In many ways it's the best horror film I've ever seen. At the same time, it's hard to recommend; I believe I will be struggling to forget this film as long as I live. I doubt I'll succeed.
As remarkable as Haneke's films are, not a one has been as transcendently generous as Amour, which is nominated for five Academy Awards, including best picture, best director and best foreign-language film.
"Amour" isn't easy to watch, but its rewards are many.
"Amour" isn't just a great movie, it's a movie that may actually do you some good.
Shot in long, static takes, Amour stares directly into the indignities of old age and the curse of a slow death.
In many ways, it's a horror film, as the woman descends into helplessness, and - like the audience - the man can only watch. It's a potent piece of filmmaking.
The superb Trintignant and the Oscar-nominated Riva - who would win, in a just world - embody once-vigorous people in inevitable decline.
For Haneke, love is just another curious human trait to be dissected and used as a tool to disquiet his audience.
A poignant tale of undying love!
Beautifully acted and unflinching, Amour goes where few movies have the courage to
Riva's performance is undeniably magnificent, as she must chart every step of Anne's physical and mental deteriorating with exacting precision.
Sadly effective, with two standout performances.
Death, illness and tragedy transcend demographics, and the characters in "Amour" are all of us in the end.
Moving, touching and beautifully acted. The question: Do audiences want to spend two hours watching an old couple go from sad to sadder to saddest?
It is an inspirational film in the truest sense, and one to see with someone you love.
...this deceptively simple film makes clear that death, real death, the kind we all face and most art refuses to address honestly, is relentless and unsentimental.
This is beautiful film, and a terrible one: devastating to stick out, and yet one of the most remarkable romances ever made...
One of the ten best films of 2012.
Amour may not inspire the kind of emotional epiphany that similar illness-driven dramas tend to, the results are still riveting.
Death is part of love's bargain, and Haneke lays this fact bare.
It is hard to recommend Amour. Austrian director Michael Haneke's film cannot justly be described as entertaining, and it will likely leave you sad and weary. But it is a film you must see.
