CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Numerootno A story that's too fascinating to pass by...
Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
kwfnewyork I just want to warn anyone thinking of buying or renting this movie. Don't waste your money. Buy or rent something worth watching instead. I rented this piece of junk thinking it was going to be good based on the actors in the movie. The main actors in the movie are much better in other works that they've done and I don't understand why they would want to act in this waste of time. I guess they need the money.I'm telling you, this movie makes no sense from beginning to end. When it was over I sat there thinking, "You've got to be kidding me" "That's it? That's the end?" "Where is the explanation of what the Hell was going on in this movie?" Now, I know that it's supposed to take place in the future, but it's only the year 2021. I don't think that in the next 10 to 12 years people are going to become so uncaring that they will walk over dead people in the street without even giving it a second thought. Nor do I think that even the dreaded "Global Warming" will cause people to start flying or fresh water in a glass to freeze to solid ice while the rest of the room is still warm.I've read some of the other reviews on this board about this movie and they've tried to sound professional and said things like "it's a beautiful poem" etc. but I'm telling you this movie is just plain dumb.You've been warned.
stavr0ghin I can't in any way comprehend how can someone say that he/she can't understand this film. If you have more than 16 years and you didn't understand this movie than you should never touch a film from now on and comment on IMDb as if your opinion matters in some way.This movie is a ultimate work of art.. a masterpiece. If you didn't understand it than make the good choice.. watch it again and again and again, until you will get it you **** or kill yourself.. Because of you this film has a overall note of 5 and this kind of films will never be made because you ***** represent the majority, the public...Whatever, if your IQ is higher than 5 than go see this movie. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.11 out of 10. a masterpiece
paul2001sw-1 Lars von Trier, who invented the minimalist film movement Dogme, followed up his own Dogme film with a musical. It's a sign that the ideas of the movement sprung from a general interest in how films are made, rather than a commitment to minimalism per se; and the same thing can also be seen in Thomas Vinterberg's post-Dogme film 'It's All About Love', which does have a certain minimalist aesthetic, but which is made with all of the tools available to the modern film-maker that the Dogme movement so consciously abandoned. And in spite of it's dreadfully uninspiring title, it turns out to be an interesting movie: stylised, beautifully constructed, and engagingly mysterious. Vinterberg proves himself to be a master of mood, creating scenes of a tender, haunting beauty but backed by a vague sense of menace. But judged purely as a thriller, the film is less good, because the menace and mystery never coalesce into something more certain, what we have here is images of a storyline, but no real story: things happen in sequence, and sometimes we are allowed to understand why, but it's unclear that there is a larger whole waiting to be discovered. Instead, we are presented with the illusion of fragments, beautifully executed (and Claire Daines in particular plays her role well), but without any necessary (visible or invisible) connectedness. The overall result could not be called great; but it is ambitious, distinctive, and directed with no little skill.
Wendell Ricketts ... if it's impossible to understand what happens in the film? Imagine Ms. Tuschinky's 10th grade film class in some snooty private high school for the arts in Connecticut. Imagine the year-end project of two of the "brightest" (and most insufferable) students in the school. Imagine the script written by their depressed "artistic" friend who knows _Last Year at Marienbad_ by heart and has posters of Lina Wertmuller glued to the ceiling of his bedroom.That's "It's All about Love." Pretentious, incomprehensible, incoherent, illogical, irrational, and spastic. I've almost worn out my thesaurus except for the one that sums it all up: Stupid. (I'm leaving out the bad words because they'd certainly be censored anyway.) This is an _Eyes Wide Shut_ ripoff, and if a person had a brain in his head he might well think twice before copying a film that was, itself, a Bleeding Mess. How this piece of Eurotrash found its way to Sundance is a Miracle of the Universe, but suffice it to say that Thomas Vinterberg was the star child of The National Film School of Denmark in 1993.'Nuff said.
