Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Emilio Floris Like at least one of my fellow reviewers, I was laboring under the mistaken impression that I was watching M. Night Shyamalan's latest masterpiece until reaching the halfway mark after about one hour. Not so. This one is actually a nice little feminist movie about a pole dancer moonlighting in a lesbian theater production, which is not necessarily my cup of tea but equal and totally valid. The ladies might want to watch it for the quite attractive and often scantily clad male lead. Enjoy!

padresincabeza I watched this movie thinking it was Split by M. Night Shyamalan. Half way I realized I was watching the wrong movie but I decided to give it a chance. Well, what a mistake. This has to be the most pointless, boring, disgusting movie I have ever watched in my life. Now I understand to the letter the meaning of I rather watch paint dry.

TheInfamousAnon I normally would never review anything, but I saw the score this film had on here and A review and I felt it was given a disservice. I personally watched the film by mistake assuming it was Split with James McAvoy and only realized about 30 minutes in it was not, being so far in I decided to finish the film, AS any courteous film viewer would. The film as a whole is confusing, from the beginning it does not let you know what the true plot or point is, it leaves you in the same state the main character is in, facing the unknown. And as it develops you realize you are on a journey of self discovery with the lead Inanna(Amy Ferguson) and really a exploration of female sexuality and an unequal relationship. The true joy and beauty of the piece is the unapologetic female nudity and sexuality, at many moments there are women of all body types and races on screen and in no way do they feel sexualized by the male gaze or devalued in anyway. I found the male lead delightful, Derek(Morgan Spector) was played very well and the character felt deep and addled throughout, but just together enough for you to feel the same as Inanna as she falls for him. The film was supported by many great actors and actresses who made the whole feel thick and real, it hit on many issues worth thought and i would recommend this film to anyone who enjoys sexuality and intense self realization pieces. Though I must say there is a lot of sex and nudity so anyone faint of heart should think before watching but personally I say go for it.The movie is by Deborah Kampmeier, I have not seen her other films (Virgin, HOUNDDOG) but because of this film I am going to go watch them.

Jan Lisa Huttner This stunning new film uses familiar images from prior Kampmeier films (e.g., the naked women in the lake in VIRGIN, the snakes in HOUNDDOG, etc) to go in daring new directions that are even deeper, darker & more rewarding.Amy Ferguson is very good as "Inanna" (an actress piecing together a career in New York's Indie Theatre scene), but Morgan Spector is a revelation as "Derek" (a tormented artist who makes brilliant theatrical masks which seem to have been born in Julie Taymor's worst nightmares).SPLIT is not for the faint of heart & I have no doubt it will prove to be just as controversial as VIRGIN and HOUNDDOG. But remember this: no one knew Elizabeth Moss before Kampmeier cast her as the lead in VIRGIN, and Dakota Fanning had only played kid roles before Kampmeier cast her as the lead in HOUNDDOG. She also cast Robin Wright in key supporting roles in both films. So if actresses of this stature have put their trust in Deborah Kampmeier, then so should you!
