RE: Poor Things spoiler-free review / Poor Things bezspoilerowa recenzja

in CineTV4 months ago

I recently watched this movie expecting something different than what I found in its first few minutes. Many compared it to "Alice in Wonderland" while others criticized it for its explicit scenes. When I watched it to review it, I was met with an absurd mix of dark humor, endless nude scenes, and awkward, even strange moments.

However, the way it is produced with a photography style and a way of directing the characters with a more or less agreed-upon story (removing all the above) impressed me, at least a little. I consider it a somewhat risky work due to the different themes it mentions and the references it makes to today's society, but it's not bad. Sure, I won't see her again, but oh well.

Good review.

Thank you for your kind words :).

It was similar for me. I also got something different from most of the reviews I heard (in my case there were 2 reviewers who more or less reflected my impressions after the screening, at least in the most important aspects).

I agree that the artistic style makes this commentary on modern society easier to swallow. As for me, I'll probably watch this movie a second time in a few years.
