Introspectum Motel

Watched this movie recently and it was totally worth it! Great movie with a great plot and a great performance from the actors. The twists towards the end are amazing and they keep you on your toes throughout the movie. Really enjoyed watching it and I recommend it to everyone!

Watched this my friend and we both really enjoyed the screenplay, cast, and story. Breathtaking scenery as well with several twists throughout. Must see as brilliant film making and story.

I really enjoyed the slow-burner that is "Introspectum Motel". Marcel Dorian delivers an introspective, moody, and atmospheric two-hander, set largely in a chic but desolate hotel. The dialogue was intriguing, filled with double entrees about "chasing mice", "the golden rule", and other brain-tickling metaphors. Also some great quotes - "F***k Christmas" was particularly good. The widescreen anamorphic cinematography presented in 2.35:1 on what seemed to be a modest budget, felt expansive and captured the interior spaces beautifully. There's a great twist approximately midway through I won't spoil here but is worth sticking around for.

This is a film about infidelity & revenge. There is nudity & a straight forward storyline. I found it very pretentious as the writers have the characters spurting out the ethical discussions of men and cheating in motels. It is almost as though the writers are expecting applauses from the viewers for this insight but they shall not receive any from me. It is far too preachy & borderline encroaching on misandry. Women can cheat too & ought to accept their part in this! I found the acting from the male protagonist Philippe (Marcel Dorian) very distracting. He may have the looks but his acting range is somewhat lacking or limited. He reminds me of Arnold Schwarzenegger in that his lines delivery seems very robotic & perhaps wooden. Furthermore, none of the characters are likeable. Perhaps the writers did this to show that everyone is flawed but it made me not invest in any one.
