Wonderful character development!

Nice effects though.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

I recommende this fascinating movie of Mia Hansen-Løve inspired in your mother life´s. I question myself why this movie was not in the Cannes? The shot is wonderfull with scenes of everyday life in Paris, in beach trip and mountain refuge (Grenoble).It´s a short movie (1h30min) which made me like it. Isabelle Huppert have a magnific actuation. However, the main character has 40 years and Huppert more than 60. Ok, this was not a problem. Sometimes the main character was a typical Frances boring, with gesture, expressions and customs that only the French understand. It reminded me a lot of my experiences in France, and that was very good. The final is very intersting followed by The Fleetwoods - Unchained Melody. I conclude that freedom must always be present in our lives, and that freedom and time can solve any problem life´s, as unemployment, love, disappointment, etc. I really liked it. My note is 7/10, but almost 8/10. R - 7/10

Things to Come< is what makes each person's life move on, but it's only when everything happens differently from what was expected it really becomes life.

Gave it 2 because of good photography and location shots. I watched in the sincere and desperate hope of superior GILF Isabelle Huppert getting smutty, cos you know, it's a French film innit? And they always get their kit off don't they? Instead I got a pretentious French philosophical waffle-a-thon that left me in a Nihilistic post Dioginistic trance with Platonic overtones. Watching paint dry would rival this for entertainment value. It appears to be a vanity piece for the director/writer to demonstrate they studied philosophy.

Until this movie I never quite got the hype for Mia Hansen-Løve. Her slice-of-life, semi- autobiographical movies seemed forgettable to me. Maybe Hansen-Løve is growing as an artist, or maybe it's just Huppert. Whatever it is, Things to Come, is a movie that's stuck in my mind, a beautiful portrait of a woman whose life is upended just as she is entering the final third of her life. The great French actress Isabelle Huppert plays Nathalie (based on Hansen-Løve's own mother). A successful philosophy professor with two grown children, a fellow philosopher for a husband, and an ailing mother, she is comfortably settled in her life. But as the movie continues on we watch as the things that Nathalie considered so much a part of her, change, dissolve, disintegrate. I'll admit it, I was actually initially reluctant to watch the movie because the idea of seeing a woman having everything taken away from her seemed almost too sad to bear. And yet Things to Come is a surprisingly joyful movie. Nathalie isn't an automaton, she cries as the things she once counted on as part of her life are no more, but at the same time she picks herself up, dusts herself off and goes on.
