Blobbo X It's one of a kind at the very least. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/12/23 Full Review John F life-changing watch, all fans of cinema should watch this film Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review isla s This is a bleak and sobering watch - its quite thoughtful. At the end it turns somewhat surreal and I suppose it has an arty element to it. Its quite hard to describe in any detail but I certainly wouldn't recommend it if your looking for something to cheer yourself up because this is quite, as I say, a sobering and even grim watch. I think the central performance by Bruno S. was quite good. He plays a quite detached individual well. There is some poignant dialogue and if the director is one you enjoy (Warner Herzog) then I'd recommend it. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review georgan g So many aspects of this film were engaging. Reality v daydream fantasy, relationship that are good AND bad, acting v the non-actors playing themselves and comedic v tragedy. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Is it possible to envision a stranger depiction of the American dream gone astray than that which is depicted in Stroszek? "Stroszek" is unorthadox to the extreme, daring us to anticipate any of its entirely unforeseeable developments. There is an extemporaneous quality to it evoking a sensibility that deftly navigates the boundary between the fantastical and the absurd, leaving us ever cocking an eyebrow at the sheer strangeness of this ambitious and yet alien experience. We are enveloped in a journey that has a peculiarly home-made quality despite its undeniably surreal transitions, and we will be hard-pressed to account for a more memorable experience than this one. Say what one will about this film, its imagination is boundless, just as its willingness to adhere to its own indiosyncratic sense of itself both stupifies and charms us. Never will one encounter a film with a more memorable ending than this one, properly serving the magical oddity which constitutes the beginning, middle, and everything in between. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Not one of the better Herzog movies, to say the least. Pretty annoying and silly. Not sure what the hell he was trying to get at here, besides nihilism or something about how it sucks to be poor and stupid. It's a movie for hipsters to convince themselves it's great and anyone who can't see that has no true grasp of cinema. Yeah, that wacky ending is something, but sure as hell not enough to save this drowning witch. That ship arrived too late and at the wrong dock. 2.8 stars Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
