Navid S @navidshah94 Oct 14 A haunting, dreamlike descent into grief and illusion. Every frame feels drenched in sorrow and unease — Venice becomes a ghost itself, echoing the loss that haunts the characters. I loved how the film blends mystery, tragedy, and the supernatural without ever fully revealing its hand. That ending still lingers — chilling, poetic, and unforgettable.

Great imagery throughout the film as Venice is beautiful, but I truly think the spicy scene is the best part of the movie. Even though they were acting, I envy them, because I still think they were having more fun than I’ve ever had in that setting. Decent to good movie at best, but not a 93%. Donald Sutherland is one of my all-time favorites, as is his son, but this movie, despite his performance, couldn’t even be saved by him. There were some truly captivating scenes in this movie… scenes that were truly gripping and had me on the edge of my seat, but the long lulls in between leave a lot to be desired.

Cutting edge for its time and still a thriller today. See more Smoov T @RT88385141 03/28/2025 It frustrates me that this movie has such critical acclaim when it feels so much weaker than other movies of its generation. I found this a difficult, slow, and obnoxious watch, filled with amateur shaky-cam cinematography and some of the worst audio I've heard in a 70's movie to date. The two principal actors played their parts fine, but the story was weak and the plot meandered from scene to scene, with abundant pauses for "artistic" shots of Venice, which seems to be the primary interest of the DP of this film. The "twist" at the end of this movie wasn't nearly enough to justify all the stupidity that proceeded it, and the movie insisted on spoonfeeding the audience melodramatic flashback shots to try to get its weak point across in lieu of having a stronger script. Additionally, the decision to forego subtitles and have 1/3 of the dialogue of your movie in Italian is particularly strange. Rather than be a way to "put the audience in the same state of confusion" as the protagonist, it just leaves the audience in the dark as the protagonist does in fact already speak Italian. I did not enjoy this movie and I would not watch it again. See more Mark F @RT37250310 11/18/2024 I disliked this the first time round many years ago. It keeps appearing on 'best horror film' lists though so I decided to give it another go. Despite my being older and perhaps more patient with slow pacing, and more appreciative of artistry, my opinion of this film hasn't changed. It's an incredibly slow and dull film with very little plot. Most of the film involves watching the main characters wander around Venice, but shot in a way and at a time of year that makes Venice look miserable. So hard was my second attempt to appreciate this "cinematic masterpiece" that I had to watch it in three parts, I couldn't even get through it in one sitting. The only list it should appear on is the most overrated films of all time. See more Read all reviews
