teamkiller said: i watched that shit in a k hole. As someone said, about an hour into it, i was absolutely stunned and seriously thought the movie was leading to something that would fuck em up pretty bad.
So i paused it and watched the end in a different k hole, a different time.
super intense, but not much plot/anything happening. It doesn't go anywhere.
the plot is pretty straightforward, metaphorically speaking that is. it follows the point of view of the protagonist from the moments before his death to the moments in between his reincarnation, up to his second birth. if you aren't familiar with the tibetan book of the dead then it seems like it's all random but that's the point of the plot where alex, the protagonist's friend, explains what the book is about. if you pay attention to his description of the book, that's exactly what the film proceeds to show you.
but the protagonist doesn't get it, listen to his reaction after alex explains the theory of the book, and look at alex's reaction. the protagonist (what's his name?) is 'stuck in the cycle'. the cycle is what the film shows you, this one dude's life as a series of events that shaped who he was up until his death. watch it again, you'll see what i'm talking about.
edit: hurr durr trippy movie bro

Lol, pedantic much? nigged.
I knew all that, the second half is still boring. perhaps instead of directionless i should have said the plot crawls.
edit: also nice plot spoils, double nigged.

I thought it was great. I agree with the second statement though. it's almost like false advertising, everything about this movie screamed "TRIP MOVIE TRIP MOVIE" but if i watched that shit on a good dose i'd be turning it off after the first 20 minutes or so because the whole thing is like designed to put you in a negative thought loop.

It's visually and conceptually ambitious as hell. The camerawork alone is worth watching it for, although I'm a photographer so I get off on that stuff.
I do think Irreversible is a better film though, albeit slightly more disturbing (for me at least).

Haven't read the whole thread so sorry if someone posted it already... OP check out "Seul Contre Tous" AKA "I Stand Alone". I think it's the first movie of Gaspar Noe. (rumours are he's making a new movie which sounds pretty good).
Also check out la cité des enfants perdus (city of lost childen) and delicatessen. Not as fucked up as Gaspar's work but still pretty trippy nontheless.

vouching for delicatessen. and there's another tripy movie... it involves typewriters that turn into giant bugs, and hallucinogenic/deleriant drugs. I think Major Winters from Band of Brothers is in it, Damian Lewis?
