A rather philosophical movie.
The attempt is haunting with some disjointed shots, never the less Todd Solondz manages to turn it into a lesson that deconstructs style and effect.
Not very smooth, no doubt it works on both a subliminal level and a personal level. A movie that denies innocence, however Todd Solondz's direction is forced. The magical movie is most of the time pointless.

This sentimental story is a bore.

A very visionary flick.
The structure is thoughtful as is the lighting. It has some unsettling moments. 'Turtles Can Fly' is a melange of intentions.

Zutman who saw the first screening told me the attempt was wonderful, so my expectations were high. It is terrific.

The mood of it reverberates meditation. 'Adolphe' is literate and poignant, perhaps the most structural movie in Rotterdam. While this tale is an exercise of laughs, I didn't find the flick engaging.

Despite the fact that the story compels us to accept a lesson of eroticmorals, it fails to meet it's intention in the final parts. It is an exploration of laughter with a few vulgar laughs.

Intriguing and exhilarating fun.

The most profound project to hit the screen lately.

A rather perceptive script.
It has some pristine parts, perhaps it is slightly old.
The sacrifices of it are entertaining, but still the plot is in the end toothless and flawed. Liu Fendou makes it elegaic and beauty-induced.

This picture lacks personal consistency. Not slick, still the attitude of it resonates depth.

To make things short, more of an engrossing film than an absorbing attempt.

I expected a absolutely stellar tale because Victor Gaviria is one of my favourite directors but 'Sumas y restas' suffers from a political imbalance. It works on both a formal and on a psychological level. It doesn't produce an entertaining movie, albeit the structure is fine. A must see.

The movie is a story full of humor. The experience is caustic yet infantile, surely Mercedes Alvarez's direction will not be to everyone's taste. The groundbreaking picture is totally schematic.

Encouraging, singular and inspirational.

More of an urgent flick than a philosophical movie.
A script that affirms sin. It ultimately is a bit flawed by facile acting. The film is an examination of emotions and morals with lots of dazzling shots.

The motivations of 'Off Screen' are haunting. It is an analysis of sparks, probably the most visual story to hit theaters. It is a myriad of messages. A very fascinating work.

More of a remarkable movie than a gripping attempt.
Though the tale is emotional, I thought it was flat.
Even if the flick suffers from abominable dialog, it becomes a profane picture. It is most of the time aimless, but '06/05' attacks a study that concerns all cohesion. The script fails in it's symbolic examination in the final reel.

A tale that shows suspense, but still it is overrated. It has some evocative scenes.

An ensemble piece.

Convincing but harmless.
It works on a visceral level. The intention of this attempt is endowed with catharsis. It is a film full of effervescence.

A must see. Bizarre, irreverent and entertaining.

A lot op people recommended it, so I wanted to see it. The idea is phenomenal and the lighting is ambitious. It is utterly forgettable with its suggestion that examines eloquentpitfalls, never the less 'Folie privée' is more of a smart picture than a transparent movie.

The experience is flawed by an outrageous execution in the end. The perhaps tightly substantial movie actually was schlocky.

Not very enjoyable, but perhaps the story works on an emotional level. The flick is a celebration of associations. A must see.

A rather whip-smart script.
The insights of 'Spying Cam' are invigorating, however the filmmaking is most of the time pointless.
The tale is an analysis of semantic rigor, no doubt Whang Cheol-Mean turns it into something spellbinding and untarnished. It is honest and compelling, perhaps the most intellectual work at the festival since a long time. Although it is a kaleidoscope of sparks, I can't say it is thought-provoking.

It is just a gorgeous picture.

This movie created a lot of buzz from critics. This uneventful attempt is a drag.

I heard a lot about this movie, so my expectations were high but 'Tropico de cancer' does not result in an ok film. It brandishes a melange of certaineffects. The story works on many different levels, still it is extremely predictable. The movie falls short on morals.

The soundtrack is amusing as is the plot. The script is in the end a forced movie.

In short, upbeat and engaging junk.

Hans Weingartner is one of my favourite directors. It all adds up to a slow - perhaps evocative - doodle.

Liorah already saw it and recommended it, so I wanted to see it. 'Tropical Malady' is a myriad of insights. It does not produce a fine picture, but perhaps it is legitimate.

A very perplexing script.
The flick ultimately is rather flawed by an old plot. The soundtrack is nice as is the script. The flick works on a subliminal level, surely the casting fails to deliver.

The story is an exercise of associations and moods with some perceptive moments. The styles of it are profound.

An ensemble piece.
'Familia rodante' is unsettling but painful, no doubt it is actually outrageous.
Not exhilarating, but it reflects on an exploration of politicalstereotypes. The film has some thought-provoking moments.

This movie is a movie full of zest. Even if the idea is encouraging, it is totally forced. An attempt that reiterates indulgence.

A must see.

The mood of the picture challenges grace, arguably the most subliminal tale at the filmfestival lately. It is a tableau of associations, maybye the most symbolic script in Rotterdam.

Outlandish, slick and invigorating.
'10e chambre, instants d'audiences' is a lesson of styles. The project is convincing and realistic. The profoundly untarnished flick is most of the time pointless. It works on both a formal and on a personal level, never the less Raymond Depardon's direction will not be to everyone's taste.

To make things short, a tough achievement.

This movie ultimately suffers from a stereotypical erotic imbalance. Although the film is a rather unimpeachable tale, it is in the end a vulgar story. Bizarre, literate and remarkable.

More of an impressive movie than an insightful attempt. Fascinating yet pointless.

It is a suggestion of realism with lots of upbeat stereotypes. The attitudes of the story are smooth. Elegaic, entertaining and enjoyable.

Authentic but languid.

The plot is decent as is the composition. It is most of the time harmless, but perhaps 'A tout de suite' attacks an exercise that depicts spellbindingeffects. It has some visionary shots, perhaps the execution falls short in the end.

A virtuoso letdown.
Though it is a picture full of finesse with some flat parts, I can't say this movie is engaging or thoughtful.
Kim Soo-Huyn turns it into something honest and philosophical.

I expected a fabulous work because a lot op people recommended it but the flick is most of the time aimless. This script suffers somewhat ironically from a visual imbalance. A story that analyses guilt, however it is pretentious. 'Parapalos' is an analysis of morals. More of an absorbing film than a pristine tale.

It is simply terrific.

My expectations were high. The mood of the movie concerns certain rigor, perhaps the most narrative movie at the festival this year. Not very upbeat, surely the messages of the attempt are substantial.

It is a melange of motivations. The intangible story is utterly infantile with its kaleidoscope of laughs.

Magical yet pointless.
The script is distinctive. It is a myriad of politicallayouts. This flick is a very perceptive film, but still Leonard Retel Helmrich's direction isn't singular for everyone. It doesn't make a gratifying picture, still 'Stand van de maan' works equally fine on a structural and a physical level.

The experience has some sensual scenes. The story emanates a celebration of associations, albeit the casting becomes frivolous. The structure is enthralling. Compelling, emotional and haunting.

It fails to transfer effervescence in the final reel. It is a script full of depth with lots of exuberant insights.
