علاء EL TARF 36 ح @Aala36 Jan 13 birth (2004) is a clear example of a promising idea abandoned without care. A lazy screenplay, artificial ambiguity, and an ending that feels more like an escape than a creative choice. The film does not construct a mystery; instead, it demands blind belief simply because "the director wants it," without logic, rules, or respect for the viewer’s intelligence. The characters’ behavior is deeply unrealistic, especially the protagonist, who abandons the most basic human reactions just so the film can sustain its psychological trick. The child is neither a profound symbol nor a clever mystery, but a walking narrative flaw. The direction is cold, the pacing is dull, and long silences do not create depth when there is no substance beneath them. As for the ending, it feels like a blunt confession that the filmmakers did not know how to conclude the story, so they chose to stop it abruptly and leave the audience confused., trivial movietrivial movie 🤮 See more Daniel S @RT37151421 Aug 25 Jonathan Glazer’s Birth is a haunting, polarizing meditation on love, grief, and obsession. Anchored by Nicole Kidman’s fragile yet magnetic performance, the film thrives on atmosphere, ambiguity, and quiet tension rather than clear answers or traditional thrills. Its hypnotic style and refusal to ‘show its hand’ make it both striking and frustrating.. admired for its craft and performances, dismissed by others as slow or pretentious. Whether loved or hated, Birth is unforgettable, a cinematic conundrum that lingers long after the credits. See more Colin M @RT35044827 01/16/2025 A man dies. A child is born. An enjoyable movie that leaves you wondering about the central question until near the end. Well structured. A bit too much silence from intelligent people when there should be more questions asked, but that was okay. See more h t @RT73934410 01/14/2025 Go off Nicole !! The ratings on this film are a travesty!! Amazing film, amazing acting, insane story line, has stayed with me weeks after, some absolute genious moments, glazier strikes again baby. If you can allow yourself to trust it, through its surreal and at times uncomfortable themes, then its quite a ride. Peace out Johnathan, thank you for another total mind blending slice of something so unrealy real See more Julian S @akajulianscott 10/13/2024 It’s not a bad film, but the performances are way too subdued for how catastrophic the story is. See more Peepmo E @RT90449898 06/05/2024 Delicate and strange, it's not for everyone. This film is expertly crafted and weirdly haunting. I can't believe how criminally underrated it is. Pearls before swine y'all. See more Read all reviews
