    Excellent

    "The end of your story was written in the Book of Destiny before you sucked in your first breath" Very rarely I give a 10/10 rating to movies let alone a short animated DC series. But this movie is really beyond all! A story of a painter & his last distressing time with the angel of death...

    Without words

    I already agree with almost every other review and I can't think of anything more to add. I just wanted to say this:

    • My eyes got wet and I'm a big a** man. It wasn't very far from tears being involved... Last time that happened while watching a movie was maybe 10 years ago.

    Utterly Amazing

    Beautiful peice of art through and through. Wonderful story and incite into these challenges.

    Amazed

    As a Neil Gaiman fan and a fan of the DC Vertigo Sandman universe, I was really surprised to know of this film's existence. This story was very touching and spoke to me on a personal level. I loved every minute of this and hope to see more of Gaiman's work adapted to the screen.

    you know the feeling when you cry but you are happy, it's the opposite

    9 because it shouldn't be 10 9 because I didn't even want to watch 9 because I wanted to give it a 10 but I can't maybe it's just me who aren't familiar with sad/dark movie but briefly telling the background of watching this movie before getting into it it was part of collection of short movie , first one was about story of Robin death , next was zeta beam or something , afterward phantom stranger , while the first was the reason I started watching the whole collection, the two after was measurable or at least weren't at correct time so I was totally disappointed , and that was the last , at the beginning I said I will close with the worst movie of all but then ... it spokes to me, when I saw the end I realized I haven't understand it from first time , watched it again , and thereafter repeated the ending alone like twice , and every time I was crying , it's a sad story , really sad story , first time I saw it I thought well the demons who are his fears are the Death somehow , but the truth was even crucial, now I don't know whether it was a good thing I watched it in the middle of the day or I should have waited till the evening , as I feel my day ruined somehow and nothing taste good no more, I am trying to search for another thing to watch but even my favorite movies and series doesn't have taste, I was looking for a continue or anything relevant , obviously there isn't after reading my review you might sense a huge negative energy or review , the thing it's not, well the movie somehow is all about that but in slightly elegant way that even after writing this review he still deserve 10 , but 9 all he gets

    • Quotes

      Vincent: Look, it wasn't just a pick-up line before when I said I wanted to paint you a portrait. I see something in you. Beauty, with an incredible sadness beneath it. So young, and somehow so very old. I've been waiting for this moment, this chance, my entire life.
