Piercing Brightness (2013)

A Brilliant Conflict

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

This film does have a message: the message being ...... AVOIDI'd seen the reviews on here but was prepared to give it a go and LoveFilm had no problem with that. Whilst its only 80 minutes long - I lasted 15 and boy, they were the longest 15 minutes of my life and I hope they're not THE 15 minutes the famous wig on a stick spoke about. I'm all for ambiguity, jump cuts, static, vertical hold shift, non- narrative, but if it hadn't been for the sticker on the Lovefim DVD case I would have been none the wiser for being none the wiser. I'm sure this wowed the lecturers at film school, and whilst I'm not asking for a car chase or even Danny 'Gor Bless Him' Dyer, I wanted, nay, needed some raft of hope to cling to. But, rather like the bloke in Titanic,I was still clinging, but the cause and all hope had been lost .........

This is not a film for everybody. Closest to something like Liquid Sky it is a willfully bizarre low budget sci-fi film that owes more to experimental film-art than Spielberg-esque fantasy. Not an easy watch but rewarding and strangely memorable even if half of the time you have no idea what is going on. Funny in places, mesmeric in others, as if a British soap opera had been re-created by some alien species using only the synopsis from TV listing magazines. Bold and unapologetically bonkers. It also has a superb psychedelic soundtrack from Acid Mothers Temple. It is the sort of film that was more commonly made in the 1960s and 1970s when film makers cared more about their own vision rather than that of any potential audience.

OMG what a load of senseless piece of British junk. After 20 minutes of this rubbish I had a choice of either committing suicide or stop watching. Well I am still alive. So bad I was on the verge of saying when will it get a bit better. Never. I would love to take the director and producer and the moron who came out with crap to court and sue them for destroying my mind with this badly acted slow and boring senseless movie. Movie? Sorry i should say mind insulting piece of …. Anyone acting in this film must so desperate for work. Please do not waste your time or money on this. If this was my DVD I would have broken it in half. Take my advice and give this a very very wide birth.

There is absolutely no plot in this godforsaken trash. None whatsoever. Nor is there any meaningful dialog. However the wardrobe is just out of this world for sheer creativity; especially the woman with Cheerios and Froot-Loops glued to the side of her face.The ending is just as senseless as the rest of it. This pile of junk rated at 6.2 and now it's down to 5.8.It can only be surmised that this garbage is being voted down by people actually having viewed the movie after the cast and crew voted it up.Avoid this moronic trash, unless severe brain pain is an uncontrollable fetish of yours. Seriously, it's bad.
