Review

 

Jeliza-Rose is a young child in a very unusual situation - both parents are junkies. When her mother dies, she embarks on a strange journey with her father, Noah, a rock 'n' roll musician well past his time.

The film drifts between reality and fantasy as Jeliza-Rose escapes the vast lonliness of her new home into the fantasy world that exists in her imagination. In this world fireflies have names, bog-men awaken at dusk, and since separated from their bodies, keep her company: Mystique, Baby Blonde, Glitter Dickens, a mentally damaged young man with the mind of a ten year old.

As optimistic as it is surreal, as humourous as it is suspenseful - Tideland is a celebration of the power of a child's imagination...

I was really looking forward to seeing this film, being a fan of Terry Gillingham's work. But after a promising start, it just got progressively more weird (and not in a good way) until I was literally being begged to turn it off.

Customer rating: 3 out of 5 stars freaky Stylee!

Visualy this is a fantastic movie,but I cannot pretend to be intelligent enough to know what the hell was going on.The director explains this film should be viewed through the eyes of a child,which makes some sense,however as an adult with limited imagination and zero innocence,rekindeling that childlike state of mind was difficult for me.If you are a child at heart,broadminded,(and I must add not easily offended),you may enjoy this movie.Had Louis Carrol been a writter in todays generation his efforts would have been similar to this(there are many references to Alice in wonderland).If you want a film that dosnt require any depth probing(Im talking to the Steven Siegal fans)you wont enjoy this film on any level.
