the score is perfect. amongst an orchestra set on one simple pattern like daily ceremonies, a violin weeps.
Kinski plays the part well, but there are not enough glimpses of the character. There fails to be expressed any real emotion in the shots. The jungle should be madness but it is not, it is just there. Aguirre's madness fails to be struck onto film. The film seems only to display not manifest.
Utter propaganda, it goes off on irrelevant facts about Al Gore's life, and makes him out to be some kind of hero.
never do the characters question anything or wonder, they just do. they aren't real, there is nothing human about them. they don't suffer anything. all of it is just an idealized story following the same guidelines as so many others. the sets, the costumes for the most part are atrocious. the songs with the exception of somewhere over the rainbow, are just terrible.
truly haunting.
excellent use of a microchasm. Nothing to distract from the center of the film.
Hilarious but rather incoherent.
You know a film is going to be a major dissapointment when it uses a theme song.
I think Inspirational is a synonym for crap.
Terrible Cinematography, some of the worst i have ever seen. it seems as though the movie wants it to be as mundane as the character's lives.
has the most annoying line ever muttered "Game over man."
Who doesn't love Kurosawa? I haven't met one person who dislikes him.
Though there isn't much to the film itself, the music is so beautiful and makes the film immortal.
The only surrealist sequence in the film, where Matsunaga is chased by himself, is so similar to that in Kagemusha. In both a person comes out of a coffin/pot, they chase a character played by the same actor, there is a painted sky, and there is water.
The Greatest Director Ever.
The Film lacks a clear direction with characters appearing randomly everywhere. Still a very strong film. The End however is amazing, a bloody massacare complex lighting, and countinous shots from room to room, it surely was an inspiration for Kill BIll. Note: I just found out his film was meant to be first in a trilogy which would explain some of the nonsense.
Blade Runner is a masterpiece but Ridley Scott is no master. Gladiator is just a terrible movie.
Why couldn't they just teach astronauts to drill?
