Leave your thoughts about 7 Splinters in Time.
| Los Angeles TimesKimber MyersTrying to straddle the space between “Primer,” “Dark City” and “Memento,” 7 Splinters in Time ends up a frustrating trip to no man’s land. Despite an ambitious premise and style, the neo-noir sci-fi indie is a fractured narrative that can’t achieve what its lofty ideas intend. |
| VarietyNick SchagerA time-traveler becomes fragmented in disastrous ways, and so too does the film itself, in “7 Splinters in Time,” edited to ribbons in a schizoid manner that likely only makes complete sense to its maker. |
| User Reviewbcnu1138This movie is sure to receive lots of bad reviews as it's an original, non-formulaic effort, as was George Lucas' THX1138 when it first came out. THX also received ghastly reviews originally, but eventually became an acknowledged classic. 7 Splinters is one of the most surreal movies I've ever seen, reminding me of the German Expressionist films of the last century, and the work of Maya Deren. This was a thoroughly unique movie experience and I would encourage the viewer to approach it with an open mind. My wife and I enjoyed it greatly and though it seems rather disjointed (appropriately considering the subject matter) it does achieve a kind of coherence by the end. I rate it a 10 for it's fantastic narrative, visual, soundtrack originality, noir/expressionist sensibility, and it's eventual (and perhaps unexpected) coherence by the conclusion. Ironically (on a personal note) it also features one of my favorite now-classic cars of all time, which fits perfectly into the dreamlike visual milieu of the film. |
| User ReviewLara MA real cult movie, very thought provoking and different to mainstream. Loved it very much. Great storyline. |
| User ReviewMichael FThis is the kind of film that needs a couple watches to really click. It's got a real twist of an ending, and the entire movie is a great ride. It's sure to be a cult classic in years to come. FUN MOVIE! Check it out! |
| User ReviewMichael M"7 Splinters In Time" Thursday night my wife Susie and I attended the premier of the new film "7 Splinters In Time." The film is a science fiction murder mystery. All the actors do an amazing job, and bring a certain reality to an unreal world. I was especially impressed with actor Greg Bennick, he fills the screen with a unique characterization. As someone who has been a long time aficionado of science fiction, I can truly say this film is unlike anything I have ever seen. The directors choice of multiple film formats creates an amazing visual journey. Directer, writer, and composer Gabriel Judet-Weinshel is an up and coming genius of film. If you want to see a totally different film experience, don't miss "7 Splinters In Time." |
| User ReviewBlake LMindset is critical when watching 7 Splinters in Time; it is one of the most unique and stylistically original films I've seen. When you embrace the style of the film, I think it gives way to some moments of truth and beauty. It is funny too, from the absurd rantings of Greg Bennick to hilarious barbs from Lynn Cohen and Austin Pendleton. George Nicholas's cinematography - spanning an array of film and digital formats - is truly a feast for the eyes. 7 Splinters is certainly a strange film in places and there are moments where the plot could stand to breathe more, but it is unlike any film I've seen before. Go into it with an open mind and I think you may like what you find along the way. |
