Wayne K @WayneKelso 3 days ago A potentially intriguing story about survival and the future of the human race, hamstrung by languid pacing and a slate of apathetic performances, Clarie Denis’ High Life tries it’s best to make the scenario at it’s heart plausible but never quite gets there. Nobody acts like a regular human being, arguments pop up over nothing and scenes of Robert Pattinson doing very little get stretched out to pad the runtime. I’ll applaud it for keeping the cast small, but even then you recognise many of the players more for the big names playing the characters rather than the characters themselves. Little is done to explain the current state of the human race and what might have brought about this mission or it’s potential benefits. It often plays out like a teenage soap opera, with bitchy comments and fights over the smallest things. I really wanted to like it, but there was just no getting into it for me. An interesting germ of an idea that fails to sprout. See more Pedro Henrique C @Pedro2005 May 30, 2026 High Life (2019) It's a real waste of time. This movie is awful, with a confusing script that makes absolutely no sense. It's a real waste of a main cast. See more Raph C @RaphChou May 19, 2026 The film’s slow pace allows you to savor every scene and imagine the possible outcomes. It’s movies like this that make me turn away from TV shows. A gem! See more Priya C. @Sci-FiTrekkie Apr 30, 2026 Claire Denis does a phenomenal job with High Life. It's thought provoking and a cinematic masterpiece. It's slow and requires patience from the viewer but its worth it. The story is very nonlinear but you're able to piece things together as the film goes along. My only issue with the film was some of the content can be triggering and upsetting. See more Biohazard 0 @RT07871911 Apr 6, 2026 Rubbish. Artistic nonsense. 8 million USD wasted. Belongs in the bin with Marty Supreme. Do not waste your time. More proof critics are idiots. See more Arun S @Snuffelupecus Apr 5, 2026 Fantastic movie. Thought provoking with solid performances by the cast. WTF is it that people don't like about this movie? See more Read all reviews
