Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Taivo Stimmer When you like Mulholland Dr. or 2001:Space Odyssey, then this movie is for you. When you like U.S. trash comedies don't watch it. Yes, it is a movie hard to watch. Even the critics have told that this movie is too complicated, but I'm sure that Attila Janich had a purpose to create it that way. I've heard that to truly understand the movie you have to detect very little details. I couldn't detect them myself, but this was not a problem. When the film ends, then you'll see, that the whole is what makes it masterpiece- cinematography, editing and the music. So if you are home alone and you have the Masnap DVD, don't hesitate, just watch it.

jon-370 I saw this @ SIFF - right after his film 'The Long Twilight' which honestly I preferred. The main actor here reminded me quite a bit of John Lithgow. The disturbing climactic scene was equal parts murder scene from the end of 'Twin Peaks:Fire Walk With Me' and ape-murder-with-bone scene from 2001. I had just seen 'November' a few days before. I was struck with similarities to this film - several short segments each preceded by a still card with a short name. In November we had 'Denial', 'Acceptance' ... here we had 'The Sky', 'The Dirt' ... In both November and this film we have an ambiguous mixture of events preceding along a general time line and the same events be relived but slightly differently. Both November & this film were created in 2004, with November "being written in 2 weeks" - perhaps enough time for this film to be the basis for November (which of course has a much thicker veneer of Lynchian visual & sound effects).

Sandor Seres Poor Andrei Tarkovski....The story is about a middle-aged man, probably a photographer from a big city, who arrives to a lone countryside, into a world of the struggling small farms, where the locals are poor_loser_caricatures, who are not_so_helpful, primitive, but sometimes secretive and almost always rude for the stranger and play disgusting and violent games among them. Our man arrives to a land, when the time seems to be frozen and the opportunity of the return (escape maybe) is offered very soon to him, even before the opening titles run down. The suspense starts, but will fade away to nowhere with the sympathy of the audience. The chopped and mixed episodes are repeated with small alterations, and big confusion (see Pulp Fiction or Mulholland Drive), but the movie runs with a very slow pace and focusing a lot on the treasures of the nature (tiny hills, gentle slopes, leafy trees, a beautiful and mysterious creek) and sleazy, dirty indoors with worn-out countrymen waiting for the hopeless redemption (see Stalker). The movie 'Másnap' is a missed opportunity for a good and tasty film. The outdoor shots are delightful for the fans of the original and perfect cinematography, but the indoors are dull and sometimes even stupid. The feeling of a timeless, unforgiving world with multiple spaces and times for one act is defined deliberately and on a fine way, but for nothing as the following episodes are dull and annoying. The film borrows some pictures from Tarkovski (Solaris, Stalker), Kurosawa (Rashomon), Hitchcock basics and even from Kobayashi's Kwaidan, but there is no connection, no purpose for them.The scene follows the murder, when the stone is thrown to the creek and we see the water to flow and the water-plants bending, is a direct copy from Andrei Tarkovski and is very painful near to the end of the struggling and tiring, time-wasting film. The world of Másnap has nothing common with the great Tarkovski movies, and no real connection to Hitchcock or Kurosawa...The script is divided for parts as 'The Sky', 'The Dust', 'The Wind' and 'The Road' but it makes no difference: it is a flop with a lot of stolen motifs from the classics with no real dialog, no real story, no coherence. The slow pace, strange faces and dialogs are just like in a bad dream, but a dream is not as long as this disaster.So the result is about 50 % - it should have been completed, mainly with the scissors...

phillamg In short avoid this film.Before watching this film the director told the audience that it may not make sense as we watched it (as time is not sequential and the lead character has memory problems) but by the final scene it would all reveal itself to us.*** Slight Spolier but very important ***He lied. The direction and the changing time points without of knowledge kept us interested and we needed to know how it all knits together but the ending was so weak with no explanation of why the character(s) were motivated to do it. Very disappointed.
