Dans ma peau (2002)
SPOILER -- With Good Reason
SPOILER This film, while fascinating and beautifully made, seems little more than a glorification of self-mutilation. Other users have called it self-love or masturbation, and they mean it in a positive way. But inflicting pain on oneself, mutilating oneself, is not self-love. Masturbation is a wonderful way of making your body feel good. Cutting off pieces of your own flesh and eating them doesn't make your body feel good and shouldn't be glorified or reviewed positively.
So if I've spoiled the movie for you, I must say I'm glad. You don't need to watch this film. You need to do something good for yourself and for your body and leave this movie on the shelf.
Toys (1992)
A Movie for Those Of Us Who Refuse To Grow Up
This movie rivals Time Bandits for the best movie for adults who refuse to grow up. It has all the subtle, intelligent jokes the adult in you could want, AND all of the slapstick and visual humor the child in you needs. The entire move is set in a huge field of very green grass. The colors are primary and silly. The subtext is incredibly fascinating. And the music! The music involves some of the best rock and pop artists of the time! Hooray for Toys!
Crash (1996)
Sex and death in the worst way.
A handful of fairly good actors give decent performances in a story about death, disfigurement, and sex. Unfortunately, the material in no way lives up to the talent spent on it. The characters' sexual obsession with car crashes is not only distasteful, but truly unbelievable. Though titillating, the sex seems as self-destructive as the obsession. Isn't your fondest dream to have your sweetheart mangled and disabled in a crash?
