VICE presents hipster feminist black & white subtitled foreign film


Dear VICE, i used to love you, especially that i'm an old Montrealer myself. But lately, there's just waay too much of you everywhere. Feels slightly overexposed & devalued. Douche-y. Like those plaid shirts & beards & skinnies. Oh wait, i get it now, this is more of the monochrome goth thing.

p.s.
Also, this movie has obvious pretentious to coolness. But i am not very interested in coolness ideas of Iranian hipsters.

why did you like vice before

VICE was original once. Now it's just a generic self-parody.

reply

it's the same as it always was, just ubiquitous now

reply

Wow, and people say hipsters are the pretentious ones.

I get what you mean.
I'm a feminist man but this is the reality: This film is boring and I can't defend it just because the lead character is a woman and it was made by a woman. If we were to think like that, almost every gay movie should have all the awards in the world and let's face it - that's not going to happen and not because of the homosexual theme but how lame they usually are...this was not lame, it was just boring and pretentious. I get what she tried to do but the audience does not pay to see good intentious badly executed.

The lead character is a man...

You're too dumb and simple-minded for this fikm.

I think most vice docs suck but this movie was good. And i almost never watch new horror. At least vice is giving an Iranian feminist a voice. Hollywood only cares about Stan lee. About time there was something different.
also the graphic novel was coolio and i liked the music. 8/10 hope there is a sequel. Also didn't expect Iran made movie to have drugs and prostitution and even a nipple. I dont know *beep* about iran besides whats on the news so this came as a nice surprise.

Watch the film "A Separation." It's Iranian and one of the best films I saw that year.
