Connianatu How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Melanie Bouvet The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Saad Khan L'autre Monde – Black Heaven – TRASH IT (C+) L'autre Monde is a weird exotic French movie about a boy getting obsessed with the suicidal girl. The beginning of the movie is interesting and it seems very real but once the whole Black Hole game starts it kind of put the movie into another track. The Black Hole Tron lookalike scenes are not interesting, it's kind of weird. Grégoire Leprince-Ringuet is good but there is nothing much he could have done in it. Louise Bourgoin is exotic and Pauline Etienne is cute. On the whole L'autre is a perfect French movie everyone should avoid as it ruins the concept of the French movies.
martin-s-osuna As you all may already know, the original name of this film is The other world (in french off course) and that i think, is exactly the main idea of this film, but I'm not talking about "Black Hole" which is only the door for Gaspard, the door that leads to that other world where nothing/nobody is clear nor innocent, i love the way how this movie transforms from a romantic teenage naive story to this dark strange hybrid that turns out to be, so in my opinion the movie succeeds in showing us Gaspard's trip to that other neighbor complex almost non-moral world of Audrey and Vincent. I think Black heaven is an interesting different movie, it is fun, it is clever at parts and is well done, ironically it is still a bit naive even during its darkest moments.
charles000 This work was surprisingly well done, in various ways. Some of the other reviews I have read tend to make note of how unusual it might be that a young fellow would become "fatally attracted" (that's not a spoiler) as it were to a virtual entity in cyber space, to the point of abandoning his current girlfriend in the real world.Actually, that aspect has more parallels in the real world than some may realize. Having been acquainted with the virtual reality / cyber space avatar development domain for well over a decade (I was one of the early "residents" in Alpha World), and looking at examples such as 2nd Life currently, there are real examples of people who become completely consumed with their virtual existence, to the point of losing connection with the real world.This is not entirely unusual, so it was not that much of a stretch to identify with the story portrayed here in Black Heaven.The interesting twist is how the "Sam" avatar character had her live counterpart in the real world, and she would ensnare real people into committing, well, let's just say, extreme acts of devotion . . . and I won't say much more than that . . . which translated into and through consequences in her avatar world.It's a good story, very unique and well portrayed. It's not a flashy special effects extravaganza, though the virtual reality scenes are nicely done, but it is definitely a thinking person's film. I thoroughly recommend it as an interesting example of this genre'.
maxikompel L'autre Monde is a French drama which starts with the life of two "teens" (boyfriends) and they find a cellphone of an unknown person. They start to get involved in her life and the things she does, this will take Gaspard to find a virtual online game (the title of the movie refers to this game) and the plot will get so much exciting. I really liked this movie because I think it is very interesting and cool the story and how the facts happen over the course of the plot. To talk about the actors i have to say that i really love Louise Bourgoin in all the senses, it is really one of my favorite actresses, and this movie is not the exception. I really enjoyed it and I hope you too, i give it an 8/10. regards. maxi0305
