According to a quote from Asher's Review Anyone whom didn't like or can't appreciate this film are nothing but a bunch of shape shifting albino lizard bitches!

So I'm here to confess I AM nothing but a shape shifting albino lizard bitch! And shape shifting albino lizard bitches cannot live on style alone! We need things like flies, insects, grubs and other things of substance like CONTENT! Which in my opinion there was very little of as the film progressed!

It is amusing, dark and trippy! It simply didn't ring my chimes!

This movie intoxicating and wacky

That’s my review

Scanner? I barely know her!
And don't call me Darkly!

kill me

Perhaps the most indescribably evocative film ever made, functioning on both an emotive and formal level, it's a comedy until it stops being funny. Linklater's achievement is essentially unmatched in the medium of animation.

scavenger hunt #56

animated keanu is perhaps my new favourite thing

People who don't like - or can't appreciate - this film are nothing but a bunch of shape-shifting-albino-lizard-bitches!

Sometimes Philip K. Dick's vision is done justice (Blade Runner) usually it's not. When it comes to A Scanner Darkly I think it works so well because Linklater is one of the few film makers with a unique vision as strong as Dicks. Rotoscoping is obviously not the best way to animate but it's fluidity works perfectly for the when telling this dreamlike story. Keanu, RDJ, Harrelson, and Ryder all play this perfectly and I love being immersed in this insane world.

Dziwny to mało powiedziane i nie mówię wcale o warstwie wizualnej. Lubię ten film, ale prawda jest taka, że jest ciut bełkotliwy i nie wybrzmiewa jak należy.

I appreciate Linklater's craft in his movies (at least the ones I've seen) and this one is no exception.

Is surprising how pretty this movie looks, the vivid colors and the close-to-life animated filter gave this film a pretty unique look not often seen in cinema.

Although I somewhat got the idea of what was going on in this dystopian drama, in a way I believe I must be under the influence of psychedelic drugs in order to properly enjoy the plot.

Anyway, the cast of actors was amazing and the acring itself was priceless. Robert Downey Jr. and Woody Harrelson knew how to bring humor into this.

Terrific. Would make a great Telltale videogame adaptation.

Not quite like any movie about addiction I’ve ever seen. Eye-popping and funny and paranoid, I loved Robert Downey Jr’s performance and the Alex Jones cameo.

A different kind of animated film from Linklater.

Love the use of technology with this piece of work. Haven't read the book from Philip K. Dick but the story is pretty okay I guess.

Robert Downey, Jr. is hysterical and I enjoyed his performance. Keanu Reeves as the main lead is as conflicted and fucked up by everything as we are.

The animation is pretty good to say the least. It may work as a live-action film but some plot elements may not work in live-action. Story gets a bit rough along the way but the ending is aight.

Dude where’s my brain.

Somehow feels like Linklater’s most unique while also feeling the most quintessential “him.” The dialogue feels quite young at moments, but overall engaging and thoughtful.

I guess this is where Favreau ripped off the inside-the-helmet shots of Downey Jr for Iron Man

A darkly sinister exploration of drug culture and addiction, painted out by beautiful observations of human nature and concepts of identity. The art style ties in perfectly with the plot and themes of the movie, making the whole thing look like a bad trip.
There are a couple of scenes that drag on a little, and Keanu Reeves, while mostly very good, has one or two moments where the character slips, but over all, a fantastic movie

Fuck this was interesting. Another fantastic adaptation of a Philip K. Dick novel, except this has a little twist. The rotoscoping is phenomenal and really pleasing to look at. All the actors in this film, especially Keanu Reeves and Robert Downey jr. put on a both hilarious and enticing performance. Definitely a must watch.

Keanu just a horny boy. Horny gets you slippin.

Winona ain't thirstin. She's doing drugs.

Everyone in this movie is doing drugs. Don't do drugs.

Don't be horny. Don't do drugs. Vibe.

Film #6 of Scavenger Hunt 64
Task 13. Watch a non-Disney animated film.

I was uncertain about this to begin with but slowly the story flowed over me and drew me in. I was left feeling almost drugged myself. I haven't had a film do that to me since watching 'Inherent Vice'.

La animación rotoscópica (no sé si se dice así en español) le da un toque bastante oscuro, y muy raro, realista, pero a la vez se ve que algo no es normal, ese aspecto le añade mucho al tema de la película, mostrando alucinaciones y distorsiones de la realidad tal cual lo ven los personajes.
Las actuaciones están muy bien logradas, los personajes logran trasmitir este sentimiento de paranoia inducido por su adicción a las drogas.
El problema con la película es que no tiene mucha trama que digamos, hay muchas escenas donde pasan cosas que si se sacan no tienen peso en el conflicto principal de la historia. También siento que terminó muy abruptamente.
Aún así, logra ser una peli muy interesante visualmente
