Product Description: The story of two separated lovers one of whom is a famous ice skater who are reunited in new york so he can sign divorce papers. Her entourage greets him warmly but the patriarch of the clan has a malevolent plan of apalling proportion that endangers th couplee lives. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 09/13/2005 Starring: Joaquin Phoenix Sean Penn Run time: 106 minutes Rating: R
Amazon.com: Joaquin Phoenix, Claire Danes, and a startlingly coiffured Sean Penn topline this visually striking hybrid of science fiction and art-house drama from Dogme 95 co-creator Thomas Vinterberg (The Celebration). Phoenix and Danes are a recently separated Polish couple in the year 2021 who find their marital troubles overshadowed by a spate of strange and ominous phenomena plaguing the Earth--people mysteriously drop dead in their tracks, cold snaps threaten a new Ice Age, and in Uganda, citizens must anchor themselves to the ground or risk sailing off into space. Add to this confluence of oddities a subplot involving clones of Danes, a murder plot hatched by her brother, and Penn as Phoenix's eccentric sibling who periodically weighs in from a plane, and you've got an occasionally impenetrable (and not particularly romantic) picture that may baffle fans of the stars' Hollywood efforts. However, the cinematography by Anthony Dod Mantle is beautiful, and those inclined towards more eclectic movie consumption might find some chilly treats to chew on here. --Paul Gaita

Totally confused & stupid script with mediocre acting. Overall a bad movie; but I've seen worse, so I gave it 2 stars.

this is a tough film - tough on the emotions, tough on the heart, and tough on the mind. it is illogical. non-linear, slightly confused - and yet not, it is oddly paced like a dance that is slightly off beat, and yet supremely well crafted, beautifully filmed - every frame a like a dictionary of meaning. it has a bit of the 'twin peaks' about it; dream like, slightly threatening. but the performances are superb; Danes is amazing and Phoenix, well i could not take my eyes of him.

This movie is visually beautiful and extremely well cast. I think my problem with it is that I tried to make it make sense in some way. I kept looking for hidden meaning and symbolism and could never find a connection. The two main characters are a married couple who have been seperated by the business of their lives. He is a quiet professor and she is a world famous champion figure skater. While they have been seperated, the world has begun to go crazy with strange weather, unusual deaths and people ... Read More

Of course this film wouldn't be appreciated in this day and time. It's about romantic love in the chaos of world change. We have none of that right now. Love is pre-nupts and celebrity merging. There is no poetry in today's romance and we're all the worse off because of it.
That said, don't even watch with this film if you disagree with above; but if you long for some semblance of romantic films like "Now Voyager" and "Dr. Zhivago" wrapped in the milieu of a world destroyed by big business then ... Read More

I kept hoping it would get to the point. any point.
waste of time. wasted evening. totally stupid movie.
I love Joaquin Phoenix, and Claire Danes, that's why I got this DVD. sad sad sad disappointment. even the sexy Sean Penn was stupid to sign up for this one.
watch something better - like the Fireplace Video.
