Watch It's Only the End of the World For Free

Simply A Masterpiece

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

I really don't know what's all the fuss about especially that it was a box office. In my opinion, it's not meant for everyone to watch. Not everyone would enjoy a film discussing an unpleasant social phenomena that's taking over modern societies. I was hoping for something to happen all through the movie and that what kept me watching it to the end. Nothing's happened and that was the good part. All the characters feel lonely and can't really communicate, including the protagonist.

Film Review: "Juste La Fin Du Monde" (2016) - Just passing the age of twenty seven, Director Xavier Dolan presents another deeply thought-provoking let-out picture after his already accomplished entreé "Mommy" (2015) on the human condition with "It's Only The End Of The World" at Cannes Film Festival in its 69th edition to all-round comprehension of the leading character of successfully spoiled writer Louis, timid, yet just matching performance by actor Gaspard Ulliel who encounters his throughout unforgiving family after a twelve year absence within their downsized walls of so-called home.The director also uses his prerogative of final cut, arranging splendid chamber playing of full frontal character footage with poetic light, flashbacks and angle transitions from a close-to-be-family cast surrounding Léa Seydoux as closest down-on-luck sister Suzanne, Marion Cotillard as the character of Catherine for stability, Nathalie Baye as mother and actor Vincent Cassel as nerve-striking closer-to-be-wrecked older brother Antoine, who confronts Louis with his life of homosexuality and constant faded story-telling as an international writer, building over a running time of 90 Minutes a decent enough tension point of no returns to take the filmmaker's transcended emotion home to remember.© 2017 Felix Alexander Dausend (Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC)

Canadian-French wonder kid Xavier Dolan is back with a – surprise! – vitriol-filled family drama. A terminally ill guy (Gaspard Ulliel) returns to his rejected close ones to reveal that he is dying. Also starring, Nathalie Baye, Vincent Cassel and Marion Cotillard. It's based on play (by Jean-Luc Lagarce), so it's mostly these four, in the bitter battle which is called trying to reconnect with the loved ones.I would say that in its current form, it would be pretty interesting 20-30 minute short movie. But it's stretched onto 97 minutes. The makers have cared little about building the mood or letting the text breathe and find it's natural pace, so the story never really becomes watchable.The first about 25 minutes are actually almost unbearable – just fighting and insults. No rhythm or rhyme to this non-stop viciousness, and they don't say almost anything remotely interesting. Which is kind of the point of (this part of the) story, but still wears you down. Be honest and say that it didn't.Essentially, the movie is not about relations at all but a symbolistic overview of accepting one's death – or human being's fear of death, which some would say is our main motivational force behind everything. Every family member represents a different stage of grief which rises from knowing there's no escape from the inevitable. And different parts of the story play the process through.Written like that, it sounds intriguing. And it is, conceptually. But for me, the makers have found just about the most tiresome approach to unravel it. Still, I like the artsy interludes and the end scene.This is the first Dolan movie I've seen, and it certainly arouses interest for his previous work – it's the sixth full-length movie written and directed by him, and the dude is only turning 28 by the end of the month!

This film tells the story of a gay man who goes back to his home town to see his family, after not being in touch for twelve years. The film details the interaction between him and his for family members, which is dysfunctional and twisted.I was captivated by the last film "Tom at the Farm", so I had high hopes for "It's Only the End of the World". This time, the gay subplot is only a minor incidental subplot, as the director has obviously made it big, and can attract a plethora of big stars. The plot is initially quite plain, but as the story builds up, it gets more intense and twisted. One would be excused for thinking Gaspard Ulliel being the star of the film, but it's Vincent Cassel who is the real lead actor in this. His character is so unlikable, that it will surely evoke much emotions in the viewers. The final showdown is so captivating that it is almost unbelievable. The very final scene uses a significant imagery, and it brings viewers right down to rock bottom. This film is so intense and captivating, I enjoyed it loads.
