Btexxamar I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.
Majorthebys Charming and brutal
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
jleon25 Is it just me? OK so the husband deserves to be cheated on. He is neglecting his wife like all the rest of these movies. Somehow, the wife is cheating, as always because it's her husband fault. Somehow, like all the rest of these cheating wife movies, It's never the wife's fault for not expressing her dis-satisfaction of her life. It's never the wife's fault for not communicating what she is missing. Skipping the whole idiotic melodrama.In the end, this harlot, is not held accountable for causing the death of her son as he tries to pull away from her after he figured out, his mother, is having an affair with his partner of a restaurant and much younger man. A man as old as her son. The stupid movie ends with her telling her husband she loves the son's partner. The maid starts to pack her stuff. She leaves with nothing and you see her and her lover living happily ever after in a cave? Is this for real? Your time is not worth it.
TRlNITY This movie is so great. I'll skip everything you've already read about the cinematography and the acting - all so well done. It really felt like a book on screen not a movie. ie much more depth than you usually get. More subtleties.The only thing I didn't like was how they make the main character "heroic" (via the music). While she is so beautiful on the outside - she's so ugly on the inside; letting her son die to keep her selfish secret safe. She treats her husband poorly when he's done nothing but love and provide for her. Yet the movie portrays her as this bird trying to get air.... I dunno. A little more like a selfish beauty who is actually monstrous - complete with teeth and talons ripping her family apart to get what she fancies.... this year. You do get the impression she'll want something else in a few yrs and she'll rip her "new stable life" apart when she does. That twisted morality aside... :-) this movie is worth every minute. I did not find anything distracting about the camera angles or the music. Every part of it had purpose. And a lot of the images, in my view, were symbolic.
joel-280 Let's start with what's good: beautiful outdoor shots, a beautiful mansion in/near Milan, wonderful stuff about the servants and the parties of the very rich.That's all, folks...Every character is cardboard; there's no depth, or at least (in the Emma -Tilda Swinton character) no believable depth. The plot has no surprises, except for one complete deus ex machina that's used to wrap it up -- with an ending that I at least found, consistently with the rest of this turkey, to be wildly unlikely and hence incredible. Ooooh the languor of the formal-dinner-partying rich, back in the days when one had a dozen servants to execute it. Ooooh the loving devotion of the chief housekeeper, mother to all three generations of "her" family. Oooooh the lovely, hairy body of the unsurprising love interest. And so on, and so on. The unfeeling, greedy industrialists? Wow, that's shocking. The sensitive son, who has no problem with his gay sibling but butts heads with his greedy cold dad? Who would have thought it? There is no interesting idea anywhere in this movie.
Muhammad Nabeel "I've nothing left to say." Krzysztof Kieslowski said when asked why he stopped making film. Luca Guadagnino has "something to say" but we're all ears that much or just fascinated with this fabulous images!. I think this conflict was greatly illustrated in a surrealistic way with this Philadelphia scene and operatic venture in the background, the look in Emma's eyes was louder than words, she's suffering in a silent mode after delivering parties smoothly to the others, some how she's thinking of breaking this silence but only in her conceptual imagination. Emma do not talk that much in Guadagnino script but you are totally attracted to her in a conceptual way. Once Emma touched by pain she's not the same, and Guadagnino made his touch of perfection on his masterpiece when she's gone.
