The Limits of Control

I f you don't get it, then you weren't supposed to. "The universe has no center and has no edges".

Who is that naked chick in the movie? I mean jeez!!! Sie hat einen schoenen Arsch!!! Ich wuerde sie vielen mal ficken. ACH JAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think her name is Paz- something something, anyways, she is friggin' hot. I'd totally pound it... no.... I'D DESTROY ITTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!! To get specific, it's the scene where he walks into his room and she laying there totally ohne kleidung, and she was playing with his gun she found in his room, but he took it from her, and then she offered etwas Geschlechstverkehr, aber er sagt nichts, so er ist einen bloedmann. Er ist Schwanzlos!!!!!!!!!!! und er ist Hodenlos!!!!!!!! Ich hoffe, dass er wird bald sterben!!!!!! If you wanna see a schoene nackte Fraulein, see this movie. Auf wiedersehen, ihre Zwittere.

The primary drawback is that the story develops at a rate slower than what American audiences are accustomed too. If you have an attention span longer than sixty seconds this evening, this might not be a drawback at all. The movie presents identity as an existential enigma with mortally threatening definite edges. It is meta-tation on the nature of perception.

this film is a beautiful gift, as it gives the viewer extended moments to reflect on not only what they are seeing, but what it is allowing the viewer to craft of an experience as well. this film is very much the most fascinating trip to an art exhibition ever taken. i appreciate that it didnt need to fill each moment with dialogue or action. the cinematography is breathtaking, the acting perfectly executed, and the script as sparse as possible. i agree with another reviewer that the trailer was misleading, however i enjoyed this film far more than i would have supposed from the trailer i saw. this is definitely worth watching, however do yourself a favor and watch it in as large a format as possible. also invest in the soundtrack/s as they are both worth multiple visits.

Plain boring and hollow. Few good elements though for Jarmush fans (not for wider audiences) - good soundtrack, photography, visuals and atmosphere but somebody should read the script before filming... The story mistakes mystery for hollow chic wasteland of imagery and very thin story that takes you to the longest ride. Your good will and patience is really pushed to the limit. Waste of a great cast ensemble - these actors deserved better. Not the best of Jarmush.

I find it very disheartening that this movie got so many bad reviews. I think it speaks to what people expect from modern cinema. I think most people just want sensory overload, that to them, makes a good film. Too bad. This is a beautiful film, in looks and in total execution. I think people expect too much to be fed to them so they can easily digest what they are seeing and hearing. Unfortunately, for most viewers they don't understand the relationship they have with art. Just like a listener of great music, a viewer must think, must push their own understanding to come out of the other side. Alas, I don't believe (most) of the previous reviewers are up to that challenge. There is so much being said in this movie, but it's not a flashing sign in your face. Jim Jarmusch is an excellent artist and filmmaker. I had read some reviews going into it, and they weren't good, but I had/have much trust in the artist. Just a beautiful film and I think the messages or better yet IDEAS presented hear are very important to all of us. The film moves nicely allowing time to think about what you're experiencing and it maintains your interest (that is if you approach the film the right way). This film is so good that I really feel sorry for those that didn't get it, or at least try to.

I like weird Indi flicks. This was by far the worse movie I have ever seen. I did not see Gigli though. Stay away. I wish there was someone I could ask my to get my money back.

Jim Jarmusch has made some great movies. This is not one of them. It is as pretentious as it is boring. Super boring. Super pretentious. It tries so hard it's annoying. Its only redeeming quality is that it's beautifully shot - still not reason enough to sit through this yawner.

It is a nice movie

This is without a doubt...the absolute worst film I have ever had seen. I feel as if I have wasted two precious hours of my life. I am offended that anyone would even consider selling this. If someone offered me money to watch this again, I would run...you should too.
