Lack of focus causes director to lose 'Control'
The Limits of Control, reveals the limits of director Jim Jarmusch, whose movies tend to be hip meditations on male soloism. He has explored this territory for years, from the wandering loneliness of a Manhattan hipster in 1984's Stranger Than Paradise to the wandering loneliness of a past-his-prime Don Juan in 2005's Broken Flowers. Those movies are quiet and contemplative and a bit remote, but they at least have characters who begin to feel and change and wrangle with their self-imposed [Read more]

Unlimited control
Much like the soundtrack’s slowly shifting doom-and-gloom guitar textures, director Jim Jarmusch has used the typical tools of the trade to flip a genre on its head, crafting an action film largely devoid of action. Following a hired gun only referred to as “the lone man” (Isaach De Bankolé) through several weeks of his mysterious mission, viewers are treated to meditative moments in glacially paced real time, such as travelling on trains, lying in bed and practising what appea [Read more]

Jim Jarmusch's latest The Limits of Control is a slow, meandering
A slow-as-molasses crime thriller with a protagonist who makes flatline tough guy Lee Marvin in Point Blank look manic, The Limits of Control is quintessential indie Jim Jarmusch's 11th feature. The man who, along with Spike Lee and John Sayles, helped define American independent cinema for their generation, Jarmusch has turned out a consistently quirky oeuvre of films centered on hipsters traveling through a landscape littered with other nattily-dressed iconoclasts.

The Limits of Control
Jim Jarmusch's anonymous antihero hit man (Isaach De Bankolé), identified in the credits as the Lone Man, exists only in terms of his unspecified mission. He's introduced in an overhead shot doing tai chi in an airport toilet stall, then taking a meeting in the first-class lounge. A few inexplicable aphorisms later, he's traveling through Spain by train, grooving on a landscape shot by Christopher Doyle and soundwashed in hyperdrone acid jazz. Like everything Jarmusch, The Limits of Control is c [Read more]

 Denis, an assistant to directors Jim Jarmusch and Wim Wenders at the beginning of her cinematic career, became recognized and celebrated as a director with her 1988 film Chocolat (not to be confused with Lasse Hallstrom's 2000 film).  Chocolat is a semi-autobiographical meditation on African colonialism.  35 Shots of Rum has been shown at the San Francisco International Film Festival and is a jury-selected film for this year's Los Angeles Film Festival (June 18-28, 2009). 35 Shots of Rum [Read more]

Movie Review: 'Limits of Control' is image and sound, not much more
The walking man in The Limits of Control, a minimalist exercise in the key of cool from Jim Jarmusch, wears through a lot of shoe leather during his feature-length tramp. One of cinema's men with no names, credited only as the Lone Man, this peripatetic figure is played (and walked and walked) by Isaach De Bankole with a determined gait and inscrutable gaze that initially reveal almost as little as the elliptical storytelling. Like Jarmusch, the Lone Man doesn't share his intentions until he rea [Read more]

The Limits of Control
Leave it to semi-visionary American auteur Jim Jarmusch to create an assassin movie as imagined by Michelangelo Antonioni. The Limits of Control, a highly controlled but poetic and slowly evolving tale of a hitman's gig, will strike some viewers as possibly pretentious and frustrating in its refusal to play by the rules of engagement for a thriller. Here, the meditative, hypnotically repetitious, and ravishingly visualized film mostly is about release and rumination, with tensions saved up and d [Read more]

REVIEW: Jim Jarmusch returns with enigmatic tale of the Lone Man
Jarmusch has said he was inspired by a trifecta of a William Burroughs essay, from which the film’s title and its theme of words as the ultimate source of control and power are drawn; French crime dramas of the ’70s and ’80s; and John Boorman’s thriller “Point Blank.” All that would put you in mind of a noir experience, where the action is tense and philosophy is left for another day. That is not what Jarmusch has given us. Instead, the film is like a series o [Read more]
