Die dunkle Seite des Mondes

One of the worst film that I've seen in my life. Absolutely disproportionate about the central topic of the script and the rest is superficial and without the minimum of interest.

The idea about the use of psylocibes is confusing and reveal a total ignorance or misunderstanding about it. It's like a film class B with an extreme distortion, almost a comic of the suspense (in the bad sense).

Definitely not recommended.

What a waste of the talents of Prochnow and Bleibtreu.

I saw Die Dunkle Seite des Mondes at the premiere in Berlin and was positively surprised! The story about a successful lawyer whose life spins out of control and races towards a showdown delivers a great atmosphere. Especially the camera-work is amazing delivering very atmospheric and moody shots of nature and the forest which is an integral part of the story. The director really has a great eye for setting up a mood. Also the actors do a real great job. Moritz Bleibtreu is exceptionally good at portraying the different mental states of his character and how he slowly loses his control. Very well done.

The movie strays quite a bit from the book but it would probably not have been possible to put everything from the book into a 90 minute film. If you can accept the movie as more of a focused and condensed version of the book you may find it quite entertaining.

Especially loved the end which leaves a lot of room for interpretation.

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 ...

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 🙊?
