Una película hermosa e intrínsecamente complicada sobre dos personas cuyas vidas emocionales se cruzan de la forma más curiosa posible. El director Jonathan Glazer vuelve a sobresalir psicológicamente y, una vez más, se ayuda mucho de los efectos visuales y la música. Esta vez, sin embargo, el resultado es totalmente opuesto al de su enérgico y furioso debut Sexy Beast - es lento, largo, hipnótico y frágil. Interpretaciones magistrales de Nicole Kidman y Cameron Bright, una música mágica e inaudita de Alexandre Desplat, un tema digno del Premio Pulitzer. El desencadenamiento del remate es un poco caótico y quizá un poco decepcionante en el contexto de la trama anterior, pero en los reverberantes minutos, florece en una HERMOSA colisión de ideas. Pero para sentirlo plenamente, a uno le tiene que gustar la particular forma de expresarse de Glazer.

I waited a very long time for a screening of Birth and it was worth it. Some topics really require you to be more mature. The inner world of a woman who was widowed in an instant was another strong challenge for Nicole Kidman's acting. Some emotions and feelings cannot be suppressed, love cannot be made to disappear, and sometimes even a lifetime is not enough for the soul to recover... The fragile condition that needs to be cared for is thus a daily reality and day by day it becomes more and more difficult to cope with the reality. A strong theme.

A slow and hypnotic film whose fragile emotional plane is the most interestingly story in a long time. Too bad about the uneven second half, which falls short to the slow-moving first half, though it doesn't change the overall quality and the feeling that after a long time you are watching something completely new and original, even though there have been countless personal stories about fateful love and omens with more or less mysterious touch or interesting twist. Jonathan Glazer surprises in the uniqueness of some scenes (a 2-minute shot on Nicole Kidman's face, for example), where you can feel the inner turmoil and dispair of the main characters even without words. The final shot gives the feeling that you missed something and can be interpreted in multiple ways. One of the few films where the closing credits come at a moment when you absolutely don't count on them.
