One of the most important directors working today, and this is his best film to date.
One of the most important directors working today, and this is his best film to date.
I don't understand what the fuss was about. I didn't find it all that original, creative or intuitive. Instead, I found it kind of recycled and obvious in theme.
A little slow at first but worth staying with as it feels as though there will be a great climax to the film. Don't hold you breath though, I enjoyed the film but the ending, well there really wasn't one. There are two shoclking moments in the film, the first a little upsetting a...( read more)
A movie that makes mind work more than it should...The main theme ( accept or deny that you are guilty) is smart presented. The freedom to choose the end you like, makes you think of this story quite a few hours.
This movie is one of the most subdued thrillers ever. It's not perfect in any sense of the word, but certainly very different in atmosphere and presentation.
Admittedly, it is a bit of a letdown. Very little actually happens in the film, and a large portion of the plot is left ...( read more)
Such a dark film, a modern day noir, great performances and excellent direction, though this may not be for everyone. Well worth watching, make sure you glue yourself to the screen otherwise it gets confusing.
Lots of long takes, so you should pay attention. Leaves a little to be desired in the end though.
Utterly pointless and frustrating. The end does nothing to resolve anything that happened in the course of the film and makes it seem like a total waste of time.
An unconventional thriller to say the least. It has some interesting ideas but ultimatly the film is very unsatisfying with no actual resolution and far too much is left to audience speculation. In some categories this befits the thriller genre as audiences are expected to know a...( read more)
Hmm....more artsy than entertaining DEFINITELY, and that is good up until the point where it just gets boring, for me at least. Best moment [WARNING/SPOILER]: the suicide scene, using the same idea as Tesis in the real-life filming shot, the one constant shot, making it seem comp...( read more)
an intense and very subtle thriller that requires repeat viewing. at first it seems like your conventional thriller about a family who recieves videos and disturbing pictures, but this film provides an attack on society and all of us as people and what we are like and just how pr...( read more)
At first I thought it was Haneke's most commercial work to date, but this impression vanished as soon as the film ended. Like he did previously with Funny Games but in much more elegant and subtle way, in Caché Haneke plays with the audience's expectations using the thriller genr...( read more)
Thank goodness someone helped me out with the ending (apparently, I blinked). But now that I know what I missed at the end, it's a good movie.
Really have to concentrate in this one, watching it twice would be a good idea. Clever, bit haunting but it brings up some good points to ponder on.
A gripping film from beginning to end, Cache raises questions about guilt and responsibility for one's actions. It starts as a creepy suspense thriller when Georges (Auteuil) receives surveillance-esque video tapes of his house and life, accompanied by frightening child-like draw...( read more)
A good psychological thriller with a good cast ! But, didn't really like the ending.
This movie was riveting, it left the entire audience is awe, expecting and wanting more.
A truely great thriller. But as many reviews and critics have said: blink and you'll miss the twist.
I for one, did not miss the twist and it was a great feeling of knowing and satisfation. It is a fantastic film, with its quick and unforgiving scenes of violence (it's the f...( read more)
Eerily perfect in every aspect, except for the story and script, which are too subtly presented for the audience to keep up with, and the ending is very unsatisfying. But all in all I liked this film, although few will. I thought it was very unsettling and masterfully made, perha...( read more)
Great movie by Haneke. This guy is in my opinion one of the most underated director of all time.
Great movie with an outsanding, superbe Daniel Auteuil. One scene spécialmeent freaked me but the whole story was well written. UN bé-mol, la fin, too abrupt...
This is a movie to be seen by people who understand french cinema but still i found it very disapointing. It's reall sad that a movie with such an important and imaginative topic which can be played with in many ways coming with many ideas was contented by just keeping it narrowe...( read more)
I didn't quite get the reviews on front of the DVD. 5 stars, 4 stars brilliant. I just didn't see it. A lot of the themes and the plot within Hidden, seemed all too familar too me. The stalker thing has been done soo many times and the who dunnit things as well, just put me righ...( read more)
