Life

msmichel

Disappointing new film from director Anton Corbijn (Control, A Most Wanted Man) that attempts to tell the tale of the famous photos from Life magazine taken by Dennis Stock of James Dean. The main issue is the under written script and how every actor pales next to Dane DeHaan, who is perfectly cast as the iconic Dean, especially poor Pattinson who never seems to get to the soul of this character. Dry and uninvolving.

José Neves

Author of a dull and highly praised biography of Ian Curtis, this photographer shows, if confirmation were needed, that about cinema he keeps a sense of placid and correct composition, without any possibility of a disturbing or instinctive element, which, in some ways, match his photographer's work: still (dead) images. A caricature of cinema extended to the protagonists, ingloriously striving.

Even not knowing on which character I should be focused, “Life” presents articulate fractions of moods and vibes while resting in its passionless pose.

the acting is so bad , the guy who played James Dean tried too hard to look/act like him and in the end the whole thing looked weird and unnatural. With indulgence, i will give this a 1.5

Nothing beats James Franco's James Dean. But I was glad to see Dane DeHaan in any movie actually. Rob Pat's in his usual creepy self. Wonderfully shot, I have to say.

Dane DeHaan is excellent as Dean, Pattinson is decent too but the film itself just sort of floats along until it's over, which isn't a huge knock for a film called Life.

Oh God, it doesn't do justice for Dennis Stock and his relationship with James. But Dane Dehaan's portrayal of James Dean made me happy so all the stars belong to him.

Dennis Stock falan biraz hikaye olmuş. Stock'dan çok Dean'in hayatına vurgu var. Yanıltmaca hoş değil, keşke direk James Dean filmi yapmaya odaklansaymış Corbijn. Belki o zaman daha sağlam bir film olabilirmiş.
