Do you think the footage will include anything like what we saw in the EW Magazine preview?

Cosmopolis Review

 

Potentially Spoilerish... be warned. 

When the news first broke around the interwebs that Robert Pattinson was going to do a movie called "Cosmopolis", which like many of his film choices is based on a book, droves of people were suddenly reading Don De Lillo's work. Consequently, droves of people were tweeting things like "I have no clue what this book is about" or "this book is so weird" or "how the hell are they going to get this on film?" - especially after it's popularity shot up after winning the MTV Brawl back in January!

HOW did he make this look sexy?! 

In the world of Robert Pattinson fans I have found very few people who actually loved the book. Personally, I LOVED the book. *waves hi to Rose*, my kindred book spirit. And when it was announced that THE David Cronenberg was going to be directing... well, be still my movie loving heart. So commenced a year of waiting, a year of seeing set pictures, seeing Rob with the dodgiest (yet, sexy) haircut known to mankind, a year of speculation...a year waiting for a movie set almost entirely in a limo!! 

Jess and I were lucky to get to see a press screening of Cosmopolis two weeks ago in Dublin. Turns out, given the films limited release in Ireland (only avail in Dublin) we were blessed. Boy, were we blessed. 

This film is nothing like anything Rob has ever done before. I'm almost sure it's nothing like anyone has done before. If I'd tried to write this review as soon as I left the theatre all it would say is .. "Wow, that was... wow." It left me speechless (in a good way.)

It's pure Cronenbergian greatness. Eric Packer is a multi-billionaire, wall street trader, who is so rich he has lost all sense of what money is, what it means, what it can give him any more. He is disconnected from the real world to such an extent that he is almost robotically ruled by the numbers flashing before his eyes as millions of dollars/world currencies are traded in front of his eyes in the most pimped out limo ever. 

He has one mission on this one day in New York and that is to get a haircut, across town, in his old neighbourhood barbers. Nowhere else will do. You get a sense from this theme that Eric has realised he needs to go back to his roots to sort out the current problem(s) he is having. To anyone else it would be an existential crisis but to Eric, it's a glitch in the market that is affecting his whole mindset.

He is joined by several people in the limo as it slowly makes it way through a presidential visit, a rappers funeral procession, and a protest rally. Each actor who joins the seemingly unshakable Packer in the limo proves why they were handpicked by Cronenberg for the parts. Everyone from Jay Baruchel (Shiner) to Juliette Binoche (Didi Fancher) to Samantha Morton (Vija Kinsky), shows true acting skill in such a confined set. 

Kevin Durand plays Torval- Packer's head of security, and plays it well. He seems quietly exasperated at his boss's seemingly suicidal mission to get across New York in such riotous circumstances. Trust me when I say you will remember the name "Nancy Babich" when this movie is over... 

"In the next block there are two haircutting salons. One, two. No need to go crosstown. The situation isn’t stable."

"You’re unsettled because you feel you have no role, you have no place. But you have to ask yourself whose fault this is..."

Paul Giamatti, briefly glimpsed earlier in the movie comes into full focus in the last scenes. He is an astounding actor and he brings the movie to a close with the effect of a whirlwind taking place inside a disturbed mind. 

And then there was Rob...! As a Robert Pattinson fan I am often subjected to trite media sarcasm, or considered a teenager with a crush (hey I'm 34!!) or worse, a Mom with a crush (I ain't one of them either), I am just a fan. And this is his best work to date! I can say that because I've seen everything he's done... My husband says a true fan knows when an actor's work is not up to standard - I reply with "well Little Ashes will be something I'll probably only ever watch once... and the Haunted Airman, maybe twice."  

Cosmopolis is a far cry from "Edward" in the Twilight Saga or "Diggory" in Harry Potter. This is a monologue driven, progressionist, sex fueled, current, masterpiece. Robert is in every scene and in every scene he nails it. He also nails a couple of women along the way which will leave you squirming in your seats (seriously - a room full of male journos, I was stifling myself and I saw one or two of them do the same). 

Everyone takes something different from this movie from what I've read of reviews so far - What I took from it? Robert plays a character who while seemingly, inhumanly disconnected to the point of robotic, systematically breaks down self made barriers to humanity and rediscovers he is actually human in the space of a day - the length of time it takes for him to get to his destination. 

Your destination ... Dublin. Get in the Limo, hold on for dear life, and make sure you see this movie!

RTÉ Reviews Cosmopolis! "Pattinson is entirely convincing as the doomed financier."

Paddy Kehoe from RTÉ reviewed Cosmopolis - which is out in Irish Cinemas tomorrow - and gave it 3/5 Stars;

Beware of novels set inside stretch limousines - things may get a little claustrophobic. Much of Saul Bellow's 1989 novella A Theft, for instance, was set inside a stretch limo, moving around the streets of New York. The work is one of the least memorable of Bellow's fictional creations. Certainly, if you were thinking box office, it would be unwise to make a movie based on it - if you were thinking about doing just that.

David Cronenberg set himself the challenge of adapting Don DeLillo's Cosmopolis, much of which is similarly set inside a stretch limo in New York. The 210-page novel was published to much acclaim in 2003 and DeLillo is a critics' favourite whose works are almost universally welcomed and revered.

But Cosmopolis didn't have much in the way of drama. An earlier DeLillo work, The Names, could, in the right hands, make a great film. Libra, his fictional recreation of the life of Lee Harvey Oswald, likewise. But Cosmopolis as a film? Hmm, a strange, perhaps venally indulgent choice by Cronenberg, who also wrote the screenplay.

Robert Pattinson plays Eric Packer, a 28-year-old asset manager billionaire whose limo is his office (or should that be the other way around?). For the purposes of the movie, anyway - given that we never see where he lives - the vehicle is also his swish mobile home. This sleek, intimate-yet-sterile conveyance has a drinks cabinet and all sorts of monitors that keep the financial whizz kid informed on how things are going in the business world. That is all that has mattered up until today, when the whole thing ends in tears.

Because today is the day Eric will hit career and personal meltdown, having bet his shirt on the Chinese yuan. As the day moves on from breakfast with his soon-to-be-estranged wife (played brilliantly by Sarah Gadon), he is waited on by cronies and assistants. These individuals hop on and off, as though the car were a tram in this city that is a stylised, only mildly recognisable version of New York.

Packer is a bit like a young Howard Hughes, and he has a doctor check him out thoroughly, every day. Then there's Packer's sexual need. We see a woman whose long black hair clings sweatily across her face in a particularly torrid encounter with the young man. Then the couple peel themselves apart and the woman's hair falls back to reveal a gorgeously carnal Juliette Binoche. I thought this scene was particularly arresting. The Guardian's critic took a different view, dismissing it as over-acting - "Juliette Binoche laying an egg", as he rather pithily expressed it. Ah now, a little unfair.

Then there's Eric's spooky bodyguard, relaying constant warnings about assassination attempts, although Packer is not particularly concerned. His life has turned so insipid that losing it is of little consequence.

At one point, the limo drives right into the middle of an anarchists' demonstration and the vehicle gets spray-painted and rocked from side to side. Packer continues to sit unconcerned as he awaits his fate, chatting to another hanger-on. The only moment of feeling seeps through in a visit to his old childhood barber to get the hair cut he has been talking about since early morning. Packer's desensitised, dead-eye stare lingers long after the end credits, and Pattinson is entirely convincing as the doomed financier.

The car, he tells one of his limo visitors, is cork-lined, but cannot shut out all the noise, which he aims to rectify. This must be a very rarefied noise, given that the limo's interior is impervious to all external sound, as it moves majestically in a deathly hush through the eerie city.

All the more silence then to hear the intimate dialogue and the characters' constant ticker-tape of ideas and wild fantasy - a feature that characterises much of DeLillo's fiction. Call Cosmopolis pretentious twaddle if you wish - and some indeed have - but, whatever else it is, the movie seems scrupulously faithful to the novel's aspirations. And if DeLillo is not mass-market with his fussy, hyper-intelligent, mildly nerdy novels, then you can hardly blame Cronenberg for that.
