1. • • Director Ari Folman's animated sequences are a beautiful trippy dream, ephemeral and potent at the same time, with mind-blowing ideas about individualism, commercialism, and capitalism. But it's also a bit of a jumble. While the images are bar-none beautiful, the script is preachy and heavy-handed.

   Is the Congress a relic of a post-revolutionary cinema of the mind?

   • For a film that looks at a believably nightmarish future, The Congress sits out of its time: a feverish relic of a post-revolutionary cinema of the mind. The film then becomes philosophical posturing with dialogue that is so abstruse it is impossible to tell if they are even trying to cobble together a story.

   Are the 'Congress' and'rebellion' really a'matrix'?

   • Some are saying the 'congress' and the 'rebellion' were like the Matrix or some alternate world. All of these individual descriptions of what is actually going on just re-enforce my point that if you don't at the very least define the parameters of your world there is really no point to telling the story... this is especially true in sci-fi.

   Do you think the first section of a movie looks good?

   • It does look good (especially if you like the drawing style presented), but there is nothing to add to the first section of the movie, only delving a bit deeper into the thought process. But not enough to make this really essential in my book. It might be either too weird or not complex enough for most of the viewers.

   Aug 29, 2014 · The congress of the title is a place of limitless possibility, palpable menace and almost unbearable melancholy. After all, who would need to escape to a world of elastic existences except those whose lives were already devoid of meaning? The film's central question is heartbreaking and clearly required a little soul searching from Folman.
