Review of High Life

High Life (2018)
10/10
Dealing with our truth
26 August 2019
I always read the one star reviews first. This movie has attracted some of the best samples. Quite a polarizing one ! Indeed if one is looking for a typical space flick, frustration must loom early on the horizon. High Life requires you to switch to brain waves that are hardly ever solicited in Hollywood. Some will find it boring and slow. For those who want, get ready for a mesmerizing and unsettling trip in your own deep space. It is an experience you will remember long after the end.

High Life does not make you feel good, it is a reminder of who we are at both macro and micro levels : we won't ever escape from our planet, nor from our inner selves. We are all prisoners. Birth is the entrance, death is the exit, our best hope is poetry.
