Blackberry Way by The Move

(0 Ratings)

Track

"I’m not from the ’60s, but ask anyone who was a teenager in the ’60s and they’ll tell you The Move were the most important band to see live. They were the first band to smash up their guitars, the first to be really heavy. But they were a pop band, and had hit after hit. I guess what put it all in a bad light was Roy Wood went on to Wizzard. That Christmas song (‘I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday’) – people look at that and go, how can he be any good?”"

"One of the most thrilling cinematic experiences I’ve had in a long while. Yes, Nic Cage is great. But it’s Andrea Riseborough’s unforgettable Mandy who holds this film together — her wisdom, her undeniable power, her freaky witch-wavelength — all of these qualities are potent in their presence and doubly so in their absence. For me, this is a film about all the hell that breaks loose when we continue to desecrate a woman. Plain and simple, it’s not pretty when we pull down The Goddess. Heavy metal feminism at its most unsparing."

"The most influential rock film ever made (A Hard Day’s Night is probably second). It’s more than thirty years old, but it’s still the default reference for every rock group with a sense of humor (even if none of the band members were alive when it was originally released). It somehow has more cultural sticking power than most of the music it satirizes. There’s never been a real documentary about a real band that captures the nature of heavy rock as deftly as this unreal documentary about a fake band."

I think this is my fourth book by the author and i know she writes some crazy things but i really struggled with this. I didn't get her justification behind the killing of the mafia guy at the beginning. Why not just hit him over the head with something hard and heavy? Why go hunt out the gun hidden in the apartment?

Oh, well. DNF @ 26%

I felt nothing for the characters or the storyline just because i didnt understand her reasoning behind the above incident.

Not for me.

Heavy sci-fi greatness!
Let me start by saying I love movies love 2001: A Space Odyssey, Memento, Under the Skin, even The Holy Mountain or The Fountain. In other words, movies that are nonlinear, vague, ambiguous or maybe lack a large amount of point.

That being said, based on reviews and some I had read I had kind of expected this to be a crossbreed of The Mist and Aliens and it was kind of that, but so much more.

I love "heavy" sci-fi like Solaris, 2001, Interstellar, movies that make you think and just aren't about explosions and CGI. This movie does have exceptional visuals and the music score is amazing, but the story and ideas here are very compelling and not something you see in most movies made nowadays.

I am not putting down those who disliked the film, I love a great movie debate and respect others' opinions. I just thought this movie is exceptionally unique and striking both visually and emotionally.

I was really invested in the story and couldn't wait to see how it turned out.

If you love movies that are out there, give this one a shot.
