In This Gray Place

It's not often a movie comes around that explores deeper issues of human nature than base impulses. Far too often we get "blow 'em up" films with little sustenance. This film is a discussion of synchronicities disguised as an action film. It's akin to Malik, Tarkovsky, and in some senses Kubrik. This is a movie that actively engages its audience in a freeform thought experiment of fate or freewill, and ultimately allows the experiences of its characters to decide for themselves. In a layered conversation throughout the run time it eventually decides that while there is no definitive answer the way in which the characters, and ultimately we the audience, rationalize our behaviours will effect us all.

I was amazed with the rating 7.7 that made me really watched this.. but was grrrrrr.. Really a waste of time!!

It's funny how two people can watch the same film and come away having two completely views on what they just watched. Me: it was a haunting and beautiful love story with perfect music, and stunning cinematography. It was a story that dealt with boundless love, deep regrets and desperation. My husband: it was about a guy stuck in a bathroom for two hours.

I regret having even dared to watch it. Absolutely awful

I rated 7, even though my friends wouldn't give even 3. It is really great Movie...if only you assume that the whole room and all characters are the result of one person's imagination. The whole set up is a mental projection, blocks that we create in our heads. We stuck, procrastinate and it's difficult to get us out there. This Movie is exactly about this. Did you notice that there were no real people except main character, we saw recollections of memories but did not see those people in real action. His Girlfriend were appearing as a memory and projection, his friends and etc. Only Policemen at the end, as a Symbol of outside intervention to help that guy to get out his mental blocks (which can be depression, disease, etc.)

Once you view from here, the Movie makes big sense but if just as a sequence of events that really were happening, it is a disaster Movie.
