Selvmordsturisten

Boring...weird...slow...even weirder...at the end you ask yourself, wtf?!

Kinda claustrophobic, mesmirizing start, but later on this movie looses some of it's mystery and with it some of it's spark.

The story is in essence quite dark and depressing, because we see how a man is slowly loosing grip on life after he has been diagnosed with a terminal disease.

However depressing in nature the subject of this story about dying might be, it is photographed in a tranquil, peaceful way and the acting is true to life and touching to watch.

Not for those who want to see a cheery picture, but for those who can stumach a true slowburning drama about how to deal with knowing that you are about to die soon...

Woefully slow. The movie doesn't really get going until the last 30 minutes or so and to call it a slow butn would be disingenuous because the fuse isn't lit until the 3rd act. This movie suffers like so many before it that try to be poignant but end up being self indulgent and BORING. A movie should make you think, so should a articulate lecture. However, a movie, unlike a lectur, should be entertaining.

,,, it's just that it is sooo slow. It's an expansion on what Sol goes through in his last moments of life, when he decides to check out, in Soylent Green, with a dash of Carousel and wanting more life, like the runners in Logans' Run,,, and a dash of Roy Batty from Blade Runner added into the script. Yep, his brain tumor might explain some of the more disturbing occurences and you have to question what version of reality is transpiring. It IS disturbing to think that this might be the way our lives end up. We all want to die peacefully in out sleep with out boots on, but, we can see right now that this will not be the case for many people. This film is going to make a lot more people think about that possibility.

This film blesses the art of cinema with script, editing, cinematography, carefully selected plans, reasonable musical accompaniment, no chattering lines, and great actings. Film's poetic narrative allowing to make completely different inferences by recalling the viewer memory in every different plan, whose location is changed in fiction. For a long time I have not witnessed such a qualified and well-designed storytelling. Spectacular!
