Melly B @RT02800281 Apr 22 This was the most disturbing film. I had to walk out during the rape scene. I felt like it was just too art house throwing everything into it. Lead actress was fantastic! See more Alexsander F @Aelxs Mar 26 Psychologically arresting. Isabelle Huppert remains one of the most sonorous names I have ever encountered — while Michael Haneke turns the experience into a study of unconsummated fetishes and possible misunderstandings between interlocutors. In short, a feast for Freudian psychoanalysis. See more retro b @retrobite Feb 1 It is an outrage against 'High Culture.' There is no love, there is a guerrilla war between the thighs. It is the total defeat of harmony. The film is an infrarrealist poem, a search for beauty at the bottom of a trash bag in a public restroom. Haneke lacked more filth but had an excess of hatred. You simply have to see it. Es un atropello a la "Alta Cultura'". No hay amor, hay una guerra de guerrillas entre los muslos. Es la derrota total de la armonía. La película es un poema infrarrealista, una búsqueda de la belleza en el fondo de una bolsa de basura en un baño público. A Haneke le faltó más mugre pero le sobro odio. Simplemente tienes que verla See more Richard B @RichardB12314 Jan 27 A highly conflated version of the novel. Some of the changes aren't really better, but expedient. Unless you're mentally ill, it says nothing about male and female relationships. It's better to read the novel, but not much better. See more Leprechaun K @LeprechaunKing Jan 17 The movie is as powerful as it is disturbing. Huppert's performance is outstanding. It is not an enjoyable movie and quite painful to watch during some scenes. This is arthouse cinema at the extreme. See more Brendon S. @RT53318968 Jan 9 My favorite movie. Michael Haneke is one of the best directors, using great cinematography and encouraging fantastic actors to tell a deeply unsettling story about sexual repression. See more Read all reviews
