Wonderland

This is unusual. It seems disjointed, for sure. I suppose it would make sense to me if I were Swiss and experienced actions that might affect that society. I didn't find the usual empathy for the characters that show up in most movies regarding some type of disaster. I have no doubt that it has some philosophical meaning apparent to Europeans. Is the storm societal change that people face? Characters handled their 'doom' predicament in various ways: self destruction, sensual parties, self destruction, attempts of escape, masturbation, etc. I could barely stay with the flick, but I did, just to see what happened. To me, it was just odd, but one of the girls was cute!

Dark moody and no fun it makes me wonder if any Swiss are happy. I wish I could take my time back and suggest you avoid this one.

A gigantic strom developing over Switzerland works as a backgroung for a boring, uninspired and badly written film that slowly crawls to an end that should have arrived at least 1 hour earlier. Photography is ok, but that´s all. Avoid it.

Despite being slow sometimes (it may have been the reason for so many bad rating for this nice film), this is a very innovative and clever film from Switzerland. Indeed, it is a movie that criticizes the country's comfortable place and widespread cynical positions throughout history until nowadays. Besides the social political issues, it is also an interesting film in the way it has been conceived and organized: made by ten different directors, it does not show the bizarre upcoming storm that will devastate Switzerland (an no other place!) from a single perspective, but showing several interesting characters, such as a couple in crisis, a football ultra who supports Young Boys, a Croatian cab driver, his family and a rich passenger, a manager of a supermarket dealing with chaos due the fear of shortage, a mother and her daughter, followers of a fascist agitator, a policewoman with a taint in her recent past, a worker in an insurance company, an old woman who lives alone, and so forth. The flaw in the film, more serious than an initial sluggish pace, is that, among these various parallel stories (some o them quite violent), not all of them are well developed and some of them have confusing or non-existent ends.

Starting with a sex scene the way this movie does shows me no one has confidence in this movie so they need to do something to grab your attention. I hate when movies rely on cheap nudity to get attention. And they'd be right to have no confidence in this film. The characters are so uninteresting I've forgotten them all already.

The other great crime is the fact they have made impending disaster in this film boring. It takes a rare Lack of talent to make incoming disasters boring but they've achieved it here.

Not a good look for Switzerland here, all I can think is they're boring but hedonistic. Don't waste your time.
