Take Shelter Movie Review

Take Shelter is definitely an brilliant, considered provoking, perfectly shot movie offering an outstanding performance by Michael Shannon (an Oscar nomination, definitely?), who had been too excellent for director Nichols’ previous/first movie, Shotgun Stories. The movie explores the line among fear and paranoia, or objectivity and subjectivity, because it is protagonist – the blue-collar family man of few of words – wrestles along with apocalyptic dreams as well as visions of the unusual, perhaps supernatural storm, answering them the best he can as each literal warnings And possible indications of psychological sickness. The movie features a brooding, sometimes Hitchcockian environment and a incredibly well-timed feel to it (think financial and environmental disasters). Placed in a rural group, we now have plenty of beautiful wide shots from the land- and sky-scape (also a solid element of Shotgun Stories) by incorporating added Cgi on the latter for that dream/visions. Shannon’s performance comprises a minimum of 50% of the movies really worth however the remaining portion of the throw are great too. It’s a slow mover and, at around two hours and fifteen minutes, perhaps a bit too long. My wife and I did have a few criticisms after watching it (at the Sydney Film Festival), but I wouldn’t want to discourage anyone from seeing this film, which will no doubt be a hot topic and bring Nichols deserved recognition when it goes on general release.
