This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
The acting in this movie is really good.
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
This movie fails on every fundamental level beyond not being a series of moving pictures.
Miska (Michaela Rexova) is a theoretical physicist in a sun dress. Her and her friend (Akçay Karaazmak) travel to Cesme, Turkey where she has calculated the magnetic pull of the planets will cause a black hole phenomena. On screen it appears we are watching someone else's bad acid trip with a lousy soundtrack. A pathetic piano? Seriously?This is supposed to be based on "science" and is basically the same weird science we saw in "Interstellar" when he was in the event horizon of a black hole and was rearranging his library both light years and decades back in time. Now exactly how this phenomenon will play out in reality, provided someone could survive in it, is a guess. This is an artsy film for people who hate acting, dialogue, and sound.Some use of F-bomb. No sex or nudity in the first half (Sorry my FF button stuck at that point and I went to make a sandwich)Afterwards I felt like a character in an old Cheech & Chong routine: Kid "Hey Hippie. Wanna buy a watch?" Hippie: "I'm not into time."Nothing like making science boring. This film made "Primer" look like Oscar material.
This must be one of the worst films I've seen in quite some time.Unfortunately the director seems to have done every job himself and I think that includes marketing as it looks (painfully obvious) that he's written most of the 'good' reviews on here! With lines like: 'I am happy that Reminiscence is not a kind of horror film that we usually watch. It is also very interesting that Reminiscence is first movie of Akçay Karaazmak and he made all by himself. Which actually is unbelievable. He wrote, directed, made the visual effects, did the editing, composed the music, even most of the shots are filmed by him.'It's a shame when you have to create fake accounts to write fake reviews about your own film. Reminiscence's got bad sound, terrible photography, acting, music, editing and script. Stay clear of this one as you will be wasting your time. Absolutely awful film.
Being a sort of knowledgeable film nerd, sometimes you just have to dive in title vaults to find something new and potentially interesting.Sometimes that vault is IMDb listings: sometimes that path is one to hell. How this inarguably piece of garbage keeps a 8 score from 2000 votes and some ranking out of IMDb listings is beyond comprehension..if not for a clever advertising ruse. Because that's all this film is: a neat publicity stunt. All you find around the web about this film is an awesome plot with some deep explanation of characters, atmosphere and weird mythology, a cleverly put trailer and a nifty poster to awaken your interest..which it does. Problem is the real thing is a pretentious boring and lame plot less video feature. The acting is atrocious, so thank god for that cheap ominous and uninspired soundtrack leveled up the dialogue volume. Editing is just incompetent with some atrocious sense of pace, and continuity is something unheard of for this crew. Photography can redeem like a 1% of the movie, but that's kudos to the beautiful scenery: camera wise, it is submitted to abuse with some of the worst shaky-cam treatments ever, 40% of the whole film is feet frame based, 20% pitch black and the remainder just expressionless embarrassing faces.And I thought this was a horror film..Well, the horror is real, just fighting the narcotic effect of boredom. A couple of creepy post-prod faces, some overused ffwd editing crap combined with unclever topical imagery out of some 2000's Ringu type film. And a tree; and waves showed in reverse. Creepy.Don't even waste a glimpse into this thing, don't even remotely believe any of the good reviews out there: don't fall for the con. I should have seen it coming in the atrocious first 5 minutes, but I was naive and hopeful. Serves me right for trusting the internets.Damn.
