Movie Review: Boooooooooooooring!
Summary: 1 Stars
I LOVE pink floyd so I picked up this movie. Didn't know what to expect, but what I got wasn't it. What a boring movie. Save your money.Movie Review: More than I expected
Summary: 5 Stars
Being a Pink Floyd fan I first owned the CD of the music from the Pink Floyd score. Some years back it seemed the movie was unavailable so more years went by and I was always curious with a wanting to someday see the film. I finally got the DVD and the film More is much more likeable than I ever imagined. The quality and the story seem very good to me and that the movie was released in 1969 shows me that this movie is way better than most other productions I have ever seen. And I also learn something.....our reveiws are sometimes fickle but I never take the word of a critic that puts a movie down......my most favorite movies of alltime were downed by critics.....I think they try to steal power for their own egos when putting things down. The film More deserves all five stars and is way more than I ever imagined or expected it to be. The DVD copy I bought is now another gem in my vast music and movie collection. Thanks to amazon.com Movie Review: For those who Lived it...
Summary: 5 Stars
In 1969, "More" prompted many young urbanites to move to Ibiza, to live the utopian dream. The Pink Floyd is a favorite among the expatriate veterans who still live on the island. English is the proper language for this movie, for, not only it facilitated its commercialization, but actually is the lingua franca among these expressive expatriates.
Though a tad disappointing as a movie production, "More" historically embodies the Spirit of a time. The acting is quite ludicrous at the beginning, but it gradually improves, as the narrative unfolds and the actors get into their roles. In any case, More is definitely a cult of the counterculture, thematizing the challenges and shortcomings of transpersonal utopia. Reflecting the anti-heroine stance (drug which ultimately throws hippies down from bliss to destruction), the movie resonates with autobiographies, such as Cleo Odzer's "Goa Freaks", and it can be better understood by the anthropological book by Anthony D'Andrea, "Global Nomads" about Ibiza and Goa/India.
If you experienced the counterculture, and/or were in Ibiza (its alternative world, not tourism...), or like chaotic romances in exotic yet real situations, then you will love the movie. But if you don't empathize with any of the related issues, then it is better not to expect too much...
Movie Review: Cool hippie era film
Summary: 4 Stars
I enjoyed this movie on many levels such as musically with the Pink
Floyd early era music, the nice scenery, historically such as the drug use
and the attitudes at the time ; the sensuality of some scenes- the nudity added to the feeling of personal freedom that is very attractive in the film and at the same time lead to tragedy which makes it a good story and film.
Movie Review: More
Summary: 3 Stars
One of the most representative films of the hippy times, together with Denis Hopper's Easy Rider. This is a love story, though the woman is drug addict and the man somewhat jealous and moody. The woman depends in some way on a rich German who lives in Ibiza. The film was photographed by Nestor Almendros.
Summary of More
I wanted to be warm. I wanted the sun and I went after it." says Stefan as he begins his search for self by descending into the decadent pleasures of excess. Having graduated college he hitchhikes from Lnbeck, Germany to Paris, France where he finds the MoreBarbet Schroeder, the Oscar-nominated director of Reversal of Fortune, made his debut with this jaundiced view of the European youth drug culture. Klaus Gr?nberg is a naive German student who falls for blond American junkie Mimsy Farmer and discovers drugs in Paris. He follows the flighty babe to Ibiza, a sunny Mediterranean island paradise, where he falls into the world of former Nazi-turned-heroin-pusher Heinz Engelmann and succumbs to addiction. Part counterculture portrait, part antidrug drama, it's a shaggy little film that suggests the New Wave influence in a rambling pace, gorgeous asides of fun in the sun (our heroes get high and tilt at windmills--literally--in one free and easy moment), and deadpan bursts of intermittent narration. But Schroeder has little affinity with youth culture, and the film more often fits the conservative tenor of American cautionary drug dramas of the 1960s and '70s. To the film's credit, it never succumbs to the druggie clich?s of the time. You'll find none of the kaleidoscope lenses, whip pans, sunlight reflections searing the image, or choppy montages to rock & roll hits that fill the drug-culture classics, just the handsome, earthy, intimate photography of N?stor Almendros. Today, More remains most famous for its subdued, moody Pink Floyd score. --Sean Axmaker
