Computer Chess (2013) Review by petar-mitric
This is a masterpiece of simplicity and intelligence. Beautifully shotwith a PortaPak camera in early 80's style, or at least it looks likeone. Story of passionate people in search for love. Computer Chess!What a wonderful idea to gather a plot. Specially when you have a dropof new age religion involved and strong sexual energy restrained.Sincerely humorous, this film hits the point. Specially in today'stechnology-obsessed universe. Acting is so convincing and natural thatone can easily think of it as a documentary, but its not - its art.Reminds on early Cassavetes. I will definitely wait for Bujalski's nextfilm. Personally, best at Berlinale 2013. Love this film.

Computer Chess (2013) Review by bob-2325 from United States
The Computer Chess subculture, how it looked, and how it related to therest of early 80s U.S. culture, is central in this pitch-perfect film,which captures the loss of a particular variety of innocence. ThePortaPak video may be blurry by today's standards, but the charactersand dialog are sharp with a cutting, mockumentary wit.

The plot mainly follows the members of the competing chess programteams (and some odd hangers-on) through the weekend tournament, but theinteractions with a New Age encounter group sharing the motel addanother dimension to the story and remind us of some of the otherexplorations going on in those times.

Computer Chess (2013) Review by sfgeoff-913-424177 from United States

Oh, this film was painful to watch. Much more like the term project ofa stoned student at a cut-rate film school than a Sundance quality film(Why of earth was this film accepted into Sundance is beyond me. Easilythe worst film of the festival.). Filmed for some unknown reason inpoor-quality black & white, with the exception of about four seconds ofcolour part way through. This film contains just about every cinematiccliché popular from the 1970's. Dialog is laborious, tedious, and justabout any other '-ious' that comes to mind. And none of the charactersare likable, some, however, are tolerated better than others.

The plot is centered around a group of chess-obsessed computerprogrammers who come together at a cheap hotel, which is inexplicablyinfested with cats, to compete against each others chess programs. Alsomeeting at the same hotel is a 70's style 'encounter' group. The storyis presumably based on the actual chess program competition series, butif the real thing was anything like this movie I can't imagine how weever evolved to Deep Blue.

This film fails as a comedy, a drama, a docudrama, or any other genreit's be categorized as. I found myself envying those viewers sittingnear the aisles who were able to easily get up and walk out during thescreening I saw.

I don't know how long this film was but it seemed interminable. Don'twaste your time watching this movie, it'll seem like several hoursyou'll never get back. God, I hated this movie.
