Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Steineded How sad is this?

Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

salmanalfarisi-81574 The Tribe is one of the films with an odd way of speaking. The film is entirely from the beginning to the end using sign language which also became one of the breakthroughs because films like this seemed rare or unacceptable to some people. Maybe, I don't know if out there other than this movie the rest using sign language without any conversation that using word-per-word though. But, imagine watching in the cinema could leave a dark impression but full of doubt when you see this movie. The premise was simple, an innocent young man who's trying to stay in his school where the school was full of robbery, prostitution, and other criminal things.The first opening scene has clearly stated that this movie doesn't use subtitle, dialog, and voice-over. I've guessed that this is not a happy type of movie in it. It feeling of concern when enjoying this movie is whether to understand the story or dialogue which it uses a sign language that almost some people don't understand sign language. I think is not. Without further ado, Myroslav Slaboshpytskyi uses all the actor and actress whose deaf so as not to show too much gimmick or acting. It's a pure gesture and facial expressions from the actors who understand the role of each their characters. So, don't worry if you can't comprehend the plot in such a way because this also teaches how to interpret the story without any help of a word. Unless you don't understand sign language, you can easily understand the story and the message the director wants to bear.The Tribe has an interesting element regardless of using sign language without any subtitle. One of them is the cinematography which is almost as a whole taken in one shot in a very long moment. The pictures through the camera always seem steady and always intercept or highlight the characters without any constraints frames or jump cut that seem questionable. The neatly visible movements make The Tribe seem more unique when talking about this aspect. Not too much to hear from the actors who use the sign language so it's not like I really care to them because it was notified early from the first though it also adds an important point because it doesn't use a fake gimmick.The director always shows a cinematography which is so smooth as for the most part and also my favorite when the two main characters are discussing in a two different room. One supporting character is entering one room with another room but the camera never separated from the view of the two characters are in the two room. When the two characters finished consulting, the other two characters coming from the right direction in the outdoor made the camera focus on the two new characters into the on-screen wherein this point they are, again, would describing the plot. Some other examples like the use of the environment are also unique as Akira Kurosawa does, using lots of weather, the direction of the wind, and the environment to further establish the character.The Tribe isn't a happy story. This is about one person who's in the wrong way makes him unable to fight in the place and must take all the situations which reside in his school. He surrendered himself to be able to adapt but that's what makes him a different person, especially on the ending that feels like a well-execution in a dark manner and creates a trace pattern. I think some flaws that make the cinematography so uncomfortable for some people are also a matter of getting viewers to leave a depressed impression such as one shot that's taking too long to cut, a silent scene with almost no sound at all like watching Martin Scorsese's Silence, and uncomfortable feelings about things like those. The Tribe also have many memorable scenes such as, of course, the dark ending scene, the abortion scene which also makes me the most creepy and cringe scene I've ever seen in this movie or any other movie, and the climax.The Tribe must be one of those movies with a strange and different experience than watching any mainstream movies. The use of sign language is difficult to understand but shows a work of art not only through words but through with feelings and thoughts as well. The Tribe is not a film which is too heavy to understand the way it is delivered but it also introduces you to the culture and the foundations of the deaf people so there is no mutual distinction.

SnoopyStyle Sergei arrives at an Ukrainian boarding school for the deaf. He's a shy new kid who gets picked on. He is recruited into the ruling gang. They pimp out two of the older girls. Sergei is tasked with being the suitcase pimp and falls for Anya. King rules the organization and decides to sell the girls. Sergei revolts causing chaos and bloodshed.There is sound but rarely any dialog. The sign language does not get translated into subtitles. One must guess at the plot but it's not impossible. The challenge of interpreting the story has some appeal. The question becomes what this is trying to achieve and what it actually achieves. It doesn't really put the audience into the shoes of the deaf. They actually know what's being said in the movie although it could give a sense of the deaf trying to understand the hearing world. There are some brutal graphic scenes. This is a shocking movie but I must admit that I fastforwarded some of the movie. It's too hard to watch such a quiet movie. One can't compare this to silent movies since those always have music. This is an interesting original experimental movie but I'm not sure what it achieves.

jerkassstore Despite what other flaws this movie might have - one obvious one is that deaf people make noise, probably more than people who can hear - it could've at least been watchable. In it's current state it's unwatchable. One very simple reason.No subtitles.Without subtitles this movie is worthless. You can argue about it all day and give some b.s. reason like, for the sake of art, it's not about what they say, etc, etc. But how is this different than watching a foreign language film? So I supposed to guess what's happening? How is that more enjoyable then, say, watching kids play or something through your window from inside your home? So it's OK if deaf people understand it but not people who can hear? What is this movie supposed to achieve? I don't get it. I couldn't finish it.

Jake Thompson "The Tribe" is a huge step backwards in the history of film: a silent movie without subtitles or music. Somehow or other this film has been hailed as some sort of masterpiece. It isn't. More like the Emperor's New Clothes.Here are my top ten reasons for avoiding it at all costs:1. Pointless 2. Depressing 3. Overlong 4. Confusing 5. Slow 6. Badly acted 7. Full of unlikable characters 8. Insulting to deaf people 9. Insulting to non-deaf people 10. Ridiculously violent.There is absolutely reason I can think of to see this film. You will not gain anything. You will not learn anything. You will only be depressed, and like seeing a car accident, you will wish you hadn't looked in the first place. "The Tribe" or "Plemya" is simply more evidence that Cannes juries go for anything that seems documentary-like and seems to capture some sort of reality -- despite a lack of sympathetic characters or a compelling story. And if there are no actual actors involved, no dialogue and no soundtrack, all the better. Congratulations, here's your prize.
