Review of Holy Motors (2012) by Cheryl C — 30 Jan 2013

I often enjoy reading reviews, IMDB trivia and more about a movie I've just seen, but with Holy Motors, it was absolutely necessary as the experience of watching the movie seeped into my brain. Watching this movie was frequently an odd, unsettling experience, but it was so interesting that it's overall a positive one.

I say "unsettling" not because of violence, sex, or any of the usual suspects (although there are tinges of those), but mainly because your brain is constantly struggling to make sense of everything going on, while another part of your mind is just flat enjoying the ridiculous adventure.
