It's been 45 days since I watched a film. It's been a nice long detox, full of playing Football Manager, trying obtain my student's visa and watching House MD for the first time.
What a magnificent piece of cinema. 4 years ago I've watched the first 25 minutes of this film during a late night. Got sleepy and postponed it to the next day. Finally today, I've started again from the first second and properly watched it.
Cinematography isn't really…
I could use some beer after this.
Claustrophobic, bleak and tiring to watch. But that's the charm. You feel trapped with John.
It really builds a whole new world within Australia. The purified Australian experience.
Don't really have a lot of things to say, but impressive filmmaking. The hunting and fighting scenes were amazing. Absolute madness.
Finally, what's worse than gambling? Greed. John deserved whatever the hell he lived through.
Constant feeling of insomnia, constant feeling of paranoia and constant feeling of tension. You feel the freezing cold weather of Antarctica and feel the fire coming through the flamethrowers. The next step in the storyline is always a mystery and we are as clueless as the characters are.
The Thing proves it. Atmosphere is everything!!
Perfect film to watch at 5 in the morning during quarantine.
