Anyone saw it? I couldn't find a topic about it,which, I thought, was quite surprising. It's been a long time since I was so impressed by a movie. It builds up, starts very very slow,(almost boring) untill it explodes and turns into a nightmare. There's a lot of violence shown, but that wasn't exciting, rather shocking. Maybe the most spectacular thing about this movie is the emotions in your head while watching! I've never seen anything sick like this. (and that's why I loved it so, because it made me feel things I never felt before) Also, the camera and editing were briliant! and so was the photography and the script! RECOMMENDED!!! (but not for your pleasure) Read some about it on the official site! |

finaly after so many hollywood years Gus van Sant doesn't make crap anymore. They say that his other new film Gerry, is even more mind-dazzling. |

There are all these really long shots of people going from point a to point b. Like a scene will end and then follow a character for the next 3 or 4 minutes, showing the back of their head and shoulders centered in the frame. I'd say shots like this take up about half the film. It's a really interesting way to submerse you in the environment. You spend 95% film sinking deeper and deeper into the setting, which makes the natural-by-means-of-amateurism acting much easier to swallow, and the finale that much more powerful. Best picture and Best Director at Cannes 2003 for a good reason. |

yeah i saw it a couple of weeks ago at the dendy cinemas over here (they show all the art house and foreign films...!) anyway, it was a really powerful film, excelent come back to the indie scene for Gus. But a lot of people in the cinema came out complaining about "lack of story" "what was that guy doing when..." and all this stuff, they just couldnt get their heads around it. But anyway, it was really excellent, but it isnt for everyone. And yeah it was very emotional, and well directed. It is almost boring at first, but its all part of setting the scene and helping you to know the characters. But i wont give anything away, but i recommend seeing it. Do you guys have cinemas around your areas that show all the art house films etc? Because im so glad that we have Dendy cinemas here, otherwise there would be no where to see all these great films on a big screen. |

i love beethoven.... forever. both tracks i can play back to back with my eyes closed. i never understood "benny" though. other than that... i'd love to understand the mentality behind it all. what makes these people do things like so? |

i really loved elephant but found gerry pretty boring (but really boring, missing "characters", screenplay, ideas behind nice images) but yeah, elephant is wiked (nice soundtrak btw) |

Benny provided a refreshing twist to the movie. The audience thinks of him as a hero, walking through the flames, helping a girl escape out a window and finally approaching one of the armed young men. But in Elephant's realistic portrayal of a school shooting, there are no amazing superheroes; anyone, like Benny, can die.... IMO |
