Almost Put Me to Sleep
I’m going to rip on this movie so much, so first I’ll talk about what I like. I like that it partially deals with a regional issue – a flood which has caused people to move out from the area in which the film takes place. I like the aspect of the two characters having the same quest – looking for somebody to finish unsettled business, though one is more successful than the other.

Basically, the rest of the film was not captivating to me at all. There weren’t really any memorable lines, and good lines are what people take away from films because words sometimes inspire us more than just the images within film even though film is a visual medium. There was a use of special effects at one point of this film, and I really did not understand its purpose at all. We see this certain structure a few times throughout the film (it is difficult to describe) and at one point, this structure randomly produces fire at its base and takes off like a rocket. It seemed so out of place for this movie, which seemed to deal with very real dramatic situations. Though I know art cinema deals with narration over narrative, the narration wasn’t even worth the experience for this film (should I even call it an art film?)

Maybe it’s just me, but I really didn’t relate to any characters in this film, it didn’t look great visually, and there was no memorable dialogue in Still Life. While it dealt with dramatic situations this film was the antithesis of entertaining. If you’re an avid film critic, give this a spin and prove me wrong, but you will hate this if you’re looking for a good time.
