Entropy

It's refreshing to see a movie like this get made instead of some of the farces we seeing studio heads giving the green light to, today. Kudos to those who both greenlighted it and who made it.

Entropy had it all for me because it was funny, tragic (funny tragic) and dramatic. I felt good throughout the movie and I actually don't know why I didn't know more about it or Phil Joanou. I blame this on the modern day movie machine not being able to properly promote movies that are both creative and eye catching. The scenes from New York's waterfront are in bold and contrasting colors, and it enlivened me further during a recent visit there. Joanou did the right thing film makers are supposed to do, he inspired us to see more into life and art and be entertained in the process. Such is the personal story that is being told in Entropy. After all, I don't think there is a single soul out there that hasn't felt some sort of incident or disaster in our romantic lives, and can't look back at it and laugh at in jest. We are not the most perfect of people, us humans, and all the better we can share the experience!

I give Entropy an "8" just because it was so entertaining and visual, and while there will be many that will call this plainly over-rating, I don't care, I just really enjoyed the movie and could watch it again and again.

If your a U2 fan watch this film. If your a Trainspotting fan watch this film,(Kelly Macdonald has a small part). If your that 1 Lauren Holly fan out there watch this film. If your an average viewer, i advice you to watch this film but don't expect too much.I never heard of this film ,found it at the video store and was able to get it for free. it has really cool camera shots and has a fashionable groove to it however the script is the major disappointment in the film.The dialogue is somewhat cheesy if not pretentious.And the lead character played by Dorf seems to be an obvious replacement for Ewan Mecregor or that guy from Momento. Overall,if you don't have any expectations for this film you wont be disappointed. Don't buy it. Don't rent it. BUT if your buddy has it watch it.

Lots of nice minimal jokes. Surreal amusing look at a young Hollywood director's search for the perfect partner. His life falls apart, in an affable way - he's likable. My scratched rental DVD jammed appropriately enough about half way, where there's a turning point. The picture blocked and jittered (almost a technique used in the movie) and ten minutes later the fun began, for me, with the introduction of the gorgeous Kelly Macdonald. If you've ever felt your work or love life's collapsing, and seen the irony of it, you might enjoy this film. It's a sweet story, nothing gruesome or sleazy. Music's minimal and appropriate. No sentimentality - not a trace. Just a nice bloke trying to find love.

I thought it wasn't a bad romantic comedy. It *was* hip, too, I don't know why the last guy slammed it so hard. The fast-forward driving sequences were cool and the talking/smoking cat had me rolling on the floor laughing. And the story was original and moving. An entertaining 2 hours, good for a date night in, and a lot better than the teenage romance drivel that abounds.

Fine almost-psychedelic-oriented comedy about romance, struggles in art work and just loosing your mind (and finding it back). The meaning of the word tells it all. Dorff offers a great performance. U2's performances in the movie are in the right spots and at the right time. Very experimental yet great results.

Entropy is a must for people who like the first stages of Tarantino, the visual experimentation of Olver Stone and the hilarity of Woody Allen (strange but rather great mix!).

I find it mind blowing that the plot begins with the narrator in an awful shape explaining the story and then gets to meet his own character and the movie goes on!

The ending leaves you with a melancholic feeling because all us who are still attached to this world have experienced the "Entropy" after an intense experience what ever it was.

See you in the journey to forever!
