Melancholie der Engel (2009)
A collage of random violence
I think there is always a value and a recognition that we all have to do when we watch the distopic version of the world made by someone else, I must admit there is always room for the shock value in cinema, however, there is no artistic value in this nonexisting script and the meaningless use of animal violence through all the film.
I know perfectlly that directors like Marian are just "artists" looking for this kind of reaction "this movie is so bad, is just meaningless violence and gore" and well, here you have it. Is this a good film? not at all, Is this more disturbing than any other film out there? not really, it is just stupid and annoying... Also, if you wanted to make solemn music, there are more ways to do it than just steal the chords from Cannon in C.
I may not be the best person to appreciate the "art house" but this one sucks.
Gin-iro no kami no Agito (2006)
Beautifully boring
I found this film stetically nice, and the first minutes you get inmersed into a weird post-apocalyptic plot that makes you wonder what happened to the world, i spent half of the film just wondering stuff until i found that questions were already solved in the most simplistic and not inmersing way. Conversations are a total cliche the whole film, the character and story development is extremely poor so when the main "emotional" moment comes in, you can do nothing but raise an eyebrow. Personally i found the singing in the main track annoying and distracting and the only thing i can highlight about this film is the colorfulness and the (kind of) main plot.
