Fraught with over obvious symbolism, Hartley's early feature is nonetheless a joy to watch. Hal here shows us his uncanny ability to cast his characters perfectly came early in his career.
Adrienne Shelley is a near perfect foil to herself, equal parts annoying teen burgeoning in her sexuality (though using sex for several years); obsessed with doom and inspired by idealism gone wrong she is deceptively – and simultaneously – complex and simple. Her Audrey inspires so many levels of symbolism it is almost embarrassingly rich (e.g., her modeling career beginning with photos of her foot – culminating her doing nude (but unseen) work; Manhattan move; Europe trip; her stealing, then sleeping with the mechanics wrench, etc.)
As Josh, Robert Burke gives an absolutely masterful performance. A reformed prisoner/penitent he returns to his home town to face down past demons, accept his lot and begin a new life. Dressed in black, and repeatedly mistaken for a priest, he corrects everyone ("I'm a mechanic"), yet the symbolism is rich: he abstains from alcohol, he practices celibacy (is, in fact a virgin), and seemingly has taken on vows of poverty, and humility as well. The humility seems hardest to swallow seeming, at times, almost false, a pretense. Yet, as we learn more of Josh we see genuineness in his modesty, that his humility is indeed earnest and believable. What seems ironic is the character is fairly forthright in his simplicity, yet so richly drawn it becomes the viewer who wants to make him out as more than what he actually is. A fascinatingly written character, perfectly played.
The scene between Josh and Jane (a wonderful, young Edie Falco . . . "You need a woman not a girl") is hilarious . . . real. But Hartley can't leave it as such and his trick, having the actors repeat the dialogue over-and-over becomes frustratingly "arty" and annoying . . . until again it becomes hilarious. What a terrific sense of bizarre reality this lends the film (like kids in a perpetual "am not"/"are too" argument).
Hartley's weaves all of a small neighborhood's idiosyncrasies into a tapestry of seeming stereotypes but which delves far beneath the surface, the catalyst being that everyone believes they know what the "unbelievable truth" of the title is, yet no two people can agree (including our hero) on what exactly that truth is. A wonderful little movie with some big ideas.
每一位死去的灵，都被困在一段死前的时间，并不断重复着死亡的整个过程。
还可以吧，叙事顺序上下了点心思，有一点点恐怖游轮意思
豆瓣分數過低，多加1星，沒想到當年遊巴黎最無聊的景點，背後有這一段感人故事。結合理性科技工藝+感性主角自己的愛情與堅持，不懂大家批評愛情戲多餘是什麼意思？A的是他的謬思，他的生命動力來源
太暗了加上剪辑稀碎，看的人很无语。然后主角拉胯，加上类似于昆池岩的镜头晃得头晕😵
韩国恐怖片质量一年不如一年，法术穿越，输出靠吼，鬼格分裂，致敬闪灵，一惊一乍，故弄玄虚。法术版昆池岩，全靠金康宇演技硬撑了90分钟。
恐怖片爱好者不要错过这部！！！韩国拍恐怖片确实是有一套！悬疑烧脑！音效和恐怖氛围营造极其出色！真的吓人~我现在极其后悔晚上看的这片！影片最后是有些乱了。不过整体还是非常不错了。
说实话，看到最后大概明白了，但是细节没怎么看明白，男主到底什么时候死的。懒得重刷。
还以为是2000年代的韩国恐怖片呢，挺吓人。
以上。
没看完就弃了，太慢了。三人去拍鬼屋，神经兮兮的。即使告诉我后面好看也不想看了。
这种埋藏细节的推理片一般要看两边，真是浪费时间啊！
穿越的有点扯，通灵还穿越了。恐怖氛围还行，和昆池岩比差多了
时空交错，循环，驱魔，鬼屋探险，宗教等各种元素揉在一起，又有细节，音效和妆容加持，其实蛮出彩的。
嗯….我真的没看懂🥲太黑了，我在屏幕里看见的是我….
真的
虎头蛇尾的 而且鬼也不太吓人 故事老套然后结局讲的不清不楚 最后还是看豆瓣的解析才知道男主也死了……
哈哈 看完这个电影 我被女主的大眼睛给吸引了 我要去追性爱自修室 三部一起应该很爽。
单纯的鬼片，没有其他韩国恐怖片映射社会现实的深度，没意思。。。有啥看不懂的，无聊，好古老的剧情。。。包括时间线重叠，已死不知道自己死，吓人方式和剧情，起码是20年前的老模式
介绍写的不准确，应该是艾菲尔铁塔背后的偷情故事，法国人这脑袋里面装的全是情爱这些事，画面还行，6.3
