2018 - ENGLISH - MOVIE

Comedy

In 1977, two respected scientists, Ben Morin and his wife Catherine quit their jobs at the university to conduct an experiment they think will revolutionize our understanding of human identity. The project aims to raise three children contrarily to their genetic predispositions to prove the ultimate power of nurture over nature. They want to prove that everyone has the same potential to become anything. Maya, a newborn girl adopted from two feebleminded parents, is raised to be smart, while Maurice, a newborn boy adopted from two anger-prone parents, is raised to be a pacifist. Finally, their own biological son Luke, who comes from a long lineage of scientific brains, is raised to become a revered artist. The experiment will reveal little scientific truth, but rather lead Ben and Catherine to discover the true value of family.

      But it never quite swells your heart like a film on familial love and bonding should. ( Read More )
    • Michael Ordoña

      Just like the kids at the center of its story, this film feels shoehorned into being something it really isnt; its like a philosophical drama about traumatized children crammed into a clown car.The goofy music, slapsticky moments, and certain situations and performances have the trappings of broad comedy.

      Though benefiting from Josee Deshaies warm cinematography and a score peppered with 70s songs, Hoss Desmarais direction is uneven, opting to avoid ludicrousness in favor of a mounting sentimentality thats a bad fit for a story this silly.By its perfunctory where are they now coda, Birthmarked makes plain that, in terms of tone and one liners, it could have used more assured nurturing itself.

      For once, the children are ahead of the curve and if Birthmarked cant send us home satisfied, it at least leaves us with good vibes. ( Read More )
    • Michael Rechtshaffen

      Although theres some amusing stuff at the core of Marc Tulins screenplay, which has comedic traces of Wes Anderson and Noah Baumbach in its DNA, this Canadian Irish co production, directed by Emanuel Hoss Desmarais, loses its way and, in the process, all three kids and both parents end up sharing the same undesirable trait: The filmmakers neglected to make them likable.
