Movie Reviews of Irreversible
Movie Review: The road to hell is irreversible
Summary: 4 Stars
For the majority of people "Irreversible" will probably be remembered as the film with the 9min. rape scene involving Monica Bellucci. Still, if you belong to that category, you may actually be missing the point.Ok, it is a shockingly violent film at times. Also it is true that some extreme reactions of the characters may, at first, seem irrelevant. But as the story keeps unwinding in a reverse manner, rightfully reminding us of "Memento", the pieces fall in the right places and everything seems logical. Cruel but logical.
"Irreversible" tells a story of revenge or as its director, Gaspar Noe, put it in an interview, "it depicts how people act when they find themselves in extreme situations". And you don't have to wait long, before you can realize that. The real challenge for the viewer lies in the film's opening minutes, in a sequence which, in my opinion, beats even the rape scene itself. The camera is in constant motion - moving up and down, left and right, the light is almost non-existent, while the music, loud and sharp, hurts the ears. You can sense in the atmosphere that something is very wrong. And soon, bang, you'll get your chance to see that you were not mistaken.
If that is not hell, then it should be darn close.
