Lux Æterna Reviews
Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é mais ou menos, o filme mostra uma gravação de Um filme que é meio doido, esse filme tem cenas psicodélicas e para quem tiver epilepsia vai desmaiar na hora.
Truly awful waste if time using two big names without a trailer to get you to part with your money. Zero redeeming features. Irritating lighting bordering on dangerous levels of strobe. Avoid.
feels like this movie doesn’t want me to watch it, if that makes any sense.
My eyes are also burning, the finale just keeps going. Seems like one of the many movies about making movies that I don't get the appeal of, but this had a few interesting ideas
Qu’est-ce que c’était ça ?!? I’ll have to watch it again sometime, after my head stops hurting.
Se siente como un collage de la cinematografia de Gaspar en donde el concepto es el Arte. Con algunos elementos intencionados que hace digerible los 50 minutos.
Voyeuristic and perversely engrossing, Lux Æterna is another remarkable addition to Gaspar Noé's dark and disturbing oeuvre
If youre familiar with Gaspars films, youll know what to expect. This 52 minute film follows a similar path of its predecessor Climax in terms of flow. Slow beginning, then a fast paced remainder. Once it ends, its up to you as the viewer to determine if there was a lot to unpack, or if its just art at its most pretentious. I fall in the category of the former. I look forward to seeing Vortex next!
A completely immersive experience.
The most dysfunctional film set of all time that morphs into a Raster-Noton showcase-style audiovisual assault that might as well have been led by Ryoji Ikeda at his most strident. I've never seen anything like the final part of it in a movie theater. That's what you go to a Noé production for, right?
The best headache Ive ever experienced.
In a genre of its own Lux Aeterna operates on different levels. Largely dimissed as a mess by most critics I would suggest viewing the film within its context. Starting out as an Yves Saint Laurent promo it somehow developed into a strangely 'long' short of 51 Mins. It consists of elements of parody and filmic reverence yets ends in a mezmorising sequence, that is both consistent with Noe filmic passages and yet idiosyncratic. Self-parody is really the only direction that he can go in but it is not a dead end. The final scene is sensual and sublime like a James Turrell installation.
