-
The fusion of dream sequences and evocative landscapes makes the characters' feverish sense of living at the edge of reality contagious.

Kate Winslet, luscious in a brilliantly colored caftan and flushed from the heat of an African sun, makes a beautiful hippie, circa 1972, in Hideous Kinky.
September 7, 2011 | Rating: B | Full Review… -
Kate Winslet continues an uninterrupted line of fine performances with the modest yet affecting Hideous Kinky.
March 26, 2009 -
MacKinnon draws terrific performances from all involved (Winslet bravely refusing to court our sympathies), lets character, mood and meaning take precedence over story, and assembles a great music track as a bonus. Spot on.

It augurs well for the long-term integrity of her career that Winslet in this movie doesn't try to ingratiate herself with the audience.

Apr 08, 2010I don't think this is something I'd come back to and watch over and over again. But Kate Winslet was great as a self-centered and, at times, delusional mother who still really does care for her kids. Interesting and well acted.Sarah P Super Reviewer

Jan 11, 2010I enjoyed the movie. I watched it a while ago so I don't have much to offer. I remember thinking that it was very pretty. The young girls were adorable.Megan S Super Reviewer

Oct 07, 2008Good indie movie that portrays "Arabs" and Muslims in a humanizing light. It was refreshing to see these people of color portrayed as something other than terrorists and foils in some unimaginative action film. "Kinky" made me a fan of Saïd Taghmaoui and made me respect Kate Winslet more as an actress. I was particularly surprised (and proud, actually) to see North Africans actually calling themselves "African." I'd love to see more films like this.Remi L Super Reviewer
