1915

This was definitely not the 1915 movie I expected! It did challenge me on what I expected from a 1915 movie.

I found the movie quite arty but well-made. It took me a while to understand the metaphors throughout the movie but that's what I liked about it. It was not as straightforward as many Hollywood movies. It makes you think and reflect about your own feelings about the Armenian Genocide. The movie delved into the topic of denial in a metaphorical way and brings to the audience's attention that the Armenians in the diaspora are still somewhat lost due to this denial of the Armenian Genocide.

A great, challenging movie with great actors and real feeling.The characters were meant to be the current generation of Armenians. The 2 leads where very convincing in their roles. They showed a great depth in characters.

Definitely recommend watching it. Great movie for a debate!

I downloaded the movie in HD through the official website, expecting a historical drama about the Armenian genocide. Instead, what I watched was a a thrilling psychological movie with a message and intended for a wide audience, be it Turk, Armenian or other. It was beautiful to watch a movie that could break boundaries and make you think deep.

I agree it's not for everybody, everyone can have their own perception but I understand the importance of such movies. The Armenian genocide of 1915 affected real people and their ancestors, the movie talks about real experience in a contemporary world. watch it. I also recommend the soundtrack, it was beautiful and I found out that Serj Tankian was the musical director. The music played a good role in putting me in the vibe and I felt something very strong at the end of it all.

I lived in the Armenian neighborhood just south of Melrose Avenue in East Hollywood during the Summer of 1988, and don't remember ever being around a more gentle and friendly ethnic group. This film is complex and wonderful and quite different from most films--and I have a super soft spot for old theatres, ghosts or no ghosts. If you care about the human plight and condition, see this film.

A mass of confusion for this viewer. The story seems to bounce around between - the horrible 1915 genocide of Armenians, a haunted theatre, a love triangle, political protesters, arguing actors, a frustrated director, police, how to sell tickets for a one night performance, a possible murder plot, and an actress that can channel the dead.

I got lost in this story. I was hoping for some insight into the 1915 massacre innocent people but nothing like that happens. The entire story is more about Simon's ego than bringing to the public knowledge a horror that happened 100 years ago.

A very odd movie.

This is history that needs to be told. This is history that people need to know. This is more than a global event. This is a human event. This is more than politics. This is about the treatment of a whole people. You might think you don't like history. You might think you don't care about global events. Or you might not think about history or global events at all. But hopefully you care about people and people's lives. Whether you agree with the politics or not, you need to know the story. See the movie. It's filmed in a style that will appeal to everyone. It's revealing, it's emotional, it's action, it's drama, it's suspense, it's about perseverance, it's about people.
