The Owner

Watching a movie that entertains you with such a complex production is just refreshing and brings hope to my spirit. The story is well presented throughout many countries, characters and sub-stories. The production design as a whole is just an award winning job!! Highly recommended! The acting is great and really liked watching the culture of each particular country coming afloat in each segment with the plots each story has. Connecting all the segments with just a bag is a brilliant idea! And these filmmakers took full advantage of this to collaborate in a movie that reflects the real spirit of indie filmmaking. Storytellers by nature. A great movie that needs to be watched!

A wonderfully creative, innovative, colorful and enjoyable movie. The directors certainly had their hearts in the right place: creativity and experimentation rather than monetary gain or adherence to strict reality.

By virtue of its unprecedented number of directors, The Owner is unique. The thrill, variety and color of the movie, as the plot moves from one country to another and often from one language to another, are unmistakable. The different segments and sub-plots are sometimes witty and at times poignant. The audience at one moment witnesses fashion models, police, and mystery, and soon enough video-games, child-birth, and death.

An inspiration for future filmmakers. A tribute to collaboration.

Shortcomings: Perhaps becomes a little too long towards the second half. The first half is definitely more compelling. Some amount of stereotyping: bullock-carts in the India segment, for instance.

They say too many cooks spoil the broth! But once you watch the Owner, the first of its kind film made by 25 filmmakers from different countries, continents!

Most have never met each other!

The American from Hollywood to the cows of India; the German accents and some Italian herbs spice up this incredible film!

You can see one brilliant master piece and now on its way to becoming a part of the Guinness world Record!

its a MUST watch!! GO on guys, watch, review, like, share!!

The next one is on its way too!

this is an awesome example of how it is possible for people from various religions and countries to work towards a common goal - a feature film in this case. This fact alone sends out a strong message to the world that there is an alternative to the current global situation ... that people are more than ready to live and work together in a creative and peaceful way.

The film itself offers a grand scope spanning over various continents and it is fascinating that it weaves together so very well considering that it was shot by 25 different filmmakers with their own style and background.

Kudos to the people behind this film!

This film has everything a view could ask for. There are moments of humor, suspense, surrealism, drama, and introspection, all within in minutes of each other. I was amazed at how well each of the individual directors worked together to make a cohesive, fun, and thought provoking story. It's evident that everyone involved worked hard to keep a singular message and POV in mind, and the effort paid off. All the vignettes flowed together seamlessly, yet each managed to have a unique, individualized look and feel, and that takes a lot of work and care. Some of the vignettes worked better for me than others, but that will probably be the case for each viewer. If a segment doesn't work for you, hang in there...another one will come along that will draw you right back into the overall story. I won't give away the ending, but I will say that the final minutes of dialog will move you and keep you thinking long after you're done viewing this film. Bravo to the filmmakers and to everyone involved for creating such a warm and innovative work.
