Ellipsis (2017) Reviews

  • Almost mesmerising!

    I really had no idea what to expect when I started watching this movie. But I must say, I enjoyed it very much. The 2 main people seemed perfect for each other and I am sure each had the most memorable night for a long time if not their life. Neither would have thought bumping into each other in the street would have led to such an eventful day/night. The phone repairer, short glimpse of his life, also food for thought... I am a Melburnian and remember the few ventures into Sydney, brought back some memories. The writer, director has done an excellent job of this movie. To keep and hold my attention without the usual action as in most movies... It reminded me of movies like "Before Sunrise", "Before Sunset" with Ethan Hawke... I think most people who will watch this will like it. I could have probably given it a ten, but as a teacher once told me, when I was used to score perfect 100s in most subjects, he only gave me 99 for Arabic calligraphy, with the explanation of "Who is to say that your handwriting is so perfect that it can't be surpassed?"

  • Beautifully observed and performed piece about being in the moments

    This movie had me from the get go. Knowing it was the directorial debut of award winning Aussie actor David Wenham, allowed me to rest into the fact that this would be, and was, a lovingly crafted and distinctive piece from an actor that has made his mark as a versatile and unique voice in cinema. I am biased in part of my enjoyment of 'Ellipsis' as it is set in Sydney, my hometown, and it reminded me of my youth and drifting around the city with a friend or looking for love in all the wrong places. 'Ellipsis' is very 'now'; with technology being the conduit for the two main characters (and the third; less successfully realised in my view) to serendipitously meet and connect; ironically through a smashed mobile phone. If a film with lots of action and plot turns and fast edits is your bag; then keep away from 'Ellipsis'. This is a meditative and at times dreamy meandering through what it is to be young in a bustling city and to form an unlikely bond. Emily Barclay first came to my attention in 2005 with 'In my father's den' a New Zealand feature that won her an award in her homeland. Two years later, 'Suburban Mayhem' an Australian film netted Emily the AFI for Best Actress. I have not seen much of her in the last decade; sadly, but she really shines in 'Ellipsis'. With a natural ease and presence, Emily's 'Viv' is ultimately the more fascinating of the pair for me, but that said Benedict Samuel has such a lovely screen warmth and also gives a performance lacking in self consciousness; thereby allowing the viewer to enjoy 'Jasper' at face value, but to also get some hint at his past; especially the trauma he divulges early on in the narrative. Barclay and Samuel have great chemistry, and David Wenham's direction; combined with what I read was considerable improvisation (and the fact that the two leads are credited as co-writers) shows a great affection for the actors and in broader terms; a love of life and the power to be in the moment(s) as our two leads find themselves. The secondary plot line feels less successful as a technician at a phone store is given several sequences which peek behind his initial austere approach to Viv, showing a sensitive and decent human being. There is a lot of decency in this film. That is not a criticism. In a year where our local industry is making multiple horror and trauma stories; it is refreshing to spend 83 minutes in the company of ordinary folk; enjoying spontaneity and forming a richly textured connection, as a result of their wandering around the city of Sydney for the better part of 24 hours. I loved Megan Washington's simple but elegant score, which added to the romantic tinge of 'Ellipsis'. I had wistful feelings through parts of this experience, and enjoyed seeing where are two heroes found themselves from one moment to the next. Some of the sequences felt more natural than others, and the geography had me a little baffled at times; but that's because i've spent my entire life on foot in this fabulous city. Small quibbles aside, I am really impressed with Wenham's first outing as a director; and delighted to see the great Emily Barclay demonstrate the immense promise she displayed over a decade ago. 'Ellipsis' may not win AACTA awards; but I do hope it finds an audience. It is a beautifully observed piece both visually and textually. I'm really excited as to what Mr Wenham will do next....

    I stumbled upon this movie with a bit of time to kill, I'd never heard of it and was not expecting much. I was hooked within the first couple of minutes and could literally not take my eyes off it. The two stars are so natural, you almost feel like you're intruding on their conversations. It's a gentle movie, a conversational movie with some nice moments of humour. I loved it and to play their game.

  • Another in a string of like movies

    Ellipsis joins the list of movies where boy meets girl and they spend the next 24 hours exploring the metropolitan city around them and discovering each others inner core. With 'Before Sunrise', 'Before Sunset', 'Before We Go', 'Already Tomorrow in Hong Kong' preceding this movie "Ellipsis" joins a family of movies with similar plot lines. But what makes Ellipsis memorable is the script and the charm of the two main characters. Well worth watching - give it a look!

    Maybe Sydney is the real star here as our two thrown-together protagonists spend a day and a night wandering through the summer sparkling sights of the harbour city? Ellipsis is a really pleasant remake of Before Sunrise, the first of the Ethan Hawke/Julie Delpy "Before ..." trilogy. It's nicely done, the leads are strong and engaging, settings are picturesque and Sydneysiders may viscerally identify with the Sydney summer and youthful romance it portrays. Really worth watching.
