Stay (2005)

I watched this movie back in 2005, and for some reason forgot that I'd even seen it. Earlier tonight I was cleaning out some DVD sleeves from this old case of burned off movies (most of them more movies that I had completely forgotten about) and I came across this movie again. The only thing I could remember is that this movie had a killer ending that I really liked. It is now 1:38 am, and I just finished watching this film for the second time and I think I understand why I could barely remember anything about it, it's because it fucked my mind the first time around just like it did this time. Not to say it's not a good movie, it's decent. I mean, if you're into these types of physiological movies it would certainly be worth checking out.

Whoa what a trippy movie! I was so confused through the majority of it. I love this film. I know it probably doesn't seem like a good thing to be confused by a movie but it's hard to confuse me when it comes to films and the fact that I got answers at the end makes it a bloody good movie in my eyes. It was nothing like I was expecting at all. I thought the cinematography was excellent and the fact the scenes were cut together to match the characters confusion made a real difference to me. The scenes flowed and interconnected at first and then became confused and disjointed just like the main character did. I'd put this one with Donnie Darko and The Butterfly Effect. Not because it was as good as them (very close though) but because it was in that same sort of concept and perspective....Read more
