-
Confirms -- through its narrow portrait of life as unrelentingly bleak -- its own gloomy cynicism.

Michael Haneke could be cinema's Debbie Downer, if only he had any sense of humor.
May 3, 2006 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review… -
Intelligent, hard-hitting, nightmarish family drama that's based on a true story and told in a repetitive clinical style that reflects the subjects' anomie.

Haneke's impressive feature theatrical debut offers a chillingly bleak look at a family and its descent into barbarism as a result of alientaion and disengagement from life.

Audience Reviews for The Seventh Continent (Der Siebente Kontinent)

Nov 05, 2018Haneke basically tortures the viewer to the point of almost unbearable, first focusing his film (based on real life events) on the dull, bureaucratic and apathetic routine of a modern family and then moving to the excruciatingly detailed, step-by-step preparation of a horrific incident.Carlos M Super Reviewer

Nov 18, 2011The influence of violent media in the mass behavior of society is a passionate topic for Haneke since his debut. This time, he is dealing with his very first depiction of the destruction of the modernized urban family. Also, this spectacular achievement of a slowly-developing and blunt atmosphere depicts death in its most existentialist manner, while simultaneously tearing down the walls of the present microeconomic law worldwide. Terrifying truths that few auteurs dared to speak out loud. Bravo! 97/100Edgar C Super Reviewer

Feb 14, 2009Bruising and depressing, the Seventh Continent builds and builds to a shattering climax with a sense of monotony that few have ever achieved. Its power lies in its ambitious decision to show us what has happend and let us draw our own conclusions, or make up our own reasons for why it went the way it did.Stephen M Super Reviewer

Oct 06, 2008a really powerful debut and in a way haneke has been making the same point ever since (by the looks of his current film as well: will soon see!)Stella D Super Reviewer
