Review of Sennentuntschi: Curse of the Alps (2010) by Jason V — 21 Mar 2011

An excellent veeery original fantasy thriller that I didn't decide to see before yesterday, days after it came out, which is really rare from me, planning all I wanna see weeks, or months or years before they arrive.

I think it's the 1st film I see in Swiss-german, which made it be even more original.

The script is very complexe, tortuous, sometimes hard to catch, follow, making you doubt of what's the truth, what is the reality, the good explanation to facts, situations...

Even after the end, you aren't sure you understood all, and that comment comes from someone with a pretty full brain, without wanting to seem proud.

:P B-) ;).

No, seriously, I have the pride to declare I'm intelligent, but it doesn't impede me not to catch everything in every movie, of course, and I have the modesty to admitt it, contrary to too much asses.

And it's maybe the case in this confused story. Confused, but very refreshing, smart, interesting, almost scary by moments...

Set in sooooo beautiful landscapes of the Swiss mountains, and in a small ancient village very pretty too.

It makes you dream to have some walks there; like in so many places of my beautiful country that I know too little, sadly.

As this Swiss movie is coproduced by Germany, Austria and France, it'll be seen at least in all those countries and some others, but I hope americans (between others) will have it on more than 2-3 screens for the entire country; but I'm afraid not...
