Chariot

The plot boils down to a word: reincarnation. The script is just ballast to hold that word down.

There was more thought put into this review than into this childish waste of time of a movie, which not even the fairly capable cast could save.

A man retains a memory of an old life and cannot let it go. A doctor tries to figure out why the memory is persistent. The man continues his existence, unaware of his changed condition and trying to understand his new surroundings.

The story is told with dream logic. It paints mundane concepts on top of an unknowable in-between existence, and drops hints about the characters without telling too much. Is the man's bare room a reflection of who he was before? Is the woman's nicely decorated apartment a reflection of her previous existence?

The doctor's resolution to the man's problem is to burn the memories. He severs the man's ties to his old life, but the cycle continues anew in a different form.

This is one of the better movies I have seen this year and I look forward to more from the writer and director. The cast is also top-notch. The marketing team dropped the ball.

Honestly, one of the worst films I've ever witnessed. Any positive review of this film was obviously written by the director himself, or his mother

Felt like it was written by a 16yr old after his first psychology class.

How this hack of a writer/director ever got any actor to sign onto this project, let alone get financed is beyond comprehension! What has Malcovich done to deserve this! Has he been cancelled and this is the only job he can get? Rosa Salazar is the only performance that feels like she's an actual actor in this piece of garbage. This is a new cinematic low for the industry.

I think others' 1/10 is not totally fair. There are this kind of movies it just tells a little story, no start no ending. It is just a little piece happened somewhere in the corner of this world. It is not shawshank redemption or matrix, that you have a closure. Like looper 2012 or stay 2005, It is just a dream, it starts from nowhere and end up somewhere miles away.

If today is not important, and you are not sticked on you cellphone, grab a cup of drink, and maybe just enjoy this movie like a neighbor kid telling you a urban tale.

This chariot is a collection of clued together nothingness, John M is his normal boring self , don't know if this is a comic , horror or sci-fi ,it failed an all departments .Avoid if you have dishes to do or vacuum the house -it will be time better spent .
