Critique of"At Eternity's Gate" Another take on Vincent van Gogh

   I have just experienced something that is totally foreign to me! That being motion sickness due to the directorial decision to equivocate Vincent's van Gogh's unstable and chaotic actions by insisting on rapid camera movements and obsessive zooming.
   What have one learns from this movie,I can answer this easily as all movies and books on Vincent see to open another window and by doing this we get another view or interpretation of a life that has been purposely withheld from most and ignored by the fervent masses of the closed mind.
   The ending of the life of Vincent, I do believe to be spot on but the rest of the story is as an incredulous take on his life.
  There is much more to Vincent van Gogh that can be imagined and the answer to his so called madness is simple "Accelerated Creativity that is followed by Accelerated Intuition. The "voice"told him to cut back on the painting he ignored the advise
   His childhood epilepsy determined his existence to extents not understood. His emotions and family genetics also had a role. Vincent had super human abilities that are acknowledged in the Netherlands but scorned by most. His existence answers questions but poses many more.
   If you wish to see this movie,bring Dramamine!
