jesse sewell Tom Lowe's Timescapes is nothing less than amazing. Every piece of this film is aesthetically pleasing and will keep you entertained the whole way through. The people complaining in these other reviews are just being overcritical. I guess they can't respect a beautiful piece of cinematography. There really is not story, but Tom didn't need one at all, the sequences speak for themselves. The time that was put in to making this is a story of its own. Watching this on a Google TV looked absolutely stunning, it was super crisp and the picture was just super pleasing all together. If you enjoyed Baraka/Samsara you will definitely enjoy this. In my book it's a must watch.
babarasghar okay this is not for every joe!!! if u imagine that it took more than 12-15 minutes to just capture one second in this movie ... it took hours n hours waiting on the road side staring into NOTHINGNESS for something ... the right moment ... it took hundreds of man hour work to create those smooth transitions it took over 8 hours to cover 1000m on a vehicle which would otherwise took less than 36 secs on average it took days n days to compile all those shots ... spend hours on each frame ... developing it ... i mean this movie dnt need any story live ... script or any thing if some one realizes how much effort has gone into every second he views thats the whole story behind it ... i read few comments saying it has no story line :) what story u wana listen when u r seeing breathtakingly beautiful milky-way rising from east??? ... n someone even questioned the soundtrack :) well half of the world might not like a chinesse block buster just for the reason they couldn't understand a word ... it doesn't mean the movie was bad ... actually the viewers were ignorant ... they didn't understand it ... it was beyond their mental perception n understanding in short ... u can only appreciate something when u can see it with ur own eyes n soul ... this piece of art may be just a random compilation of various scenes with no link to it ... but for ages ... man used to worship fire and sun just because he didn't understand them properly ... one of the best video done by any time lapse videographer ...
Joachim T (imdb-4788) When the "movie" begins, the scenes take your breath away. This huge resolution, these beautiful landscapes and pictures of our night sky.But after 5 minutes I realized: that's it. There comes nothing more. Just a technical demo of what is possible with high resolution cams. Even the soundtrack is completely uninspired.I love nature documentations and I love movies like "Home" or "Baraka". Even when nothing is said and no story is told (like in "Baraka") it can be a great movie if the director has a vision of what he wants to show you. But TimeScapes has no vision or just is not able to give you a glimpse of it. It's just one scene after another and even worse - it just repeats the same motives over and over: flying pelicans, some valley, Joshua trees, night sky, same rocks over and over again. And then all over again from a slightly different angle. Mostly it shows dead things and rarely living things, animals or humans.I am really looking forward to what this technology can be used by a visionary film maker. TimeScapes is a documentation, not on the scenes it presents, but rather on how the best equipment can not make a good movie.
milad saboori ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! Tom lowe is a big Director who has created the first 4k-resolution movie to ever be sold to the public.This movie has taken things to the next level and has introduced new issues into the movie market. I am very grateful for having the opportunity to watch this documentary and would like to thank Tom Lowe for his kindness and willingness to share his knowledge with people all over the world.The camera work and imagery are truly breathtaking. Even without the big screen, you can feel the essence of nature,its beauty, and its spiritual connections. What a fantastic masterpiece!
