Review of Closer (2004) by Jordan F — 15 Apr 2011
Yay for Talking Heads!
This is not a movie, it's more like a whole bunch of acting scenes put together with big name Actors.
The film starts off with Natalie Portman getting hit by a car and Jude Law falling for her. But then out of nowhere he falls for Julia Roberts, in like one scene! Then Clive Owen gets in the mix and falls for Julia Roberts also. Then there's a whole bunch of break ups and re-uniting and sex between the four characters. However there's no visual sex, they just talk about the sex. The film starts off very slowly until the 40min mark when the first break happens.
All this film has going for it is the dialogue. Bad editing, bad transition between scenes, bad cinematography. It's just four big actors yelling, seducing, and crying at each other for the whole movie. Without the good acting this film would be a 10%, luckily it spent 35 million dollars on actors to barely save it.
