BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

kumquatnoir This movie is awesome. Great cast and locations. It made me cry. I don't don't know much about New Zealand, but hey - this is a special film. The sound track just works, and the guy who plays the lead is great too. The french chick in it is very sexy, and it's great that we get to see her breasts. It seems to have a lot of locations. It must have cost quite a bit. Shooting in Monaco and Venice must have been quite special. I don't want to put spoilers in so i'll refrain from saying too much about what it's about. Fundamentally it's a love story between two screwed up people - although the guy has a pretty good reason to be screwed up by all accounts. This movie very much took me on a journey and I enjoyed every minute of it.

thewilberforces-1 This movie is engaging. This has something to do with the acting, something to do with the direction and a lot to do with the handling of subject matter: A man who hasn't worked out what he wants to do with his life has suddenly been given a deadline. The performances are strong and its actually about something. Its a fantasy in a lot of ways, it plays out like the full spectrum of lifetime desires, misdemeanors and heartache. Through the sequence of this film, the lead character experiences both sides of betrayal, copious amounts of sex, wild spending, debauchery, a lot of pain and a lot of love. Its gorgeously shot too, across European winter and has a soundtrack to die for. This film seems to have polarized New Zealand audiences. In my world that means its a good film.

nz man This was the biggest film disappointment for me in a long time. I kept waiting and waiting for the film to get better, and I wanted to walk out - after all, I was the only one in the Wellington cinema and would not have bothered anyone by leaving. The cinematography and editing was acceptable, and like another reviewer here has commented, the various (European) cities were beautiful to see. Matt Whelan's acting was good, but at times Roxane Mesquida's acting came across as stilted and amateurish. It did indeed come across as pretentious, unrealistic, disharmonious and boring. The director and script writers must have been in a black mood to produce such a miserable story. Surely the high votes for this movie must be from those involved, and they will subsequently down vote this or any other negative review. All I can say is if you do choose to see this movie and find that you don't like it, then walk out!

Daniel Fernandez This is my first NZ movie I have ever seen. I didn't enjoy seeing it and I don't understand the high rate so far. I consider it's very unrealistic and the love story is extremely bored, particularly when the love story starts. I didn't probably get the suitable mood to watch this movie because I consider it more a fantasy or an adult tale than a fiction movie. This is the reason that I consider it pretentious and unrealistic (e.g. how we can understand the secret place in East of Europe? how we can understand the love story based on glances (without chatting)? how is possible no police in the hospital?, etcetera). However, the main character is well played by Matt Whelan, the beginning of the movie is compelling and some picture of the different cities are beautiful.
