Possibly the best acted, well written and most beautiful movie out there. I was skeptical for the first 20-30 mins, but then it opened up to be one of the most amazing movies I've ever seen. The musical performances were spectacular, most of the scenes feel more like a documentary, they're acted so organically with the absence of vanity interfering with the story. 10/5 stars!

Not my thing. Went completely over my head.

SWAN (Saul Williams and Anisia Uzeyman) has molded nothing less than a luminous masterpiece; a heartbeat transferred to film. Hypnotizing from start to finish, Neptune Frost is a strong contender for movie of the year. If you struggle with reading subtitles following abstract art, or lack a taste for poetry, this one's probably not for you.

I would so liked to have given this ambitious indie offering a higher score, but, unfortunately, because of clarity conflicts between narrative and screenplay, I simply couldn't. This Afrocentric musical fantasy with a multitude of themes protesting war, corporate greed, social intolerance and a host of other issues definitely has its heart in the right place, with inventive special effects and cutting-edge musical stylings. However, its attempt to express itself through cryptic poetic dialogue and soliloquies obscures its messages with its often-indecipherable prose. I sincerely applaud the attempt to push the envelope of the script, but, when the mixed metaphor wording becomes so irretrievably gnarled and vague, it's difficult to figure out exactly what the screenwriter is seeking to say. Directors Anisia Uzeyman and Saul Williams are clearly on to something here, but they need to clean it up a bit to make the material more coherent and accessible, with writing that's on par with the superb quality of everything else this innovative release has to offer.

You've never seen anything like Neptune Frost and it's worth watching for that reason alone. I don't think I'd watch it again but I'm glad that I got to see something truly original.

I'm getting less patient with these high-concept, image & metaphor-driven arthouse flicks. Far too much random, nebulous, overly subjective content. Just nonsensical 'dialogue'/lines thrown out (unanimous goldmine, we all know our fathers...mother and father were binary stars... blah, blah, blah). Went from nearly having a story line that had a serious point, to jumping back & forth into disjointed, unconnected scenes. It was like reading overlty symbolist or beat poetry where 10 ppl can read it and give 10 different interpretations. There's no solid grounding to that. It was surely made with a point(s)/ideas, but it comes off as arty twaddle/indulgence. I get the intent that they had with the hacking and the takeover they wanted/needed, but they didn't go on and fulfill any of it. Just felt extremely random, incoherent (Innocent is here, then sent away. Why not use him? What's with the nebulous talk about what the Motherboard is? Why the need for the sexual advances, one more like a would-be assault? 2.3 stars

I wish there was an English dub in the film.

Inventive and moving film.

Definitely need to see it again. It pounded out politics, philosophy and art with rhythm. It moves pretty fast with magical colors. Stunning and much food for thought if you are open to it.

I loved the visual, the songs and the message but got a bit confused by the story.

Incredible from beginning to end! A movie that fires on all cylinders!

This movie is for anybody wanting to travel the solar system of magnificence. As a person fed up with depending on tech I was so open. It brought me to new dimensions in condensed joyous lessons.
