Plot: Monte (Robert Pattinson) and his baby daughter are the last survivors of a damned and dangerous mission to the outer reaches of the solar system. The crew death-row inmates led by a doctor (Juliette Binoche) with sinister motives has vanished. As the mystery of what happened onboard the ship is unraveled, father and daughter must rely on each other to survive as they hurtle toward the oblivion of a black hole. A staggering and primal film about love and intimacy, suffused with anguished memories of a lost Earth, High Life is a haunting, thrilling achievement from visionary director Claire Denis!
My Movie Review: The movie is risky never expect to shut my eyes in a hollow uncertain part! High Life is a visual stunner from the start set the bar high when throw his dead crew out in the space what a sight' and cuteness overload when it focus on the baby in unusual surroundings:) Robert Pattinson is very captivating perfect for the role he has the awkward stiffness that fits in the mood of the film no wonder his getting recognition for his indie films' his shining in this light! Juliette Binoche is the ultimate shocker plays a doctor with semen experiment to create the perfect child and will do everything to make it happen but that's not all exposed and shameless she went to a pleasure room and do things to her body some viewers can't take its so extreme! The child grow up as a beautiful teen who helps to navigate things in the spacecraft but its a little to late for bit hope they found since most of us' viewers are still in shock on what occurred! The thing that's terrifying about this space odyssey gone mad are the images that will haunt you and goes the saying once you see it you can't unseen it yet over a fantasy worth savoring:)
Critics Consensus: High Life is as visually arresting as it is challenging, confounding and ultimately rewarding which is to say its everything film fans expect from director Claire Denis! High Life will send you back out into the world with a totally new idea of what black holes symbolize. It is an elliptical film, yes, because it will answer only the questions that you did not think to ask. It's heavy, angry stuff. A film that lashes out at humankind as a species of grunting thugs entirely at the mercy of the procreative impulse. It ends with an uncharacteristic touch of optimism, but it's little and late. You'll need a stiff drink. As with so many of her films, the point is to contrive an overwhelmingly powerful mood and moment, almost physiological sensation, this one incubated in the vast, cold reaches of space. The production design, the shimmering, evocative Stuart Staples music. everything blends together. The vastness of space is such a natural fit for the free-floating narratives of Claire Denis its wonder she hasn't embraced sci-fi before now. High Life is willing to stare in the hopeless void and discern a particle of optimism:)
