NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Salubfoto It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

mherrin-43253 Infinity Baby: Directed by Bob Byington and written by Onur TukelWhat did I just watch? I was caught by the idea that lies in the fabric of this film. A company that sells babies that never age. But that's not what this movie is actually about. It's an allegory about a man child who refuses to grow up and why that is a bad thing. It takes what feels like a long time to get to this point. This movie was shot in crisp black and white. I'm not entirely sure why. I think it might have to do with the cold nature and the awkward absurdity of the premise at large. It has to have this to hook people in because the story is so simplisitic and other than the extra giggly girlfriend, everyone is unlikable. But then again that might be the point. It has some moments that you have to laugh at because of the ridiculous nature of the story but it still makes you roll your eyes. It will also make you scratch your chin and rub your temples. It is just such an odd movie. Things happen in this movie that will make you say huh assuming of course that you get that far. I honestly don't know what to make of it. I got the themes it was trying to convey. I got some chuckles out of the ordeal but I can not recommend this one to anyone. I give this movie a D.

zefrey Infinity Baby was delicious! I saw it at Traverse City Film Festival and a wave of hilarious nausea filled me as I watched Kieran make many of the hellaciously fallacious choices I have made.... sigh, to be a footloose roustabout again...OH! The cinematography had that magical feel of Antonioni, with the clean black and white lines and emotional turmoil underneath. It lent a bedrock to the madness that I found unsettling as well as comforting. And I want to spray bleach in my lover's eyes now.

isabellawaltz This movie does a great job at balancing absurdist comedy with thought-provoking social commentary. The subject matter explores a near-future society that parodies many highly criticized aspects of our modern world: laziness, mindless subscription, shallowness, etc. However, you won't get bogged down in pressing social messages, it's just really funny. The world is heightened by intriguing cinematography taken from locations in Austin, TX. Great performances from everyone on board, especially Megan Mullally who really shines here. Nick Offerman is hilarious as well, as always.

soncoman Recently screened at the 60th Annual San Francisco International Film Festival, Bob Byington's "Infinity Baby" has all the hallmarks of modern independent film – a quirky concept masking a comment on the modern human condition, crisp (black and white) cinematography, a soundtrack by some hip musician and a cast of indie stalwarts. Combined they make for a film that, at 71 minutes, actually makes you wish it had fleshed out its ideas a bit more.Set in the not-so-distant future, screenwriter Onur Tukel's quirky concept at play is that through a stem-cell research project gone bad, there are now about a thousand babies running around being "marketed" by a company (Infinity Baby) that never age and can be fed and be expected to poop just once a week. They never grow up. A ha! The same can be said for the film's protagonist Ben, an employee of the company and commitment-phobic guy who dates women just long enough to have his mother disapprove of them and then move on. A side plot involves two other employees of the company looking to make a quick buck by keeping one of the babies for a while, but things fall apart pretty quickly.The film is on "hold review" so a full critique will have to wait, but there's much to like about this film, beginning with the cast – Kieran Culkin as the man-child, Megan Mullally as his mother, Nick Offerman as the company boss (they're both Executive Producers on the film,) as well as Martin Starr, Kevin Corrigan and Stephen Root.The film looks good with cinematography by Matthias Grunsky and some retro-editing by Kris Boustedt. The film sounds good with a soundtrack by Aesop Rock. Director Bob Byington has indicated in some interviews that it might be re-edited, so perhaps its interesting premise will be expanded on in future screenings and before its eventual release.www.worstshowontheweb.com
