My Greek friend gave me the heads' up about this movie a while ago. I have finally got around to watching it on Disney+. I'm very grateful for the recommendation.
Firstly this movie is; if you forgive me; not for the faint-hearted. It's extreme. It's also extremely experimental arthouse ala Wes Anderson meets Wong Kar Wai and a dystopian movie such as Blade Runner and George Orwell's classic novels.
It's set in a bizarre world in the future yet it's also representing the past with the clothes and people's costumes set on late Victorian era with French flair thrown-in for good measure. Interesting.
The art direction is absolutely another level. There is plenty of special fx and CGI used. The face mask for the talented surgeon is also astounding.
Acting is absolutely on-point and utterly mesmerising. However Emma Stone takes it up to another level. Oh wow. She makes the heavy nature of animalistic voyerism and sex look innocent. She unwinds her body to a state of purity which is incredible-to-watch.
Just utterly divine acting. Showcasing many skills which you have to learn in order to get right with the brain functionality being lost. I have rarely seen such mesmerising and yet such poetic acting as she comes from leaps and bounds and matures to the actual women which her body has become. She made an incredibly difficult transition process look normal. Wow. Talent.
I don't want to give much away but this movie was incredible. Mesmerising. Difficult. Wonderment. Divine. Godly. Scientific. Hellish. Debouchery. Challenging.
We really need to take care of society and bridge the gap between billionaires and the poor. This film is a perfect example of what could go wrong. Please watch and educate yourself.
