Glasshouse

I know they tried hard and great stuff and all that for the effort. But really, this was like wading through quicksand. Apparently this was filmed during the pandemic, and I'm not sure if this made a difference - everyone seemed to be sleep walking. Perhaps the entire crew thought they were in the Glasshouse too.

In short, a family is trapped in a Glasshouse after an apocalyptic event, and kill anyone who seeks refuge there. The bodies are germinated and used for their crops. Lots of rituals.

Not sure where the water came from. There are also no animals.

Of course, they're all bonkers, and the arrival of a stranger sets off another sequence of bonkers events, but reaallly slooowly.

There's a greenhouse, an oasis, behind the trees; it's a verdant paradise that has one bee; a cornucopia of pleasure; overflows with fleshy treasure; recycling and reclaiming endlessly.

A variation on a familiar scene, the performances are great but the intent and interpretation, along with some sizable pot holes and inconsistencies leaves it a little underwhelming.

I give this 10 stars because not only did the ending completely bring everything together the way a great movie does..it had me guessing the entire movie.. that right when you think you figured it out, bam there's another curve right up until another twist! I only wish one our movie streaming apps like Netflix or Hulu would showcase this movie.. I would recommend all the fans of fantasy ditopian movies watch this mind bending art of a movie!! Other then Antebellum I don't think there has been a movie with such an amazing twist and shocking end and movies like this are rare nowadays. This intellectual creative story is a must see!!! Nothing and everything will surprise you!!

This is a movie primarily about a small group of people and their interactions and relationships, essentially a psychodrama, with the key contextual element that everyone has some degree of memory loss. Given that, I didn't find it slow or boring, and I thought the execution was fine.

In a post-apocalpytic setting where there is a toxin in the atmosphere which causes memory loss, there has been a greenhouse which can produce enough oxygen to support at most six people, who belong to what is some combination of cult and family, where the six people with partial memory loss maintain their perceived grasp on reality by assiduously perpetuating an origin story about themselves whose veracity becomes progressively more apparent over the course of the movie.

Love, angst, autism, sex; You know, the usual apocalypse stuff. You would think everyone would just be happy to be alive, but it seems everyone involved has a lot to get worked up about.
