Ellipsis

If you love "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" set on one night, then this movie' for you! Watch it, fulfill it, Love It!

I started watching this film knowing that it was set in Sydney, I always like to watch Australian films. I had no idea what to expect however I can 10/10 say I loved this film. It was so beautiful, random and brilliant and I haven't watched a film I enjoyed this much in ages. It reminded me that to have an adventure you need to take a risk. I loved the realness of the film and the connection/friendship shared amongst the two lead characters. It reminded me of the chance encounter I had with one of my now long term friends. I don't usually write reviews but something about this film moved me and so I decided to write this review. If you have not watched this I think it is worth watching.

I stumbled upon this movie with a bit of time to kill, I'd never heard of it and was not expecting much. I was hooked within the first couple of minutes and could literally not take my eyes off it. The two stars are so natural, you almost feel like you're intruding on their conversations. It's a gentle movie, a conversational movie with some nice moments of humour. I loved it and to play their game. How many times have I seen this movie? - 1 How many great acting performances were in this movie? - 2 What mark out of 10 would you give this movie? - 27

Ellipsis joins the list of movies where boy meets girl and they spend the next 24 hours exploring the metropolitan city around them and discovering each others inner core.

With 'Before Sunrise', 'Before Sunset', 'Before We Go', 'Already Tomorrow in Hong Kong' preceding this movie "Ellipsis" joins a family of movies with similar plot lines. But what makes Ellipsis memorable is the script and the charm of the two main characters.

Well worth watching - give it a look!

I really had no idea what to expect when I started watching this movie. But I must say, I enjoyed it very much. The 2 main people seemed perfect for each other and I am sure each had the most memorable night for a long time if not their life. Neither would have thought bumping into each other in the street would have led to such an eventful day/night. The phone repairer, short glimpse of his life, also food for thought... I am a Melburnian and remember the few ventures into Sydney, brought back some memories. The writer, director has done an excellent job of this movie. To keep and hold my attention without the usual action as in most movies... It reminded me of movies like "Before Sunrise", "Before Sunset" with Ethan Hawke... I think most people who will watch this will like it. I could have probably given it a ten, but as a teacher once told me, when I was used to score perfect 100s in most subjects, he only gave me 99 for Arabic calligraphy, with the explanation of "Who is to say that your handwriting is so perfect that it can't be surpassed?"
