Review of Milarepa (2006) by Olli P — 18 Mar 2008
I love the story of Milarepa (that will continue in the second part.
To be released in 2009), and I love the barren, mountainous Himalayan landscape, as well as the culture represented in this movie. This movie is so authentic, refreshing, without any extra gimmicks - just as slow as it should be, putting one to think while watching.
Somebody consider this old fashioned, too slow and clumsy - maybe loosing the point. It is true that in some points acting (being somewhat amateurish), filming etc. could have been better but I'd rate this movie with different standards than Hollywood movie, being so happy that alternate approaches in making movies still exist.
