O Crepúsculo do Pé Grande

Well, I didn't actually knew what to expect, but in the end it was a quite entertaining experience.

The Zellner brothers introduced the movie to the audience at the Berlinale and said it probably is the weirdest Sasquatch movie. It is.

While some scenes are excessively obscene, we had some good laughs over the blunt portrayal of this family living in the woods. You will probably say WTF a dozen times. I understand that some people walked out of the theater. However, in my opinion, the movie manages to balance obscenity, humor and drama quite good.

Personally, I was pleasantly surprised how much story one can tell without using a single spoken word, and with only little facial expression. I believe the actors tried their best, but one could see that the costumes limited overall movement and expressions.

I would probably not pay 15 bucks again to watch the movie in a theater, but it wasn't too bad after all. A solid 7/10.

There are some beautiful things about this film. The photography is one of them. The music is also fitting. The rest is meh.

I guess one could dig deep and try to find as many meanings as one wants into this movie and that is certainly something that we should cherish. Spoon-feeding movies are not the solution. However, I'm pretty sure we can find a balance between an on-the-nose flick and this.

It is categorized as a comedy/drama/action/adventure, depending what website you check. Truthfully, if you have the sense of humor of a 12 year old, I can see the fun in it. However it becomes old quite quickly. When it comes to the drama...I don't know? When something bad happens is because the creatures are just stupid.... And when it comes to action or adventure? The most action-like moments happen off-screen and how can there be any sense of adventure when there is no sense of purpose. Meaning, direction, discovery, and desire?

There is no momentum, there is nothing going on but eating, having sex (or trying to), and pooping. I guess these are all worthy things to explore in a film, but making a feature film out of this is a bit ridiculous. I could this being a short film from some filmmakers trying to establish their style and showcase their skills, but a feature film? What for? We had at least a dozen eating scenes and none were substantially different than the others or had any particular implication.

I still give it a 5/10 because, as mentioned at the beginning, it is a movie that looks and sounds good. Too bad there is no story or rhythm or anything going on really.

Been looking forward to this for a while!

Definitely one of the most unique and among the most wierdest films i have ever watched in my life. And the wierd thing is that i can't describe it if its good (and actually in some ways artistic), serious or more like a parody comedy.

It's extremely well acted, must have been very difficult to act like this, but at the same time some scenes is way too much and makes it look like a parody. In some ways its primitive realistic and humorous as a follow up. The masks and make up is very well made.

I think its the first film ive watched where theres no spoken dialogue which makes is more realistic.

Filming is definitely very good.

Something uou havent ever seen before. Brings the concept of the mysterious Big Foots, to a whole new perspective and meaning.

It definitely has something i like, but more difficult to explain what it is.

Its not good, but it isn't bad.

So wasn't the biggest fan for how the storyline turned out, but living my whole life in the PNW in a very small town (carbonado, wa to be exact) and see how the wildlife and us blue collar folks are being pushed out by the gentrifies and big corps, so I can relate to how the Sasquatch felt. My husband and I are losing our home this month due to gentrification of a gouse we've lived for over 10 years so yeah. This def stuck a cord no matter how corny the movie it was itself at times. I would still recommend this movie to anyone with an open mind to a movie with almost no dialogue. It really does have a hidden message to it (especially if you're like me and having to move out of your home town after 30 years due to gentrification)

Sasquatch Sunset starts off as a laugh riot. For the first hour, the Zellner brothers deliver a surprisingly hilarious portrayal of a Sasquatch family navigating the trials and tribulations of...well, Sasquatch life. From their hilariously primal attempts at courtship to their unrefined digestive habits, the film finds humor in the unexpected, and anyone with a decent sense of humor will find themselves snorting with laughter.

Then, the sun inexplicably sets on the comedy. The light-hearted mood takes a sharp turn in the second half, venturing into surprisingly serious territory. Themes of life, death, and the struggle for survival come crashing in, leaving the audience with a gut punch where there were once guffaws. Here's the problem: the tonal shift feels unearned. Sasquatch Sunset spends so much time establishing itself as an absurdist comedy that the sudden seriousness feels jarring, like two entirely different movies stitched together.

It's a shame. The first hour is pure comedic gold, and the Zellner brothers deserve credit for their audacious premise. But the jarring shift into somber territory leaves the viewer feeling cheated. It's like being promised a cupcake and then getting served a bowl of lukewarm broccoli instead. If you're looking for a laugh-out-loud comedy, you'll have a blast with the first half of Sasquatch Sunset. Just be prepared for the unexpected emotional downpour in the final act.
