13 Tzameti Review

[marktrib]

6.5??? Find a window and jump

[XerosXIII]

imo, the whole black and white aspect is the thing that shift our focus throughout the film, such as light, gun or person at minimum effort

and 13 is more of a silent protagonist that bring the audience for a ride, somehow

when he stepped onto the stage, nothing else really matters and have you rooting for the guy you just walk in with.

this is not a review :) feels like an opinion of an average pop-corn loving teenager, who accidentally stumbled upon an European film and desperately tries to make some sense out of it by force-fitting it into an a Hollywood narrative paradigm.

[TheGOBEJISHVILI]

This is more like an opinion rather than a review of the movie

[gglaw42]

Sounds like a fun and mindless film (particuarly if you loose at Russian roulette, eh).

[malcolmyangjun]

i watch it. and this is ur review?

what the heck is this

you are telling me the story.... ?

waste my time to watch your useless review

[92ninersboy]

This film is over the reviewer's head. Its bad enough when you read simplistic, reiteration of the plot reviews of the basic, moronic Hollywood fare aimed at twelve-year-olds, but in the case of a film like "13 Tzameti", its particularly nauseating. This guy wouldn't perceive existential if Death himself sat down to play chess with him.

[logwind]

I've seen the film and this guy is pretty dead on. I loved the concept but there's no real character development. Still a very unique and engaging piece of film.

who is he 2 talk about movies?this guy must cook,movies are not your best part maaaan.and movie is awesome

[petitpousset]

you call this a review?

[soulharvest2012]

What a shallow and mediocre review. Plus you spolied the movie. I can only imagine what you would have said about Waiting For Godot. Uggh. Please stick to reviewing Disney movies or teen slasher flicks. I think this was a little above your IQ level.

[92ninersboy]

A very lame review. I'm so tired of lazy reviewers who just play out the clock by running down details of the plot. In this case, there is so much more to this film than what the reviewer managed to perceive. There's a reason this film won the awards that it did - its brilliant. There are many levels to this film - philosophical and social and related to human nature. I give this review a thumbs down.

[TedDibiasePriceless]

i woud like to see you do a review since your such a smart ass

[TisUsernameSucks]

you pretty much ruined the movie. you're supposed to go into the movie not knowning ANYTHING about it, so that the "game" shocks you.

LOoOoOovE ThIIiIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis MoViE........

[zukapuka]

This idiot does not know nothing about films!

[fridon13]

esta pelicula se merece un puto 10

[punkindrublicrpp]

reviews do not entail rehashing the entire damn movie for 1/3 of the whole length of the review.

i give you a 2/10.

[alejandroxrev]

¿6.5 de 10? !Que idiota! !!Esta película se merece al menos un 9 de 10!!

[CTAWorshipper]

Es por eso que yo no creo en las "criticas" de estos imbeciles. Ellos generalmente son pagados por los productores para que le den una buena nota a sus peliculas.

Cuando veo notas de estos imbeciles recomendando una pelicula diciendo que es muy buena, ya se que la pelicula por consecuencia es mala. Una buena pelicula como 13-Tzameti, no necesita recomendacion de estupidos como este, sino de recomendaciones de boca en boca.

[LukeELrod]

this film could have been ruined by color. B&W adds disparity and hardens peoples faces which illuminates the feeling in the game room.

[shotgunjoe]

Yes! Colour I think would totally drain the emotion you get from the grainy minimalistic texturing of the film.

[shotgunjoe]

I disagree with him completely. I thought the black and white really added to the intensity of the film, and I doubt if in colour the suspense built up when watching the bulb would really have the same effect on me. I'm trying to picture it in colour and its not working. Also, the character development I don't think is as necessary as he thinks it is. Sebastien doesn't speak that much, but his facial expressions say more than words ever could, like in his final duel. Truly gripping stuff.

[Colquhouny]

i agree with shotgunjoe.

thats pretty much what i thought also after watching the film.

[bedirty]

The DVD comes out in the US on Feb 13th, 2007.

[oscarpetrucci]

nice, thanks for the review, btw anyone knows where to get it on dvd?
