Vivarium

Just plain creepy (and boring). Aliens mimicking & observing humans in order to live among them and wait for them to literally & metaphorically dig their own graves. The end result was a replacement of one dying alien with another in order to perpetuate an endless real estate trap. I hated that there was no additional explanation or meaning. Poor execution. Will not rewatch or recommend and I love Sci-Fi.

The characters are caught in a tedious, inescapable, soul-sucking suburban hellscape... but it can't possibly be worse than the experience of watching this endlessly annoying movie.

Largely pointless yet immensely immersive. I liked the visuals.

I'd never heard of this film until now, which having now seen it, confirms once again that most people are incapable of appreciating films that communicate an important message about our current anthropocenic crises and in a way that genuinely makes the viewer uncomfortable. I might have a warped perception of reality, but the story here is what I see in most people with kids these days. Unfortunately, these people are unlikely to watch the film as their kids are screaming or woofing at them.

I don't really see the horror in this one at all. Quite weird that is for sure and I like that and it had some good scenes but in the end it just felt empty.

Very eerie, novel concept, well-supported by cinematics, well-acted. Character's aren't deep, but they don't need to be and this in fact ties in with the movie premise.

What was that? Et?

I appreciated the critique of "social contracts" and it was well-acted. But a little heavy handed and cliche… C

Super creepy, in a good way. Doesn't justify the runtime, however.

Rubbish

I liked the atmosphere of the film. It has that eerie feeling to it the whole way through. First act was strong, but it did fall off quite fast. I found the plot to be pretty thin and weak, almost as if it wanted to offer us a lot but gave us much less.

An interesting concept that is wasted by lackluster execution.
