Информация о фильме

Filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos directs this incredible tale of the fantastical evolution of Bella Baxter (Emma Stone), a young woman brought back to life by the brilliant and unorthodox scientist Dr. Godwin Baxter (Willem Dafoe). Under Baxter's protection, Bella is eager to learn. Hungry for the worldliness she is lacking, Bella runs off with Duncan Wedderburn (Mark Ruffalo), a slick and debauched lawyer, on a whirlwind adventure across the continents. Free from the prejudices of her times, Bella grows steadfast in her purpose to stand for equality and liberation. Also starring Ramy Youssef, Christopher Abbott and Jerrod Carmichael, "Poor Things" was written by Tony McNamara, based on the book by Alasdair Gray, and produced by Ed Guiney, Andrew Lowe, Yorgos Lanthimos and Emma Stone.

Not good. I don't understand the love this film has gotten. I couldn't stop looking at the clock while watching. The first half at least had a good chunk of humor to keep you interested. After that, it just was a drawn out softcore porn film. If you really like seeing Emma Stone's nipples and seeing her have sex, this movie is your type of content. If you're looking for anything outside of that, this movie falls short most all-the-time. Don't waste your money cause you're not missing anything.

Shades of Frankenstein but really I think the underlying theme of the movie is the age long struggle between the sexes. A tongue and cheek snipe at men who for so long has had the pivotal role in Hollywood ever since the time when man first discovered the wheel or was it woman? Putting that aside and copious amount of nudity, it was delightful and entertaining throughout. It was different, it pulled you in and the squares don't fit in the round holes but who cares, I had fun watching.

the first bit was creepy and weird. once I got through that, I really enjoyed the emerging personality of the MC and the beauty of the way it was filmed. I can see how some people might get hung up about their concepts of sexual morals. That is the point ;)
