The Worst Film Ever
Platicsco
Good story, Not enough for a whole film

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

There will be people who only see this film as a gore/horror movie because of its disturbing scenery but as in fact it is a film that has been so well thought. It touches ones heart with sorrow, therewithal it shows even the ones who are believed to be perfect and happy on the outside may have a damaged soul beneath.Esther spoke to me in various ways, how at the beginning she wasn't planning any of this and suddenly she just wanted to experience the pain to the hilt. But after that she realises pain is just a superficial thing so as your body. Later on she begins to see her body as what it is: flesh. Something that has been separate from her thoughts or dreams or even feelings. She discovers that to become truly herself the thought itself is enough. She tries to communicate, even tries to explain her feels but then she understands that she thinks differently from everyone else around her, and her boyfriend and colleagues won't ever be able to understand what she's been going through because at one point she was still trying to figure out what was going on with her truly. Its a though journey to film but the director managed to do it just perfectly. I call this movie a psychological masterpiece because it simply is.

This film was great in a way, but also quite graphic. Some of the scenes left me hiding away, and yelling "no, don't do that!" I quite like how graphic it is, but it is also a film that is hard to understand. I think it shows how no one understands her desire to self harm. No one truly understands self-harm in the real world, unless they have been through it themselves. One thing I really didn't understand was the ending. I won't say what it was (because spoilers) but it wasn't the greatest. It didn't leave me feeling emotional at all, and it felt like that shouldn't have been the end.I had no emotional attachment to the characters. I felt absorbed into their lives, but I didn't hate them or love them, I didn't feel anything for them. I guess that isn't such a bad thing, as it means I'm not crying my eyes out on top of a wet pillow or something. I am a self harmer, and I was recommended this film by someone else who self-harms. It is good to watch, if you are not easily triggered by images of wounds, but if you are easily triggered, then I would say don't watch it.

In the slow, hidden meaning, and dark secret kind of movies, we come across something like this.Once again, in western type movies, the protagonist always have to throw what they feel at the audience so the audience doesn't have to think. This one will. The fact that she does things that you wouldn't think you do yourself and reacts on it later will have you mind-boggled. we all have our own way of dealing with things. This one tends to deal with a more dark and gruesome way to deal with it. Which is simply fine, if you can stomach some of the scenes in the movie, and love to try to read the underlying meaning within the movie to try to get the real beauty out. Id say give it a watch 7/10

I would not say that what I just have seen is a real horror. I would call it drama with a little sickening horror twist. I can believe that it isn't for everybody. It was made one year before Haute Tension, the start of the French sickies. The storyline is simple. A simple and normal girl has no problem at all until at a party she falls in a bunch of metal things. She won't make any notice of it and parties on before going to a hospital. There she got the news that she came too late to heal it properly. She has to go under surgery but she doesn't want it. But she becomes obsessed with her wounds. The feeling in her leg goes away and she starts cutting herself until things really go wrong with her. Horror geeks will have a problem with the movie due the reason that they talk a lot, typical for French movies. And drama geeks will cut away once she will go wild on her wounds. So it's up to y'all to watch it. But if you want to see the evolvement of French sickies then you better watch it. At the end of the day, if you liked Cutting Moments than this is your piece of cake.
