Nonureva Really Surprised!

Tacticalin An absolute waste of money

Borgarkeri A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

Allissa .Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Kirpianuscus long time after its end, you are prisoner of a special state. it could be defined as emotion. but it represents more. it is a sort of new perception of world. "Ink" is an unique meet more than a great film. because it is the door to a different way to see ordinary things. because it is an adventure but out of ordinaries formulas. because it is one of films, more and more rare, who transforms yourself in part of it. a significant part. the end remains touching if you see again. the long trip of the characters has the same color and tension and flavor. and this is the detail who gives to it a special status. it is different. because it could be a story about its viewers.

katherine_bush A wonderful little movie. Doesn't spell it all out for you allows you to actually use your own brain and figure it out as you go. The archetypes are all there yet you can decide what you wish to believe. Very heartfelt and will force you to analyze your own misgivings in the past and the walls we have all built up from time to time to ensure the survival of our spirit. The film gives you hints you just have to pay close attention. Such as "time moves differently here" "those scars must have hurt A lot" I love how the audience is allowed to control their own beliefs just as the maim character is allowed. No ones views are pushed upon you. You have a choice you always have a choice. This is what it means to be alive. You have a choice. Having a bad day? We all have there yet it is a choice to allow it to haunt you or make the most of it.

altersaege Definitely different from anything I have seen before. I have the feeling that there is more than Cinema behind this. It feels like some kind of shamanistic art. It has got a kind of positivity which is not emotionally naive, not new age, not rhetorical or superficial, not moral or religious. It is a deeper kind of positivity, and it is brought into a visually fascinating movie with a good script, good acting, and a pleasant soundtrack. You just have to be prepared to a different experience than what you get every day from Hollywood. Although this is not a complicated intellectual movie, and it does not feel heavy at all, it may require a little more commitment than a popcorn movie or a easy going no-think "feel good" movie.

Dan Franzen (dfranzen70) In the visually fascinating Ink, teams of good and evil supernatural beings fight over the soul of one very unlucky little girl. Although the aesthetics are definitely pleasing, there is a lack of character development and a sometimes inscrutable storyline. In all, though, this is an intriguing tale.It all starts when a hulking, cloaked figure named Ink steals into young Emma's room one night and tries to make off with her, only to run into a small squadron of good guys called Storytellers. Ink gets away, but a small drum he uses to transmit a secret code (which allows him to return to a different realm.Ink wants to use Emma (played with great verve by Quinn Hunchar) as a way to ingratiate himself with the Incubi, beings that directly provide mortals of the real world with nightmares (contrasted with the Storytellers, who furnish people with sweet dreams). Ink is under the belief that he can overcome his overwhelming guilt and shame by becoming an Incubus himself. He does not reckon with a Storyteller named Liev (Jessica Duffy), who willingly surrenders to Ink in order to save Emma.But, lest you think this is something akin to kid-fantasy movies like Labyrinth and Willow, there's a deeper theme to all of this other than those of atonement and reconciliation. Everything is connected, a sentiment to which good-guy Jacob (Jeremy Make), a blind Pathfinder (his title is sort of explanatory), certainly subscribes. If you want to prevent a particular future, you must find an item in the sequence leading up to that future - and then break the flow of events.For me, Ink was one of those movies that seemed to make little sense at first. Gradually, though, I began to grasp just how fraught with meaning it truly was. So many questions occurred: Why is Emma so important to everyone? Who is Liev, and what makes her so special? Why do Incubi wear those creepy electronic monitors over their faces? Why is Ink so grotesque? And then, like finally being able to fold a fitted sheet, the battle comes to a remarkably satisfying conclusion. We don't learn everything, but the light shed in the final scenes is highly gratifying. The viewer may slap his or her head, wondering why they didn't piece it all together earlier, but that's the beauty of the screenplay by Jamin Winans (who also directed). The only real debit is that the movie doesn't delve too deeply into the motives or emotions of any of the characters, even the leads. Ink seems to only scratch the surface of a very intriguing mythology, that of the beings who fight to wrest away our souls by way of our dreams.
