Reviews:

The most impressive surrealist satire about Canadian politics I’ve ever seen
This is one of the most strikingly original cinematic visions I have seen in quite some time. The movie is worth watching for the unique visual aesthetics and effects alone, but everything else about it surpassed my expectations and impressed me as well. With a title as broad as The Twentieth Century, this one felt like a real shot in the dark, but it paid off immensely. I mean, I had no idea it was going to be a dark surrealist comedy about Canada, for one…

The entire cast went above and beyond bringing their absurdist characters within this fantasy interpretation of Canada to life, all managing to be on the same wavelength, riding the line between comically animated and viscerally intense. On that note, the bizarre tone of the entire film was also one of it’s strongest suits – the fact that it can balance satirical comedy, arthouse absurdism, and traditional storytelling so well is really something to wonder over. No matter what type of person you are, there’s no way you could predict what you’re going to see next while viewing this rollercoaster of imagery and idea.

This is a truly locked-in vision that is incredibly singular. I’ve never seen anything quite like it. It was written, shot, directed, and edited very succinctly. I can’t recommend it to everyone, because, honestly it will be TOO original for the average viewer – they won’t know what to take of it. They won’t know how to feel. But, this is really a bit of a masterwork and deserves accolades. If you value originality, or the art and craft of filmmaking itself, do yourself a favor and check this out. Curious to see where this takes Matthew Rankin in the future.

Distracting
More of a production from Adult Swim cartoons than an historic reenactment although I’m sure there are truths hidden in this surreal bizarre graphic based production. Not a clear cohesive direct & simple conveyance of this period; the first half of the 20th century in Canada. Anyway it’s (sorta) a life history of Mackenzie King a long termed Prime Minister. Side notes: If I see another triangle (explanation -inserted triangle picture graphics were used a lot). And, I learned more from Wiki.
