The almost samurai-like discipline of these performances, compounded by the film’s gruelling, dead-air aesthetic, gives them a non-mimetic grandeur.

Silliness of this purity is rare.

“Ebony and Ivory” is one of the dumbest movies I’ve ever seen.

To watch the work of Jim Hosking is to endure the kind of torture that the Cenobites promised; for some there is only excruciating pain, but others will find great pleasure in it. Ebony & Ivory defies ratings.

Rated: 3/5

The film is as exhausting as it is silly, even at just 85 minutes long, but there’s something to be admired about it.

Rated: 3/5

There’s surreal, and then there’s whatever this film is. There is something admirable about a movie that is so gleefully silly.

Rated: 6/10

Greasy Strangler A++, Tropical Cop Tales A++, Beverly Lufftlynn D-. Ebony and Ivory lives somewhere in between the highs and lows. It’s a bit masterbatory which I would think I’d love from Hoskins orevious genius, but this film is too repetitive, slow and tries your patience in every scene. I appreciate the film. Glad I saw it. Very cool to see a film with 2 actors in one location. Looks and sounds fantastic! But there’s not enough here. No plot, not a lot of anything. Will keep seeing Hoskins films. Fan for life. Would love to collab with him. This film is a bit more of a long short then a full concept feature.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
