Ellipsis joins the list of movies where boy meets girl and they spend the next 24 hours exploring the metropolitan city around them and discovering each others inner core.
With 'Before Sunrise', 'Before Sunset', 'Before We Go', 'Already Tomorrow in Hong Kong' preceding this movie "Ellipsis" joins a family of movies with similar plot lines. But what makes Ellipsis memorable is the script and the charm of the two main characters.
Well worth watching - give it a look!

I started watching this film knowing that it was set in Sydney, I always like to watch Australian films. I had no idea what to expect however I can 10/10 say I loved this film. It was so beautiful, random and brilliant and I haven't watched a film I enjoyed this much in ages. It reminded me that to have an adventure you need to take a risk. I loved the realness of the film and the connection/friendship shared amongst the two lead characters. It reminded me of the chance encounter I had with one of my now long term friends. I don't usually write reviews but something about this film moved me and so I decided to write this review. If you have not watched this I think it is worth watching.
Based on the existing reviews, I thought this would be a movie I'd enjoy. Unfortunately, I felt like it was a wasted couple of hours.
The acting by the lead male was great, he was a likable and believable character, well executed. The style of filming was good.
However, the plot left me wonder - what was the point? It essentially is a stream of pointless events, two people wandering around the city for a whole movie. Like the lengthy scene where multiple types of vibrators are discussed while the lead female character goggles awkwardly. Why? So much of this movie adds nothing, and it lacked any kind of depth. Way too much of the dialogue was pointless interactions with others. The end resolution was not so much of a resolution.
It's more of a documentary of two people and their random occurrences on a night out on the town.
I wish more time was spent on the secondary plot, as this felt underdeveloped, but added a lot to the depth of the movie.
Would not watch again.

I really had no idea what to expect when I started watching this movie. But I must say, I enjoyed it very much.
The 2 main people seemed perfect for each other and I am sure each had the most memorable night for a long time if not their life.
Neither would have thought bumping into each other in the street would have led to such an eventful day/night.
The phone repairer, short glimpse of his life, also food for thought...
I am a Melburnian and remember the few ventures into Sydney, brought back some memories.
The writer, director has done an excellent job of this movie. To keep and hold my attention without the usual action as in most movies...
It reminded me of movies like "Before Sunrise", "Before Sunset" with Ethan Hawke...
I think most people who will watch this will like it. I could have probably given it a ten, but as a teacher once told me, when I was used to score perfect 100s in most subjects, he only gave me 99 for Arabic calligraphy, with the explanation of "Who is to say that your handwriting is so perfect that it can't be surpassed?"
