Review of Paranoid Park (2007) by Gabriel A — 15 Sep 2012
I heard good things about this one but it turned out to be your typical IFC artsy fartsy bullshit. I respect the intentions of this film but I do not find anything interesting about minute long, lingering shots of a kid walking in a field of long grass or close ups on this kid in the shower with his head down and water dripping off of him in slow motion.
This would of worked as a short subject film. In fact, maybe it was. Gus Van Sant however, decided to stretch out the length with "artistic" slow motion shots.
