#Elle Verhoeven's return is dark, comic, brutal and seductive, a twisted tale locked down by a sublime Isabelle Huppert #cannes2016
Verhoeven is literal reddit satire dogshit
ahah time for predictions.
Palme d'or : Toni Erdmann
Grand Prize : Sierra Nevada
Best actor : Adam Driver
Best actress : Sonia Braga
Jury prize : The Neon Demon
Best director : Olivier Assayas
Best screenplay : Julieta
Camera d'or : Raw
I believe this year will be bold
FilmLand Empire @FilmLandEmpire
A spider web of dark humour and gleeful perversion. Reminded me of Verhoeven's 80's films, loved it! #Cannes2016
(Running out with adjectives with Isabelle Huppert! Let's just say her performance in ELLE is one of her finest)
(The Lumière audience laughed a lot, even spontaneously applauding a couple of times)
Marc v.d. Klashorst @MarcVDKlashorst
Elle: twisted, trashy, rivals Toni Erdmann for funniest entry. Intentionally. Huppelt superb #cannes2016
Charles Bramesco @intothecrevasse
ELLE: I found nothing funny or titillating about Verhoeven's playful treatment of rape. The family stuff could've sustained this on its own.
Benjamin Lee @benfraserlee
Elle is an entirely heartless & wildly, staggeringly perverted thriller. Probably the most genuine fun I've had this festival #Cannes2016
Gregory Ellwood @TheGregoryE
Isabelle Huppert is fucking fantastic in Paul Verhoveen's very entertaining if not slightly long Elle. Could be nice art house hit. #cannes
(One of the coolest things about Elle is Huppert is playing a character 15 years younger than her own age and it totally works #cannes)
Ken Adams @TaybackX
ELLE: I was promised a total knockout, and that's exactly what I got. Twisted Verhoeven-sequel trash of the best kind. BRAVO. #Cannes2016
(And Legend Huppert fucking slays the shit out of the devious camp given to her. #Cannes2016 #Elle)
Alexandra Zawia @alexandrazawia
#Elle (Paul Verhoeven) is pure genius #Cannes2016
Alex Billington @firstshowing
Elle - Verhoeven reigns! Isabelle Huppert is so badass in this amusingly devious French sex thriller. Sooooo twisted, so crazy, but so good.
(No doubt about it some people are going to despise Elle and it's twisted, devious characters, but Huppert totally totally owns this role)
Screen Comment @SCREENCOMMENT
#Elle fun watch but the ranking, the status quo concerning the other films, will remain unchanged probably #Cannes2016
Nicholas Bell @RagingBells
Elle is a perverse return to form for Verhoeven. Huppert is fantastic-it was everything I was hoping for. #IsabelleHuppert #Cannes2016 #Elle
Xan Brooks @XanBrooks
Paul Verhoeven's Elle closes #Cannes2016 competition by whisking us down to hell. Delirious, provocative, pitch-black comedy. Huppert superb
no cannes do @whocaresdad
#Elle is the best film of the fest. I'm in love. ������@Festival_Cannes #Cannes2016
Robbie Collin @robbiereviews
Elle (Verhoeven): the Starship Troopers of rape/revenge thrillers. A needling, ingenious challenge. God-level Huppert. #Cannes2016
(NB: be wary of superficial takes on this, of which I'm guessing there will be a few)
Ben Croll @becroll
ELLE: they saved the best for last.
(hardly the rape/revenge thriller it's made out to be. More interested in being a pitch perfect black comedy, a belly laugh every 5 min)
Jason Ooi @JasonOfOoi
#Elle is a haunting relationship thriller. Fantastic performances, gripping, and perhaps the festival's funniest too. #cannes2016
Peter Bradshaw @PeterBradshaw1
Eszterhas meets Chabrol in Paul Verhoeven's Elle: horribly incorrect, with glacial anti-clerical satire. An unexpected hit at #Cannes2016
Jason Gorber @filmfest_ca
Verhoeven's tale of violation is so very French, so very dark and funny, so very excellent #Elle #cannes2016
Nikola Grozdanović @nikgroz
ELLE: Hilarious, demented & gender-psychological to the bone. Leave it to Verhoeven to make a genre film with SO much to unpack. #Cannes2016
Matthew Anderson @MattAndersonBBC
Saw Paul Verhoeven's #Elle at #Cannes2016. It was totally ridiculous and it the worst possible taste. Loved it
Diego Lerer @dlerer
Paul Verhoeven film was the perfect closing of the competition. A great, perverse, comic thriller. #Cannes2016
>>69804164
OP puts tons of links to rating and you still prefer to trust this shit site
>>69808014
RT is an aggregator, not a 'shit site'. All of them are pretty valid as parameters.
>>69808042
you don't need an additionnal aggregator when you have OP's links.
>>69808140
You may not 'need', but they don't do any harm.
>>69808215

>>69808198

Yes they do if they include shit critics in the aggregate
>>69807984
>>69807952
Nice, is Verhoeven back?
>>69808288
By your criteria, so all of OP's links are pure garbage too, considering they are full of 'shit' critics that you easily would disagree with. Your point and complaint is moot.
I'm happy that Elle was good, but I don't understand the hype surrounding Verhoeven. His last good films was Starship Troopers 20 years ago.
>>69808215
why are non-actors allowed at Cannes?

ELLE: Starts suspenseful, turns silly, but Verhoeven thriller powered throughout by Isabelle Huppert's furious energy. #Cannes2016
John Bleasdale @drjonty
Paul Verhoeven returns to #Cannes with Elle, a witty well-made but ultimately toxic rape comedy @CineVue
Fabien Lemercier @FabienLemercier
Elle by Paul Verhoeven #Cannes2016 Competition = 3,5/5
Adam Batty @adamhopelies
Thoughts on Verhoeven: Totally Indifferent.
Anne Thompson @akstanwyck
In Elle, despite Paul Verhoeven's attempts at a stupid violent sex fantasy, the great Isabelle Huppert somehow rises above the silliness.
Mike D'Angelo @gemko
Elle (Verhoeven): 63. Thought I had this pegged as a deliciously perverse ode to embracing one's true nature. Then the ending befuddled me.
David Verdeure @davidverdeure
From rape culture to Gamergate, Verhoeven's sexual panoply Elle (#Cannes2016, B+) favors provocation over profundity but is superior pulp.
>>69804164
>Paterson
>What a pleasure... that Driver not only delivers-giving a quiet, soulful, kindhearted performance that's my favorite thing he's done thus far-but that Jarmusch's film is as wise, winning, and surprisingly moving as it is

What the fuck doesn't get boo'd at cannes? Do those hip french faggots like anything? Maybe if you got all of their wives on stage and had big black french bulls come out and pump them full of culturally enriched semen they'd give a standing ovation

Remember to set your computer clock to french timezone if you want to see the closing ceremony tomorrow. If not the stream won't work
>>69810403
Yeah, last year this was a huuuuge pain in the ass. Had to do the manual work at least 6 times. However, if there's a youtube stream would that still be a problem?
>>69810662

I don't dislike it, it's just not that great. I prefer more crazy Verhoeven from his Robocop days. Hollow Man was genuinely bad, though.

>>69819601
Wat? I thought competition films weren't eligible for that. Anyway, it's a comedy, isn't it? No chance in hell it will win the Palme.
>>69819601
Well, considering all the critics' polls, it was obvious it would win. It's not any surprise.
>>69819795
You are new to Cannes, yes? That is not at all how it works. In fact, critics' first choice is almost guaranteed not to win.
>>69819855
That's wrong. Critics' favorites often gets the Palme.
Does Verhoeven stands any chance to win the Palm? Critics reception seems pretty good...

Toni Erdmann still seems the heavy favourite in terms of critics' reception, but Elle shot up straight to #2 for most people. It's #1 on the Apichat.
FIPRESCI Cannes Competition winners
2015: Son of Saul
2014: Winter Sleep (Palme)
2013: Blue is the Warmest Colour (Palme)
2012: In the Fog
2011: Le Havre

2014: Goodbye to Language, Winter Sleep (Palme went to Winter Sleep, Grand Prix to Godard)
2013: Blue, Inside Llewyn Davis (Palme went to Blue, Grand Prix to Coens)
2012: Amour, Holy Motors (Palme went to Amour)
2011: Le Havre, Kid with a Bike, Anatolia (Palme went to Tree of Life, Grand Prix to Kid with a Bike + Anatolia)

>>69802956
honestly, i kind of agree with Dolan on this. these flash-reviews posted minutes after a film has been screened are more akin to gossip than journalism. then again, calling a film reviewer a journalist is a bit of a stretch. a first impression reaction is devoid of analysis and contemplation, the very principles of critical thinking. i think film reviewers should let a film percolate in their minds for a couple of days before writing their reviews. a visceral reaction does not a worthy review make. my two cents.
ps. i write this having never seen a Dolan movie.

There's a big chance that Elle gets the Palm d'Or.
Toni Erdmann could get the Grand Prize, Jury Prize for Paterson or Sierranevada, Best Actor: Adam Driver, Best Actress: Sonia Braga or Isabelle Huppert.
>>69821376
That's why they write reviews afterward.
>>69821451

top qt director t b h
>>69821790
yes, based on their initial reaction after screening a film in a very biased atmosphere. i mean, i give a filmmaker the benefit of the doubt any day before a reviewer. hence, i often do not read reviews until after i've seen a film, and most of the time all i see are plot breakdowns instead of critical analysis of what made a narrative work or not work.
>>69822035
You must be reading the wrong writers.
>>69822162
possibly so, i'll admit. can you recommend a couple?
>>69821956
YOU JUST KNOW
>>69822035
I think the plot breakdown is a very real criticism which is a big problem in mainstream reviews across all narrative media, similarly I am much more inclined towards critical discourse. As an experiment I once wrote 2 reviews on letterboxd, one was short and mostly generic while the other was a brief but indepth look at one theme in the film (of course none of this was controlled and isn't a real experiment or anything but both were pretty well known arthouse) and the former got more likes than the latter even though I consider the latter a better piece of writing and analysis. I guess most people just want generalised discourse which they can manipulate to reflect their own thoughts.
