Hamza V Everything about the movie from the storytelling and acting to the direction and editing is brilliant. The silence and ambiguity are almost haunting. To me, Denis is attempting to critique the oversimplified narratives about life and conflict. What hurts most while watching it is its realness. It's a hard watch but is truly worth the time and effort. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/08/25 Full Review Zane T A very powerful movie that is quiet but heartfelt and tragic. Anyone who says Canada can't make Hollywood movies or Hollywood type movies should watch this and rethink their words.

"1+1=1" "Love you, Your mother" Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/02/25 Full Review thiago s Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são mais ou menos, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajudou a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom, com um plot twist chocante. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/29/25 Full Review Karina S É bem ruim. É bem ruim. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/24/25 Full Review Hesam T Denis Villeneuve’s Incendies struck me as a film of commanding craft—assured direction, striking compositions, and a tightly wound narrative that never loses control. Lubna Azabal gives a magnetic performance, anchoring a story that unfolds like a ferocious family mystery across eras and a war-torn landscape. Layer by layer, it reveals brutal truths with a quiet restraint, culminating in a cathartic finale reminiscent of Greek tragedy. The images linger, and its focus on religion, birthright, and cycles of violence gives the film a disturbing urgency, suggesting that bearing witness is itself an act of compassion. Yet I also found the story implausible, stacked with contrivances that edge into punishment and manipulation, as if tragedy were being ladled on for effect. It works better as a stylized, poetic meditation than as believable drama. Even so, its impact is undeniable. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/17/25 Full Review Read all reviews
