7lives (2011)

I watched this movie yesterday. Not a bad movie at all.After the first 10 minutes or so, it catches your attention. In fact, you'll be asking yourself 'what is going on?' throughout most of the movie. It is a little confusing, perhaps watching it a second or a third time would answer a few questions. But I think (and most viewers too) I won't spend more time with, it is worth watching once, not more.Different characters repeat the same phrases in different occasions, I couldn't help but compare this to 'Cloud Atlas', only in a different (much lower) level. Perhaps this adds some interest to the story, I think this makes it a little more confusing. See for yourself.Overall, '7 Lives' is not a masterpiece, far from it, but it is watchable - if you have 99 minutes to spend.

Danny Dyer is getting worse by the minute. He was never an Al Pachino or Denzel Washington, but he was in some decent British movies back in the day that suited his personality/accent. Now he is trying act like he can "act" and staring in films with a budget of like £2.50 does not help either. This film was bad, really bad and half way through I was starting to feel like someone had slipped something into my drink as I had no clue what was going on or where I was. The 3.3 rating it has is ridiculous, it's more like 1.3 and that's only because it gives you a reason to join IMDb and write a review.

Please do not watch this film. I have just wasted what feels like 7 lifetimes of excruciating pain... this is the worst film, if it can be called that, that I have ever endured. It is awful, truly awful. It is so bad, i have created an IMDb account just to warn everyone. AVOID at all costs. By the way, i haven't included a spoiler, there isn't one. There is very little story. I still cannot believe that i sat through the whole thing.it starts off OK, well the first five minutes do. then it seems to fall off the edge of a cliff. if i had asked my 5 year old daughter to come up with a story, I think that she would have made a better job. as you may have guessed, I HATED THIS FILM. If you ignore me and watch it, I think you will hate it too.

Saw this in the cinema and loved it. It defies definition... so I'll try. It's about a soul on the brink of death, being passed from body to body and experiencing other possible existences. (But I could be wrong.) Performances are understated and true (I especially liked Kate Ashfield's); individual scenes viewed in isolation play like extracts from an intelligent TV drama. However the audience has to quickly abandon any attempt to be bound by pre-conceptions of Genre: this is the ultimate genre-buster! Disconcerting at first, then unexpectedly liberating. Great performances, engrossing tale. Recommended.
