Kyle M @RT77296778 Mar 18, 2026 A documentarian’s retained integrity presents one of the most unpleasant "slice-of-life" narratives to endure in tolerating with thin, unappealing characters solely written as depressive vases through uninteresting stories that questions the rooted truth in discomfort while sunbathing with Wes Anderson. (C) See more Aug 27, 2021 Weird shit. Very austrian. See more dave s @RT68722908 Feb 2, 2021 Ulrich Seidl's Dog Days feels like something Michael Haneke might have come up with early in his career…on a bad day…with no budget. The film focuses on the residents of a housing development outside Vienna during an oppressive heatwave and that's about all that can really be said about the plot. Despite the fact that most of the characters appear to be quite loathsome, a couple of the scenes are intriguing. Unfortunately, the remainder of the scenes are baffling and are more likely to induce wincing rather than advancing a storyline or developing a character. While there may be a message buried somewhere in this thing (other than the fact that Austrians apparently don't react well to heat), the message is difficult to find and most audiences will be left asking themselves the following questions: What am I watching? Why am I watching? See more Jul 23, 2018 Some bad movies are kinda good. Especially when there are dogs involved. See more Apr 28, 2016 The interweaving stories of low lives in Austria in uncomfortable situtions. The naturalistic depression goes on for 2 whole hours, definitely not worth watching even though John Waters recommended it.

I wanted to like it, but this is nothing more than an interesting and depressing misfire to me. See more Read all reviews
