Poor Things

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://fandomwire.com/poor-things-venice-film-festival-review-emma-stone-shines-in-the-best-film-of-the-year-so-far/

"Not only is Poor Things the best movie of the festival, but it's also the best of the year so far, as well as a new personal favorite of Yorgos Lanthimos' career.

A brilliantly thought-provoking, insanely hilarious story packed with substance, focused on a fascinating self-discovery journey filled with thematically rich layers. Astonishing performances from the entire cast, but Emma Stone is truly impressive as an exceptionally expressive force who should win many awards.

A technical masterclass across all filmmaking areas simply puts the icing on top of a near-perfect cake."

Rating: A

When the circumstances of our lives dont suit us, its time to reinvent ourselves something that happens both literally and metaphorically in this latest offering from director Yorgos Lanthimos. But the way that result comes about here represents a truly inspired fusion of genres, including comedy, romance, social commentary and sci-fi, making for one of the most inventive, unusual and hilarious releases of recent years. This offbeat feminist fable tells the story of how a pregnant, young, anonymous suicide victim (Emma Stone) is reanimated with the aid of a brain transplant from her unborn fetus, an achievement accomplished by a colorful, controversial but well-meaning surgeon/scientist a la Dr. Frankenstein (Willem Dafoe). He nurtures his...

It's almost as if Yorgos Lanthimos had sat down for a transcendental conversation with James Whale! Student "Max" (Ramy Youssef) is a student recruited by his professor "Godwin" (Willem Dafoe - aka "God") to come and help him work on his latest project. She's called "Bella" (Emma Stone) and it soon transpires that she is the product of some very creative surgery on the part of "God" - a man who has, himself, had one or two experiences under the knife at the hands of his scientist father! You see, a pregnant woman took her own life by jumping from a bridge, but was luckily fished out of the water before her baby died. The surgeon managed to deliver the baby then replace the dead brain of the adult with the one from the nascent infant! Needle...

Superb! It's quite the ride!

I don't have the film school-esque analysis to adequately describe all this, so I'll very much leave that to others. What I can note, though, is that I had a great time watching 'Poor Things'. It's incredible. I have many a positive, though the main one is obvious: Emma Stone. All I can say is: Bravo! A truly outstanding performance!

Another major, major plus is the music. Wow! Sensational. It's so commanding throughout, blowing me away in what felt like every few minutes... and yet, it never distracts or takes you out from any scene unfolding onscreen. One of the greatest scores I've heard in a very long time. That aside, the visuals are amazing - from the colours to the sets, major props to all those beh...

Fantasy drama- comedy adult film directed by Yorgos Lanthimos (The Killing of the Sacred Deer, The Lobster, The Favourite) and written by Tony McNamara (The Great, The Favorite, Cruella), being based on the 1992's novel by Alasdair Gray, that Lanthimos liked and even went to Scotland in 2009 to buy the direct of the movie.

Having a victorian semi-steampunk and exquisite atmosphere it tells the story of a newly created woman Bella Baxter, with her body reanimated by the eccentric surgeon Godwin Baxter, that discovering that after her suicide jumping a bridge she was pregnant, and uses the unborn fetus brain on her head.

After this she went on a journey from a Frankenstein character and develops her tastes and skills gradually till the ...

How old when they start banging her? Very much a baby when she's a hot retard. If this isn't proof of pizzagate, I don't know what is.

Recommend watching as much as possible in the theatres and retiring to your most leisurely of spots for a pirated ending. Super enjoyable performances. Violent. Sensual. Lots of titties. A little long.

Director Yorgos Lanthimos sweeping cinematic spectacular film that explores the life of what it means to be human, a woman, what exactly is life, and what is love.

The tale follows Bella Baxter, a woman who had been given another chance at life in the weirdest medical experiment.

The film will make you think. It will stun you with its visual prowness from the direcotr, and the cast commitment to staying in character throughout.

Although I found the film to be the strangest tale mixed with aspects of Frankenstein and Eat, Pray, Love.

Do not try to think too deeply about what you see because this is a film that wants you to sit and enjoy it's story with fascination, and delight all of your senses.

I give it 4/5 stars for it's uniqueness.

Men bad. Interracially promiscuous socialist prostituted bisexual sociopathic women good. The end.

Thank you, feminism. I'm surprised there were no transpeople in this thing. Maybe in the director's cut.

Boring. So, so boring. You're sooo boooooring.

This film is nothing I thought it would be. I'm glad I'm of the ilk to watch something for at least 10 minutes or I might have turned it off. The plot was eccentric/odd to say the least, but it grew on me quickly thanks to the performances. All were outstanding to say the least and thought Ruffalo would take the supporting award. Stone and Dafoe brilliant work.

The cinematography was fantastic which kept me looking for more each scene. Director gave us a great ride of which I enjoyed very much.

I guess I'm trying to say, from start to finish, I enjoyed the ride, and everyone involved in this movie did an incredible job.

How this movie was not rated NC-17 is the greatest feat of Emma Stones career. Surpassing even two Oscars.

A woman jumps off a bridge and kills herself. Upon discovering her body our resident mad scientist takes it home , studies _the human body for dummies and goes to work. After his success the brain of our suicide victims baby Begins to grow up in its mothers body.

The Scientist invites a valued student to dinner to meet his creation Bella Baxter. It is not long before the student discovers Bellas special situation. Upon confronting his mentor an arraigned marriage is agreed upon.

Bella has other ideas. 35 in appearance but 16 in spirit she runs off with her fathers lawyer. Then she begins to experience life. Food.Sex.Food....
