Review of Irreversible (2002) by Brian M — 05 Feb 2011
French movie. Reverse timeline. Presented as an arty film, but it's kind of just dumb. It's starts off interesting (which is the really the end of the story) until a very brutal, and unnecessary 10 minute scene happens in the middle.
After suffering through that, it's like watching a very bad Tarantino film, only the dialog just doesn't matter at all. Basically, it only kept me interested for about 30 minutes. I'm not one to get all weirded out by shocking scenes, but when they arn't necessary (it could have easily been suggested or a minute long) and are presented as timeline filler, it's just a waste of celluloid .
