Invictus_88 Foetus In Fetu Sunshine is crap. Tried to be deep and intellectual. Failed. Characters are caricatures. Symbollism largely meaningless, etc.
They do tend to when the premise of the film itself ostensibly is the observation of character interactions under a particular set of circumstances.
And I don't know that it started out fine. I immediately had to suspend disbelief actively for the premise, and I did that on the understanding that this would be paid off with either a thrilling plot or commentary on the nature of humanity, which never happened. I totally agree that it appeared like that was going to happen, and it could have happened - but it didn't.
Invictus_88 It was disappointing because of the downhill trend, but it started out fine. I would simply have liked an improving rather than a collapsing line of progress.
It wasn't unwatchable, but I wouldn't watch it again. I did enjoy it, but for instance I felt that a lot of the shot construction and visuals were for the sake of being pretty, characters existed just to be and plot was for plot's sake - which would have been fine, but it alluded to a deeper meaning when there was none. |

I didn't know what their own premise was, I was just assuming from the philosophically-leaning trailer I saw. So, if I was wrong then fair enough.
I'd not watch it again either, I'd still find myself wishing for more, but this time I'd not even have the hope that it might fulfil my wishes. It was very pretty, though. |

Boolean Julian Boolean Julian Death in Venice is probably my favourite film ever. Okay it's not strictly speaking a British film, but it does star Dirk Bogarde. Seriously, watch this and weep.
I wept.
