Die dunkle Seite des Mondes

Whats the conclusion of the movie?

Mushrooms are bad! if you eat it, you will become a psycho? 😄

Or you are a psycho already do not blame mushrooms? 🤠

Or do not trust pharma companies ?

I watched it because Of Moritz Bleintreu. He is a good actor & did a grest job.. but the script wtf 🙊?

I must say i really enjoyed the first 2/3 of the movie: its atmospheric and the story-line advances fast and the movie really captivates you. But then it all went wrong, that in the end i would not recommend to watch this movie. What happened? For me a story-driven movie like this one needs to have a somewhat plausible end. The story advances to more and more to unrealistic heights, which makes one ask oneself "i am really curious with what "magical trick" at the end everything will make sense". The movie builds up tension and more tension for the end and then the movie more or less just stops. Its like really good sex that builds up more and more and then it just stops without an orgasm: leaving you unsatisfied and frustrated...

What a waste of the talents of Prochnow and Bleibtreu.

We have all heard the urban legend of a bad trip right? But what if it wasn't just an urban legend? What if after taking drugs your personality would be altered? What if you couldn't control your temper any more? Die dunkle Seite des Mondes explores some great themes of the human condition and whether or not you are responsible for all your actions. Additionally you get wonderful nature shots that reminded me of such movies like The Revenant. Also quite some good acting from some of the biggest actors of German cinema. Especially fans of Dune and Das Boot should be happy to see Jürgen Prochnow deliver a great performance. Great little film if you dig suspense.

I haven't read the novel this is based on, but judging from what I saw in this movie, it should be pretty good. Moritz Bleibtreu is not the only one who is glad that thrillers are made. It's tough because of the expectations and the cinemas not getting the revenue getting anything back (never mind the distributors or investors).

This gets pretty dark and you get kind of in the head of our main character and how he is feeling. It's about a dark side that gets awakened, which is never a good thing of course. The movie does suggest a lot of things and the ending may seem a bit far stretched, but overall it does work ...
