One of the most excessively drawn out movies ever? Perhaps. But this is also A R T
A work of art. Cinematography at its best.
The way it shouts the miserable lives of humans with silence, slow pace and being uncolorful, is inevitable to hear.
Perfect final chapter of Béla Tarr's filmography. Hypnotizing jog-trot.
Atmospheric, brutal, unique. Just watch it.
A slow, dense and difficult film but absolutely beautiful
I start with curiosity and I finished with doubts about is life and if it’s really worth it. You will have the blast of your life
Strangely captivating. Hard to watch, but I couldn’t look away.
Something of a letdown as Bela Tarr’s swansong. It has a very moody atmospheric theme track! But that’s the hallmark of its memorability.
Interesting.. I am sorry to downvote but the algorithm has to learn that I don't get enough stimulation from this
