It was fine, I enjoyed it, although I probably wouldn't watch it again. Kstew got me going in a couple parts. The entirety of the movie is just a look at one question, and that's also fine. It was decent and worthwhile to see.
laughed out loud when the credits rolled not expecting this to basically be a truncated short story adaptation. still, not unhappy with what we got, some appetizing morsels to chew on.
bad self parody from a has been kike with garbage digital production value
perfect for tasteless and narcissistic festival letterboxd reviewers to circlejerk over for one week to inflate their pathetic ego because they saw it in advance, and then forget about instantly
the same circus every cannes season, it's abhorrent
The good >Viggo gave a kino performance, Léa worked really alongside him >lots of cool scenes and great atmosphere >interesting concept and ideas >beautiful soundtrack
The bad >lots of horrible miscasts >Lang wasn't convincing and the black cop had zero acting skills >story was all over the place, unresolved storylines, too many questions and little answers
I liked it for the atmosphere, themes and characters but it's a very mixed bag
So the people who eat plastic are seen as monsters but why?
It's not like people don't know there's horrible mutations going around, wouldn't eating plastic be good? Lots of plastic in the water and such or are we supposed to fear this because humans would all become like that and then run out of plastic and die?
From what I could understand, the government is against letting people keep new organs because people would stop being human and they'd become an entirely new species
Also because they're le bad cops that want to maintain the status quo because they're le bad
Agreed but the movie isn't ambiguous or open-ended, instead it just presents a shit ton of ideas and plot beats to you and does nothing with most of them
is there something specific you wish he went more in depth on? i was pretty satisfied by the end tho i guess i couldve done with a bit more info about the murderous lesbians
Like you said, the murderous lesbians felt like a loose plot thread. I remember seeing the credits roll and being like, "wtf I thought there were still 10 minutes left". Maybe I'm a tard but I still don't get their motivations or why they did what they did
Other than that I was mostly satisfied with the story
some future where human bodies are mutating and growing new organs. we follow performance artists who surgically remove the organs as an artistic statement when they are grown in aragorns body
A performance artist who removes the organs that grow inside his body for his shows finds himself tasked with infiltrating a gang of plastic eaters
The movie is so broad that it's hard to summarize, but if I had to boil it down to a logline, that's what I'd say
I'm all ears
CARLOS!
Waiting for the all ears pepe/apu memes.
does he say that in the movie?
>those digits
can i pirate this yet
I'm waiting too, I'd gladly see it in the cinema, but I live in the middle of fucking nowhere and the local cinemas only show woke shit.
w2w?
that vfx is bad. i buy the fly, even fully transformed, as a being that exists. i dont buy this.
why dont you learn how to speak english then come back later, or never
he said everything correctly, maybe you should take your own advice
>he
retarded esl homosexual, i hope you get into a life changing accident
Grammar autist
dude just give up. just stop.
it's someone who attached ears to themselves surgically, not a person who naturally has ears eveywhere.
>from the mind of
le shocking imagery

its pretty easy to interpret them as trannys
>So the people who eat plastic are seen as monsters but why?
'ate mutants
'ate AIs
'ate posthumans
simple as
kek its not a bad thing if the movie doesnt answer every single thing it shows on the screen

can you explain this because i don’t even know the premise after watching the trailer

A performance artist who removes the organs that grow inside his body for his shows finds himself tasked with infiltrating a gang of plastic eaters

I didn't even know it was out.
>Dude, what if you staple ears to your face?
Bravo, David.
*jaw-cracking yawn*
His son kinda ruined the Cronenberg name by releasing one of the worst movies I've ever seen. Might not watch this new one
based brainlet
brainlet, his son only released good movies too
antiviral and possessor were both kino, you're a fucking retard
Can't be any worse a director than David Lynch's daughter
good bait, i love possessor too anon, i love it too
I didnt like the Robert Pattinson one like at all. Will I like this one?
No. 80's Cronenberg is the only good Cronenberg
Hoping that my local kinoplex shows it on Friday, don't wanna have to go out of my way.
>new Cronenkino
>starring that cunt Seydoux
>and that other cunt Stewart
Fuck me sideways.
they do a great job
I couldn't tell if Kristen was acting autistic because it was her character or because she can't act
Is he using CGI for this one? Lay it on me anon.
every movie made now has cgi but the stuff in crimes of the future isnt bad at all
>yes
Maybe it looks alright, but I expect better from Cronenberg.
John Carpenter was right about Cronenberg.
Two young girls thirsting over a 60 year old man would've been weird if Viggo wasn't so handsome
