Generation Um… Movie Reviews

Edgy NYC indie flick

I can believe that this movie wont be released at your local multiplex but it is an interesting account of 24 hours in the life of sex workers in NYC. Not an X rated movie by any stretch but more of a personal exploration of people that wind up in this situation and how their day goes. There are some edgy scenes of a sexual nature and when that includes one with Keanu Reeves that is a real attention getter. He is so achingly damaged and sweet in this role. Through his curiosity, and his sincerity, and his stolen movie camera, he is able to reveal some of himself and be a real friend for the 2 young women sex workers, without judging them. Not a feel good film. More about gritty pathos on the seamy side of NYC. The extras and commentary are not to be missed. Reeves more revealing than usual. I really dug it.

It’s complicated

I really didn’t want to watch this movie. The low rating is an absolute no go. But thanks to some user comments i saw a potential.

I’m happy that i took the chance. It’s a movie about life in a certain age – my age. Maybe thats the the reason i liked the movie. It was true. I had a good feeling watching it. I didn’t always like the way the camera was moving, but in the end it gave the movie an innocent touch.

This movie takes you into the life of some people you get to know just a little bit. it’s like going to a party and listening to other peoples conversations without yourself interrupting. It’s a pure view of the world in the eyes of John, Mia and Violet. It’s so pure you see their skin ‘unphotoshopped’ and thats refreshing.

I often feel being betrayed or lied about how things look like, how people look like or how locations, bars, streets look like. All the lights, all the make up, all the color boosts… sometimes its just too much.

To view a movie about kind of a real life story – it’s a nice idea to do that with real faces, real streets, real situations. And with that comes no explosion, no special close up event, no beautiful candle light sex scene… etc..

That said, this movie is definitively underrated. If you like Lost in Translation or Vicky Christina Barcelona – you may like this movie too. Just don’t expect beautiful colors, perfect romance or a Hollywood type movie in general.

Some of those who wander ARE lost.

Low user ratings are to be expected when the names of Keanu and Bojana fuel edge-of-your-seat anticipation. This however documents (partly videotaped by Keanu’s character) a 24 hour stretch in the lives of three people who are beyond clueless, they don’t even care if there is such a thing as clue, purpose or direction in life. They don’t even bother to define the relationships amongst the 3 of them. They don’t even care to find words to describe their feelings and their lack of any accomplishment gives new meaning to the word void. I do believe this to be a socially relevant document of the lives of some of the 20- or 30-something generation who are one level below the entitled ones. It’s there, it’s real, no comedy nor drama, but it did powerfully communicate awareness to me as a viewer.
