Perfect

"PERFECT" 5/10 🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠 This very slow and somewhat demonic Sci-fi feature set in the future about a young man attending a rehabilitation retreat for a mysterious condition is visually shot in the style of a music video. And not just the models on parade or the heavy shadowy scenes filmed under vibrant florescent lights or the many extended clips utilizing slow motion every aspect appears to be one big fever dream. The acting also feels as though I can't give it a true grade because I just didn't see enough of it, like actors portraying a scenario in a rap video it looks great but who can say watching 60fps through a macro lens slowed to half speed. The pace of this film lends to the psychological horror that unfolds but as much as they reveal graphically theres equal amounts that are abstract and hard to understand. I give this movie credit for it's artistic effort but the whole movie felt like traveling through a worm hole with no idea of what's up or down by the time it's over. Under developed is an understatement here even the few people who appear barely ever say a name. The budget for this film is small, it doesn't come across as cheesy or cheap but the limited locations and actors along with some of the special effects echoes independent financing. My conclusion in the end is I believe I may have figured out what the intended meaning of the movie was but your guess would be as good as mine. Would I recommend this movie for others not necessarily although it has some good qualities but to take that trip again knowing the final destination is really not worth it.

Seriously? I have no idea what was going on this movie. Something about rebirth/transcendence or something.

I'm halfway between those who are sniffing their own farts and examining "brilliant" and those belching out "arthouse garbage". I loosely feel like I understood what was being presented but it's a film that is overtly obscure in its narrative, see my title for more information. It was far too well shot and composed to give it a 1 star. It's ambiguous nature of shock and sexuality is too much to give it a 10. If you like artsy horror than I would recommend checking it out. If you enjoy a structured story than skip at all costs.

The premise tries too hard to be very philosophical and it gets lost in itself which may be disappointed the film to begin with. The main actor is quite good but he even seems somewhat confused by what the logic of the film is to be. It just reminds me of a much higher budget film school film that is very beautifully shot and if you have the patience is very nice to watch. But I don't think the director writer producers were even sure of what they were trying to make.

It really stroke me how original it was visually.

There are several really weird visual effects and designs that made this movie watchable beyond the weirdness.

It's really slow and it's hard to got through if you're were looking for some straight forward horror, this is more in the psychedelic and psychological horror with stunning, creepy visuals.

The story is interesting, but I felt the third act was a bit weak in contrast to the mystery and tension slowly built up until then.

It's a very experimental movie which won't appeal to everyone, as someone very interested in the visual aspect of movies, this has a lot for me to enjoy, but as a movie, it's not as solid.
