Review of Russian Ark (2002) by Daniel K — 15 Dec 2007
Totally unique. Unlike any other film I have ever seen. Rope doesn'Â?t even come close. It is mesmerizing and intoxicating. I feel like I am on a journey towards a definite goal and purpose. I am headed in a certain direction.
There is an intensity and drive in the narrative and the continuous camera movement. This is no ordinary film. It is like a dream or a day dream. One is flung along the corridors of time and space. It is the first truly three dimensional film I have ever seen.
The run through the snowy courtyard, the prance down the corridor by the dancing maidens, and the elaborate and captivating final ballroom scene are more than most films can dream of. I love it.
