somebodyelsethanyou_987Yesterday, I watched the strangest movie ever; it's called Wavelength (SPOILER!!! It sucks). I would like to explain what it is about. As there is no plot, it is quite impossible to do so.
Don't get me wrong, I love strange movies. I do love them, especially Begotten; however, this was just lazy. No characters, just one scenery, no dialogues. It was only a camera, zooming into a wall.
You can see the movie here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=963PSjAHo48&t=2s. (It's not a virus, I swear).
It is hard to criticize this movie. Because it makes me question a lot of things, like, how are we supposed to rate art???
For example, we could clearly state that the Emoji Movie is trash; however, that's because we have seen many other films. If Emoji Movie was the first movie you ever saw, you would probably think it was the greatest thing ever.
This also makes me wonder if art critics are more capable of critiquing art than normal people because they have had more exposure to art. And if so, should they rate it based on what they think (having a large knowledge of art) or based on whether the public in general will like it?
If this movie wanted me to think, it has been archived. It was still hard to watch, but I also kind of still want to know more about it and see films like it.
I think I'm going to leave it as it is, and think of it once in a while.
By the way, I didn't study for the exam, so I didn't present for it; it's taking place right now. Still, I got a good grade on another one, so I guess it doesn't matter that much.
Have a nice day, and remember to be kind.
