Upstream Color Movie Review: | |
| This enigma-delivery system from a sharp mind has enthralling moments but becomes a bit enervating in its self-seriousness. By the end, the whole thing feels more academic than mind-bending. Farran Smith Nehme-New York Post "Upstream Color" lacks both a clear point and, more crucially, a point of view. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger What I discern here is the work of a unique visual stylist and collage artist who's creating obsessive-compulsive allegorical puzzles, whose underlying philosophy is deliberately unclear. Andrew O'Hehir-Salon.com A deeply sincere, elliptical movie about being and nature, men and women, self and other, worms and pigs ... Manohla Dargis-New York Times "Upstream Color" is weird, but it's worth the time. Joe Neumaier-New York Daily News A romance, a thriller, and a science-fiction drama, "Upstream Color" tantalizes viewers with an open-ended narrative about overcoming personal loss. Simon Abrams-Chicago Sun-Times A 96-minute therapy session where discomforting symbology and gross human abuse create a framework for powerful, all-consuming love. William Bibbiani-CraveOnline A bold, imaginative, poetic and, admittedly, frustrating piece of filmmaking that's always engaging and frequently beautiful. Sean O'Connell-CinemaBlend.com Anybody haunted by Primer's creepy overtones will instantly recognize it as the work of the same director. Perry Seibert-TV Guide's Movie Guide ... a tremendous return by a gifted filmmaker, and one of the real highlights of this year's Sundance Film Festival. Drew McWeeny-HitFix If writer-director Shane Carruth were to ever find a way to get his audience to feel as well as he gets them to think, he might be truly onto something extraordinary. Dustin Putman-DustinPutman.com If "Primer" was a Rubik's Cube, "Upstream Color" is a poem or a half-remembered dream -- or, more accurately, a nightmare. Tim Grierson-Back Stage ...another unclassifiable and unique piece of quasi-science-fiction paranoia. Chris Barsanti-Film Journal International So soft-focus is Shane Carruth's praised anticipated 'Upstream Color' that any adjectives might be applied except 'coherent' and 'bearable.' Donald J. Levit-ReelTalk Movie Reviews Upstream Color is one of the greatest realizations of the digital dream, which was supposed to allow filmmakers to express a full, idiosyncratic vision from outside the system. Scott Tobias-AV Club Carruth's film plays like a glass harp which has been smashed and reassembled with missing pieces but unbroken sound. Laura Clifford-Reeling Reviews | |
