Quantum Cowboys

Last night I got the opportunity to view this in muenzinger at CU. It was very well produced and it had great story telling! The soundtrack obviously was worked on a good amount of time and it matched the scenes very well! This was the cast and crews baby for the time spent producing and it grew up as a beautiful film piece! This was very well directed and it was very enjoyable for me and hopefully for many others who get to see it in the future! At the end of the viewing, Geoff talked about his experience creating this bad-boy and is an extremely passionate film creator and was very personally inspiring to me! I could have gotten down more complicated description of the animation, but I want to leave those reading my review, it was really great! There was a quantum physics aspect that made it deeper and led me to think a lot about what it was saying! *I'm still in a deep ponder in the state of wonder.

As an artist myself, a painter specifically, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie as a moving, literally and figuratively speaking, flowering of rich, unique, and varied animated imagery. I will include "Cosmic Cowboys" in my own personal curatorial list of works I find particularly insightful, entertaining, and strangely relevant in a world hellbent on violence and destruction. Regarding relevance or the question of why this movie is of our present time, the movie offers Hope, at least, a hint that we are not totally powerless and without agency, that we have the ability to peer beyond an authoritarian materialism, and that our mere observation, our particular focus, can indeed affect future events.

Quantum Cowboys was a masterpiece, I couldn't take my eyes off all the different animation styles. Warped my vision but also tickled my brain in just the right spots. All for the trippy western vibes. Kept me intrigued, guessing & giggling till the end. Their journey and sweet friendship was fun to see; the perfect trio. Reminds me of all the challenges I've gone through in life, there is so many different perspectives to have on every little thing.

All the characters really pulled me in, the entire crew really MADE THIS FILM. To see Lily's comedic side show was also very refreshing. I've been recommending this to all my friends. I really hope we get to see more from this peyote fever-dream<3.

I saw this at the Hell's Half Mile film festival in Bay City, Michigan and was absolutely mesmerized by it. It's one of those movies you need to see several times to fully understand it (i really doubt that I did) but it's such a wonderful visual experience that it aches to be seen on a big screen. It feels loose and improvised, though I doubt that it was, and the cast is just so damn cool. I mean, Neko Case and John Doe?! Come on!!! Stylistically, it's all over the place, which could hurt but really serves the film and the entire experience. I can't remember the last time I saw a movie where every moment was a surprise and every image a work of art.

I did not expect to like this movie and i was more than pleasantly surprised& impressed. I had the opportunity to see this at AFF23 and you never know with indie films (especially westerns set in the past, present, and future) Not to get too religious, but I lowercase-b believe we live in a matrix & this movie shook hands with my already held ideas about life & the universe+ time and space. I can't wait to watch this again when it is available to screen at home for hidden treasures. Please also make more of this content for me to consume & absorb. I will buy mercy, share with my friends and family and anyone who will listen. I will make memes for Reddit. I will make tiktok videos with the characters. It will make everyone involved a lot of money.
