Masterpiece of crap

Rating: 2/10 (16 December 2015)

Youth is 'an artsy movie'. This means that it has all artsy movie clichés, as follows: no structure (just a bunch of random scenes glued together with a duct tape), no characters (talking mannequins put in random places), no plot, no joy, no substance. It's just sad and insanely boring set of shots that vary from mildly annoying to flat out disgusting.
Apparently it was supposed to be a study of aging. The movie presents a bunch of 'secondary characters' (young aspiring filmmakers, conductor's daughter, miss universe with disgusting silicon tits, queen's emissary, some young actor, a freaking buddhist monk) and it throws this interesting pack into beautiful hotel located in Alps to sit and talk about life and death. The main characters are 2 old farts. One grumpy ex - orchestra conductor and second retiring filmmaker. One is old and bitter and he doesn't want to perform anymore, because of some personal tragedy, the second is still kicking, but he eventually gives up too after one of his muses resigns from being in his last movie and the guy jumps off the balcony and I was supposed to care, but I didn't, because this movie was so disgusting and boring that I almost fell asleep halfway through it...
I wouldn't be so negative if there was some artism included in this piece. But no, all we see are metaphores served with the subtlety of Mike Tyson knocking down his opponent, 80 years old penises, silicon breasts, old people in the pool, Hitler and jokes about urinating repeated 10 times throuought the movie.
Boring, low impact piece of crap.
