Nr. 10

If you (also) like unusual non Hollywood films, then you should give this one a chance. The film starts in one genre and ends in a different one. Van Warmerdam films have a distinct style, just like Wes Anderson films have a distinct style. If you like this one, then there are nine more to see.

Many stories in a single movie packed into a half an hour is not something done easily. There's so much that's told visually than verbally. We see the dubiousness, hate and nothingness of lives through unique set of characters. Setup of backgrounds was something stands out. Consistent performances by the cast keep the story's puzzling as ever. The colour schemes throughout the story adds rigidity and cinematography leaves many avenues of thought open to dissect the story but it's safe to say that Gunter maybe imagining a whole lot slowly drowning in madness after nailing Marius whose been floating off the stage anyway. A great work of art that floats to outer space.

This German oddity of a film is vaguely entertaining only because most of the films of 2021 were subpar in comparison. The film seriously bogs down in the second half, and it is not the fault of the fine actors involved. It is the fault of the writers. The pacing is terrible in the second half, as is the story line development. I can suspend disbelief, but I cannot suspend logic. Much of the second half of the film defies logic. Don't bother seeing this film unless you can see it for free like I did with a pass from my brother in law, Geoff, who is the theater manager of the multiplex where I live.

One of the worst movies I've seen in a decade. The acting and writing of the first part is actually really good and believeable. The second part is what makes you forget the great acting from talents such as Bokma and Kesting. The second part is bad in every sense of the word. It's never creative and/or well worked out. It felt like jumping into a swimming pool covered with a thick layer of ice. Why this movie ever got funded beats me... the fact that it scores decently here on IMDB is something I just don't understand, but I can guess how that happened...

Goede Nederlandse film, goede plots en veranderingen. Het wordt absurd, maar GA. DIT. ZIEN! Donkere humor en goede dialogen met een hoop verrassingen.
