So anyone else see this gem? godamn this was intense as fuck. any other movies to recommend similar to this?
>>67528502
I've been meaning to watch this shit. But it seemed long and foreign and I've been lazy past couple of days. But I'm ready for something good now
Is it good?
horrible movie, i will always remember this as one of the worst movie ive ever seen
>>67528542
thats what i thought at first. wasnt really interested but when it takes off, it takes off hard. it was one of the most intense movies ive ever seen. fucking roller coaster ride
>>67528577
couldnt disagree with you more
>>67528542
it's terrible. the only thing it has going for it is its gimmick and its qt lead, who makes bad decisions at basically every turn.
>>67528602
Really? Great yeah I'll have to check it out then. I've really heard nothing but good things
pure fucking kino
>>67528502
First half was much better than the second. The first few minutes are so typical of german drinking and party culture and the rest just feels like a wasted opportunity.
The gimmick of the one take wears off after a while.
Watch it muted unless you want the dialogue to rot your brain.
>>67528713
For me the second half is actually a little bit better than the first.
Additionally, what you need to know about it OP, is that it was filmed without any cut.
Yeah
It's pretty good
>>67529001
agree with this.....and the fact that it was all in one take without any gimmicks is impressive as fuck
>>67528635
this is the main thing that makes the whole movie unwatchable, its so bad it hurts. everyone makes such terrible decision that you just cant feel anything for them and every time youre just thinking WELL WHAT DID YOU EXPECT WOULD HAPPEN YOU DUMB FUCK.
How am i supposed to sympathize with victoria if she REFUSES to see any of the red flags that get thrown into her face all the time. she looks like a semi conscious good looking young chick but she basically acts like a crackwhore who just wants to get gangraped. the lowlife people she gets involved with just radiate criminality and multiple times she is free to just get away from these fuckers, but always shes just like DUUUH ok i help you, youre such nice guys.
and dont get me started on the whole dialog shit, improvised broken english nonstop, just painful, and it gets worse if you understand german.
The very definition of gimmick driven meme cinema. One of the worst releases of this year and you hate cinema if you think otherwise. Every bit as bad as Hardcore Henry will be. A true debasement of the medium, keep your video game flicks to yourself /v/.
>>67529085
yeah it's awful. the screenplay treats her like a retard who can't think for herself. then whenthe main guy diesit's like ohhh noooo she reaaaalllly caaared even though she had no reason to whatsoever, and in fact he made her life shit.
It's the worst kind of cinematic fraud, hidden behind a gimmick that's so-so at best. I would rather they have written an actually believable plot that had composed cuts and well framed shots rather than this amateur mess.
>>67529085
the dialogue is authentic which together with the camera work makes it more like you are there and it's real which i think they were going for here.
You are spot on about the bad decisions though. That shit was infuriating.
i think a lot of you guys missed the point on this one. if it was "smarter" it would be cinema. the fact that there are "flaws" and stupidity is kind of the idea, it's about LIVING and embracing the essence of the experience and all the mistakes that come with it.
that's what makes it kino.
>>67529197
>>67529226
the gimmick was fine but unnecessary, overall the production value was fine but the dialog and scrips really kills it, yes the german dialog is authentic but if you would compare it to american "authentic" dialog it would be the niggerest ghetto talk you can imagine, it made them look like high schoolers.
>>67528577
same
Maybe you just had to be in the right mood for the film. Seems like we have two extremes, those who love it...
(>>67528502
>>67528602
>>67529001)
... and those who hate it
(>>67528635

>>67529092)
I loved it. Even though some of their decisions might have been dump, the film is authentic af and perfectly shows the typical, naive, foreign girl in a big city. For the Germans and /mu/ fags on here: "Ariane" by KIZ is a song that matches perfectly to this topic.
>>67529662
Cinema lovers hate it. Video game enablers love it.
Which makes sense since it isn't a film at all.
I kept waiting for all of the guys to gang rape the stupid twat. She was dumb enough to let it happen, too.
>>67529707
youre fucking cancer.
Still havent watched it, even though I drank a beer with one of the sound editors a week before it released and he highly recommended it, said it was one of the best things to come out of germany this millenium
which isnt hard because the last ten years were utter shit
>>67529764
Says the /v/edditor lapping up his IMDB video gamecore trashflick
>>67529804
Don't let some anonymous internet twat rustle your jimmies. Once he sees he is getting to you, he'll just continue.
>>67529804
keep going princess. youre adorable you little internet gangster.
>>67529849
No one can get to me. I am "high cinema" made flesh.
>mfw americans hate it only because they can't grasp the idea that in europe you actually aren't likely to get raped and shot if you hang out with strangers for two hours
>>67529769
Maybe best thing since Lives of Others but that is more a statement about the quality of german movies and less about this one in particular.
>>67530000
>Lives of Others
yeah that was good, obviously a few gems came out aswell, but they usually didnt get much attention as opposed to the other 98% consisting of Til Schweiger Sepia shit and Schweighöfer Romcoms

Haneke is German.
this blue and orange meme has gone too far
>>67530096
>Haneke is German
no he's austrian, theres a difference
you're not wrong though, he produced some films in germany
>>67530086
Goodbye Lenin
Downfall
Baader Meinhof
Maybe the white ribbon but that one was really forgettable.
Can't really think of anything else from this century.
>>67530193
The whole flick is like all the hot trendy millennial memes thrown into a blender to appeal to as many video game players as possible, even down to the poster.
The level of pandering is more akin to literal pornography than to any kind of respectable cinema.
>>67530298
baader meinhof complex was awesome
It's stylistic and entertaining enough with so many great moments that I can forgive the partly silly story.
A good movie.
Didn't like it at all, the second half was plain stupid.
>>67528542
Half the film is in English, since Victoria is from Spain or something.
>>67530298
Die dunkle Seite des Mondes came out recently still havent seen it, hope it'll be good
and colonia dignidad looks pretty neat aswell
but there has not been a single masterpiece since maybe the 90's
>>67530298
Forgot The wave.
But outside of historical movies it seems like Germany is just void of good ideas and/or directors.
>>67530298
Unsere Mütter unsere Väter?
And even though it's low comedy I liked der Schuh des Manitu
>>67530602
That was a series not a movie. Haven't seen Deutschland 83 yet though. They are both historical as well.
Schuh des Manitu was good beacuse it was the first in that style. Every ridiculous comedy movie after that sucked ass.
>>67530713
>That was a series not a movie
I'd have to argue with that, it was a three parted movie for TV, but I guess that qualifies it as a series
>Every ridiculous comedy movie after that sucked ass
I liked der Wixxer, never watched it sober though and I love Christoph Maria Herbst
Baader Mainhof and The Wave are trash flicks though.
