well with you. I gave this movie a 9 out of 10 due to its overall picturesque appeal......
Great film! Great ending ... I was totally surprised.I really liked Chad Lindberg's performance ... that guy is a great character actor. The story takes leads you to believe one thing but in really is different than what you are lead to believe. It is a film that has a twist that you don't see coming that makes you rethink all of the dialog up to that point. Clever story with an ending that can be considered uplifting or a tragedy depending on your own point of view. I also really enjoyed the music in the film. Lots of great upcoming bands from all over.I definitely recommend it!
This is really awful ... the high rating is a JOKE!!! It would be a great camp fire story to be told to 10 year old's in five minutes. To drag it out for a full length movie was painful.If makes little sense as it is going ... and much less sense when it is finally over and you think about it (and I recommend you do not think about it ... or watch it) They say a good Hollywood movie can be written on a matchbook ... and this one should have stayed on the matchbook. Extremely slow and boring (nearly fell asleep twice), and the ending was no shock. In fact, it was a yawn!The best thing was the lesbian kiss, and one of the lesbian's butt, but there is no nudity ... so again, great for 10 year old's, and adults should avoid this like the plague.
