Movie Reviews of Chronos [Blu-ray]
Movie Review: waste of money
Summary: 1 Stars
A total waste of money. Time-lapse photography becomes boring and annoying after a few minutes. Photography is really beautiful but the opportunity to make it entertaining or/and educational has been completely lost.
Summary of Chronos [Blu-ray]
Taking the familiar conventions of time-lapse cinematography to a transcendent level of artistic achievement, filmmaker Ron Fricke circled the globe to make Chronos, a stunning 70-millimeter time-lapse tour of natural and man-made wonders. The entire film has the enhanced, hyper-realistic quality of a laser-etched photograph, and by using special cameras and motion-control photographic techniques, Fricke and his technically expert crew were able to create mesmerizing images guaranteed to spark any viewer's sense of awe and wonder. Accompanied by the hypnotic music of Michael Stearns, this visual journey takes the viewer on a tour of over 50 locations on nearly every continent of the world, including explorations of Paris, the Vatican, the Egyptian pyramids, the African veldt, and many more stunning vistas. The cumulative effect is the feeling that the world--from the busiest metropolis to the most serenely remote wilderness landscape--is dictated by "chronos," the rhythm of time to which all living things must submit. Like Koyaanisquatsi and Baraka, this is one of those eye-candy films that was conceived according to its specific theme, so it's not only a soothing visual experience but a thought-provoking study of our fascinating planet. --Jeff ShannonCHRONOS, the quintessential large format film, is now available in High Definition… presented in an incredible restored and remastered Blu-ray Disc Digital Reference Series Special Edition.
