Icelandic post-rock band Sigur Rós melds its sonic landscape with visuals in this concert film/documentary.
Leave your thoughts about Inni.
| The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisThe best concert films achieve a marriage of sound and image that feels effortlessly harmonious, and in that regard Inni, a musical portrait of the Icelandic band Sigur Ros, leaves most of its genre in the dust. |
| The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Guy DixonThis is the perfect film for a band that was never trying to be something other than inventive. |
| Times-PicayuneMike ScottFilled with soft-focus close-ups, dreamy fades and bizarre angles, (it) nicely matches the dreamy, otherworldly quality of the band's music. |
| Toronto StarBruce DemaraYou see the beads of sweat, the grimaces of concentration, the rapturous moments. |
| VarietyJustin ChangWhereas 2007's well-traveled "Heima" reveled in scenic color imagery of the artists' homeland, this minimalist item strips the band down to its output, fashioning black-and-white performance footage into a uniquely spellbinding experience. |
| Los Angeles TimesMark OlsenSigur Rós fans are intensely devoted -- lore describes people passing out at shows in some sort of overwhelmed, ecstatic state -- and "Inni" finally gives some sense of why and how that might happen. |
| Slant MagazineJesse CataldoAs a document of a live show it looks like nothing else, but Vincent Morisset's greater aspirations, attempts to define or sum up the band through the inclusion of external material, come off as muddled and oblique. |
| L.A. WeeklyGustavo TurnerThe result is a hazy, shoegazy visual tone that is both elegiac and eulogistic - that is, at once meditative and funereal. |
| User ReviewMikey D"Sigur Ros" is "Victory Rose" in English. The literal translation doesn't seem to really mean anything, but after watching the phenomenal band's 2nd live performance film, "Inni," I have to say, I can nowfully imagine what a Victory Rose could be. The 16mm texture elevates the music to a level unbeknownst to humankind yet. I've never been a big Sigur Ros fan (guilty to admit I only started listening to them about a year ago), but that's all about to change beginning tonight. |
