saw this flick lastnight at the civic in Auckland City. To be honest I didnt really know what to expect as the trailer doesnt give away much, which to me is a draw card in itself. Since it was the final film of the film festival I definately had to check it out. The only way I can describe this film is something that you couldnt even dream of no matter what drugs you are on slash a big glazy cinematic acid trip.
I had been told about this new underground drug called DMT a while back by a friend from Sydney, and the core of this film is pretty much based around it. It releases a chemical in your brain which is triggered off when you die, and makes you experience something out of this world.
This film gives you an insight of that trip, and shows you all the stuff in life what you dont want to see but you have always wondered about. Gaspar Noe (filmaker) in my opinion has basically pissed on the industry and made exactly what he wanted to make without giving a fuck about no rules. The only drawback of seeing it (in my opinion) was the audience. Laughing in inappropiate times and displaying a lack of open mindness and maturity. (not everyone ofcourse).
If you are in for the most shocking / weirdest and most intriguing movie youve no doubt seen layered with a twisted but clever storyline, then I highly recommend this to you. PS. this film IS NOT FOR EVERYONE!!!
A few additional things... im going to check out Irreverisble tonight, another one of Noes films. He has also make video clips for groups Placebo and Bone Fiction. YEP
