Muy bueno el equilibrio que logra la peli entre esos vectores. The pacing is great, the whole time you‘re watching curiously how the plot and its characters develops. We feel the urge to fight for every aspect of our life. No clear goals. There’s isn’t much of a way of a plot, just about a guy going around Paris, jerking off to porn and meeting up with a prostitute.
Ken Rudolph’s review published on Letterboxd: Simon is a college grad who has decamped to Paris, escaping from a badly ended relationship.
One of the many unwritten rules in cinema is that if you want to take a shortcut to showing a character has sociopathic tendencies, have them do some furious wanking to porn.
The focus here is on our main character which is a manipulative sociopath called Simon.
Simon uses Letterboxd to share film reviews and lists.
Maybe that is the point of a film about a sociopath...is to show the inherent folly or bizarre nature of their…has a lot of French electronic music, which i tend to like, and its formalism is kind of appealingly suffocating, which makes it all the more of a bummer when this decides to grow a pretty bland plot rather than remain willfully obtuse. Watched Recs welcome!Does it take you an hour to pick a movie? This captivating malevolent atmosphere of ominous intent is more than enough for one day. What we have with Antonio Campos' cerebral Brady Corbet plays an American in Paris looking to get away and leave his issues at the door, knowing too well they'll be waiting for him when he comes back.
If you expect a satisfying plot, you won’t get it here. Do you love all types of movies? i feel about this the way normal people -- people who aren't borderline sociopaths that get off on screen violence -- feel when they watch ONLY GOD FORGIVES.remarkably uncertain portrait of the span between a son and a sociopath.
A pulsating stentorian soundtrack beats throughout almost as if only existing to escape the deftly silence left in the protagonists life after his self-inflicted tumultuous path, and as all critters and beings know, silence is the enabler for mankind's most dark and ravenous act of 'thinking', and therein is truly where the most dangerous of cogs begin to turn. Favorites: The Handmaiden (2016), Antichrist (2009), The Lobster (2015), I Origins (2014). Harmless, sad, maybe even likable and trustworthy at first but...I love the way this unfolded. 989 films watched. Works every time.As open-minded about sex and sexuality as Antonio Campos probably thought he was being when making Simon Killer, he's actually just as backwards in his opinions as the vast majority of other filmmakers who have tackled this subject. But it's hardly the only thing in this dreadful film that got right on my tits.The endless wanking and shagging scenes are piled on top of each other…A pulsating stentorian soundtrack beats throughout almost as if only existing to escape the deftly silence left in the protagonists life after his self-inflicted tumultuous path, and as all critters and beings know, silence is the enabler for mankind's most dark and ravenous act of 'thinking', and therein is truly where the most dangerous of cogs begin to turn.
And THAT'S when the real danger starts.If I'm not mistaken, the point of making films for many directors is to try to find an audience in which they can either relate, or entertain to.
Works every time.
The film follows his descent into the hell of the Parisian underground of hard-R rated sex and blackmail. But I guess it added to the atmosphere of a foreign environment.I’ve always found Brady Corbet quite creepy, so naturally he played this role very well.Fantastic dark character study- instantly turned me into a fan of Antonio Campos.Pessimistic worldviews. What if our purpose in life is to exert our dominance over our "inferiors"?
The Letterboxd Era Catch-Up Project. Brady Corbet is great.
Despite the consternation of being an insidious build with few adrenaline pumping spikes the film remains quite indefatigable, in its mysterious movement the allure of its sinister vibe never quite retracts its claws enough to lose ground. For when you want to wallow in despair.This list is for scripts or source material written or co-written by women. By the time any pot started to happen more than half way in, it had already lost me, was struggling to keep my eyes open. But what if control IS our life?
