Watch Together For Free

Such a frustrating disappointment

Don't listen to the negative reviews

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Saw this film at the Munich Filmfest where it was described as a minimalist gem, an artistic masterpiece. I would describe it at pretentious and comatose inducing. The film consists of around ten loosely connected scenes each of which in their own right would be acceptable as a short before the main feature. But together your are left wondering what is the point, where is the narrative.The film revolves around Gabino, Luisa and Paco, a couple and roommate, their runaway dog and failing household appliances. Scene after scene where very little happens. A five minute scene as a character walks away across a moor, another scene featuring full frontal nudity where Gabino washes himself. Five more minutes eating tacos. A film with no beginning, no middle and no ending.Were this a film studies University Project then I could accept that the long single cut scenes and composition were there to tick the examiners boxes. But this should never make it beyond the classroom. I guess the same people who look at a painting of a few coloured boxes and call it a masterpiece may think the same of this. But to me this was a pointless 73 minutes of my life which I will never get back.
