Holy Motors 2012

It was a wannabe Holy Mountain that missed the point. The title implies that it's supposed to be a modern version, but it seems as though the director thought The Holy Mountain amounted to nothing other than "derp so random and weird". The main actor was fantastic, but the film itself was absolute garbage aside from some impressive cinematography here and there. The few amounts of symbolism and social commentary were embarrassingly obvious and forced ("beauty! weird!"). The musical scene was absolutely horribly delivered. It was a good movie for the first 20 minutes or so, but it wound up getting so much worse as it went along. If it wasn't clearly trying to be a Holy Mountain remake then I might have liked it better, but either way it wouldn't be anything that I could recommend.

I really don't know what to think about this movie. I don't even know if I liked it or not.

WTF did I just watch? This was the stupidest piece of "artistic" crap I've EVER seen.

This movie was randomly selected. With no idea what to expect, it provided a substantial amount of what the fuck moments. I would recommend it, without going more into details, to everyone open for strangeness.

Strange movie, I liked it a lot but I feel it's very personal, give it a try...

A dreamy journey into the consciousness of a human being. We are unable to distinguish the real from the fictional, and Carax plays with our expectations in a Lynchian way (e.g., the Club Silencio in Mullholand Drive). In the end, we are left with the possibility to connect emotionally with the various masks, a task I found hard, unfortunately.

Holy shit!

I can't say that I understood the meaning of every single thing, theres to many symbolisms hiding in it and sometimes can be so bizarre! Above all it's a film about great performances.

I am sure that Holy Motors will definitely have an impact on you and at the end you can take your own interpretation of the story, if there's one...

Like Last Year at Marienbad it is something that can't really be described and isn't for everyone. I can't remember another film where an actor was asked to play such an incredible range.

Some thoughts: This movie is illogical. This movie is artistic. This movie is engaging in the way you're grasping for logic, but almost justifiably frustrating in how it gives you no clarity. But maybe I'm just looking too hard. In any case, I can't really rate this movie, or artistic movies like it because the standard I use for ratings is based on logical plot and characters. This movie is in a category of its own, but I did enjoy the experience.
