I don't think I fully understood the films various greek and old literature references. At points the accents were so thick I didn't understand the dialog. I dont fully know what I saw. But I was captivated the whole time. Eggers delivers another slow burn, but this time punctured with more humor and somehow an even slower pace. Pattinson and Dafoe deserve Oscars for their roles. This felt almost play like at points. Also I'm not kidding I took off points cause the accents were too thick.

Willem Dafoe continues to make the case for being one of the best actors alive, able to dance on the edge of overacting while remaining in masterful control of his craft like few others. Other than that I was less taken with the film than most others. It seemed less like a relatable story of sinking into madness that drew me into its web and more like a portrait of two assholes that began the story as assholes and remained assholes.

It's a beautifully designed and shot movie, sure. There are some moments of great acting, sure. But for all that, there's also lack of a compelling story, an overreliance on atmosphere and a shallow grasp at deep issues. Oh, and the ever-changing accents will throw you off so try to ignore that. I really don't know why people fell in love with this movie. Its potential is appealing, but the end result is blegh.

I'm not entirely sure what I watched. The acting and cinematography were great, but I feel like the plot was all over the place and just really... not that great in the end.

I don't even know where to begin with this one.Should it be the fact that every shot of the movie is pretty much a painting or the fact that the directing and the choice to make it black and white create a truly unsettling and unique atmosphere?Oh I know I should probably start from the two jaw-dropping performances at the center of the film or maybe the haunting,meaningful and thought-provoking ending.Well I guess I'll ever find out where to begin from, just know that this is a masterpiece.

Pretty well-shot -- despite the annoying square ratio -- "European" film about damnation and stuff like that following two crazy, drunk and horny fellas at a lighthouse -- the old one, Ahab-ish, tells stories and shit, while the other is just hard work and is not allowed to enter the lighthouse. Comic bits work -- they actually seem like a couple who's always fighting -- way better than the dreamy, fantasy, horror ones.

A movie that I must begrudgingly admit to respecting more for what it works to be, than enjoying for what it is. I don't question the talent of anyone involved, and there's visual and auditory intrigue for days. I don't know if its inaccessibility or I'm simply not clever enough to fully grasp what the movie wants from me. Now luckily this does crank things up in the back-half, cutting a frenetic pace and pulling this rating out. I wanted to love it, but I liked what I got, all the same.

A psychological horror film directed by Robert Eggers, "The Lighthouse" is a bizarre mind trip into madness. Robert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe's performances are haunting, mesmerizing and powerful. Shot in beautiful black and white, it looks like a modern film that was made in the 1930's. The cinematography and set pieces are amazing. Eggers directing and screenplay is unlike anything you've ever seen. "The Lighthouse" is a haunted masterpiece and one of the best films of the year.

One of those films that I can say I watched for the sake of watching but didn't enjoy much. Still, enough powerful moments and artful scenes to admire but I can only enjoy two men bickering and antagonizing each other for so long around a drunken cloud.

I'm still dreaming about The Lighthouse, even months later. I would describe it as the Shining on a remote island, and I think that sticks. Two amazing performances elevate an already beautiful movie, but it doesn't even really feel like a film most of the time. I was so sucked in, in my small indie theater seat, that I could swear I was stranded on that island with them. A fantastic film.

If there is overacting, I also want to propose such a thing as "overdirecting" for the movies of Robert Eggers. He is obviously talented, but I just feel that he pushes things too much. There is an overload of style but no flow. All in all, a nice premise with some wonderful moments and fine acting, but like "The Witch", I never get fully emerged. Will certainly watch the next Eggers picture though, he is a very interesting director.
