Too many fans seem to be blown away
everything you have heard about this movie is true.
View MoreGreat movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
View MoreClose shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
View MoreMore (no pun intended) effecting than so many feature length pictures, Mark Osborne's short wonder invigorates on so many levels. It's like a visceral maze of one man's soul slowly getting lost, and then neglecting to find it. Only in the end feeling the lack, attempting to reminisce about the lost innocence of childhood, whilst feeling the void inside.More shows how the human condition can get lost in it's search for artificial enlightenment. The genius is that it can tick all these boxes despite the fact that it's shorter than a cinema ad brake - And they're not even humans! The use of New Order's brilliant song Elegia is a wonderfully melancholic trip of emotions.It only received a nomination from Oscar, but in my opinion is so much more worthy than that. A must see.
View MoreThis is an extremely nice short movie about youth, life and how the people become the way that they actually hate. Our hero finds peace in his childhood memories and tries to recreate those moments today with his own invention. But he ends up in a situation where he is much further away to those moments than ever.. The movie also gives messages about the consumer society and elaborates on the loneliness of people. It is told in a very touching way with excellent music. This is the first time I am giving a 10/10 to a movie and I think it definitely deserves it. You can actually watch it online too. Watch it, you will not regret...
View MoreMore seems to get better and better with each viewing. Maybe it's because I come closer to tears each time. This story is the classic story of someone who finally is able to reach his dreams, but ends up using it as a means to get material gain, and finally, loses his soul. The gray of the drab, industrial world our everyman lives in is brilliantly and hauntingly contrasted by the colors of the "Happy Product", his world's artificial joy Du jour, the colorful, traditionally(yet so unconventionally) animated dream world of his "Bliss" goggles, and the tragically joyful children of his dreams, which drive him mad. The mood is set incredibly by New Order's "Elegia", a beautiful instrumental piece. This piece deserved the Oscar, which the good but just plain odd "Bunny" won instead. I mean, it was nice, but like most early Blue Sky works, the animation is clunky, and... rabbits becoming moths after death... but I digress. This is an incredible piece. Watch it online. Better yet, buy the new 2-disc DVD set, crammed to the bin with gooey clay features.
View More"More" is an absolute masterpiece. This little gem is the best short film ever. The music that plays is beautiful, and the story is similar to that of Terry Gilliam's "Brazil". Mr. Osbourne is a genious at what he does and I can't wait to see what he comes out with next. If you can, try to see "More". It is incredibly detailed, beautifully made, and is elusively attractive.10/10
