İlk 2006 veya 2007'de izlemiştim sanırım. Hatta filmi CD olarak almıştım. Sanırım bir yerlerde hala duruyor. Antonio Banderas yönetmenliğini yapmış olduğu için biraz daha dikkate almıştım. Sert bir anlatımı var aslında. Gerçeklerle yüzleşmek gibi.

Az önce Planet Sinema'da izledim yeniden. (2013 04 02)

"Jaco Van Dormael's "Mr. Nobody" is the best film of 2009, and nobody in the US saw it. Though the film (shot in English no less) received wide release in Europe, it was deemed "too smart" for American audiences and never got a single screening here. This is a travesty because "Mr. Nobody" is one of the finest examples of a nonlinear narrative ever shot. It explores philosophical topics from the Big Bang theory to the Superstring theory to the concept of parallel universes. It manages to intimately follow a protagonist from the moment of his conception, through numerous lives, for 118 year. It thoughtfully and elegantly explores the themes of birth, childhood, marriage, love, divorce, depression and death. With its beautifully layered exploration of moral and philosophical themes, "Mr. Nobody" makes "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" look like "Gnomeo and Juliet.""

http://movie-on.blogspot.com/2012/08/mr-nobody.html

"Sometimes I make really bad decisions. Deciding to skip this film was one of them. I don't like the genre (fantasy/sci-fi), cast -especially lead- did not appeal me and most confusing, an European/Canadian production in English. So I forgot about it even when film did quite good in the 2009/2010 festival season. Big mistake. Read more..."

What is my future???

You have to make the right choice. As long as you don't choose, everything remains possible..
Any of the choices you make is the right one! Every path is the right path. Everything could have been anything else and it would have just as much meaning.


Each & Every day of our life we have so many choices to make..Right from what time to get up, to what breakfast do we have, what do we wear to work, what kind of attitude I wear today, what profession to choose, to whom should we marry, where should we live, etc.. Life sometimes feels a plethora of choices..And even after making a choice, we deliberate..did we make the right one??? Read more"

"Will 'Twilight' fans get on board for sci-fi story? And does that even matter?
When the movie version of Stephenie Meyer's best-selling novelThe Hostopens Friday, theTwilight saga author's followers will sink their teeth into it to see if it's worthy of welcoming into their universe.
They should brace themselves for an alien experience..."

Review:

http://www.aintitcool.com/node/61712
"I’ve never walked out of a movie in my time on this earth. Not once. I’ve always found that even in the instances of witnessing something truly terrible, there is something to be learned from the experience, specifically what not to do in making a good movie, and also what to look for in recognizing another bad one. Besides, we can’t go through life only taking in good films. It skews the scale of taste, as how can you really know what is good, unless you’ve experienced the other end of the spectrum? So for that reason, even at the sacrifice of my own time, I’ve always tried to take something away from the terrible, never allowing myself to split early, in the hopes of salvaging my money from supporting such slop.

And then I met THE HOST, and I came about as close to walking out on a flick as I ever have before in all my movie-watching history. Within 15 minutes of the film’s opening, I absolutely wanted out. I wanted to get up out of my seat, and leave this abysmal adaptation of Stephenie Meyer’s novel behind, not wanting to give it another second of my time. However, I stayed the course, and I rode it out, knowing that was the only way I could commit a fully formed opinion of THE HOST. I wouldn’t be able to explain to you how atrocious this thing was if I only caught a 15-minute glimpse. Plus, what if, by some miracle, it got better? (It doesn’t.)

...

THE HOST is a terrible film with absolutely nothing positive going for it. Not the acting, not the filmmaking, not the art direction, not the costumes... nothing. Anyone sitting through this who isn’t a 11-year-old Meyer reader is asking for all the misery they have coming to them. This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen, and the one lesson I took away from it is that if I was ever to make a film, whatever they did in THE HOST, do the opposite.

Read MORE..."

other review:

"Saw this in the theaters yesterday, I thought it was pretty good... even though they did not capture the details of other planets in this one but they stuck to the book."
