Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Portia Hilton Blistering performances.

mariamsholaja If you are reluctant to start this series, please do not be. This series was thrilling form the absolute beginning to the end, it's honestly one of it's kind. The combination of art and pain is just riveting, and I request every single person to watch it. I honestly wish it was longer, I really do. Utterly amazing. (I really just created an account just now so I could write this review)

big_kmc This is so bad that it's literally laugh out loud funny. The dialogue of the Ballet director queen is predictably ridiculous and unreal. Every aspect of this show is predictable because all you have to do is just picture the dumbest direction the scene could possibly take and there it goes.

spongebobcheer Flesh and Bone is a mind-bending series, not in the way that Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan was though. What Black Swan had as a psychological thriller, Flesh and Bone has as real life drama, that seems too horrible at times to be real. A wonderfully executed series, Flesh and Bone will entice you before you even know that you've been enticed... then all 8-episodes will be finished. And you'll be left wanting more.The cast of Flesh and Bone is an ensemble that seems to pull away from each other, but then pull together, a dynamic that is hard to describe but is perfect for the content of the show.Newcomer Sarah Hay delivers a performance of pure raw emotion time and time again. Other company members portrayed by Emily Tyra, Irina Dvorovenko, and Raychel Diane Wiener all bring unique characters to life. Aside from the dancers, a standout character is Romeo, portrayed by Damon Herriman... a mentally ill homeless man. Watch for his performance, you will be blown away.Overall Flesh and Bone is a winner, a television series that ran for too short a time. Watch, and enjoy.

A_Different_Drummer The year was 1995 and Joe Eszterhas, the top of writer of the day for mainstream exploitation films, released (unleashed) his most exploitative script of all time -- Showgirls.At the time, it seemed like a slam dunk. It had something to push everyone's buttons. It was about strippers. It had dancing and sex. It had backstory. And just as additional insurance to guarantee greatness, the casting director deliberately picked the female star of a popular teen sitcom for the leading role -- guaranteeing a "shock" factor as the world watched a sweet teen icon go down the darkside.It should have worked but it didn't. The mass audience, the gestalt, seemed to belatedly develop a conscience and punished the film, presumably, as payback for all the earlier works of of Eszterhas' they enjoyed but probably shouldn't have.A major TV comic talking about the film (which was a flop within weeks of release) said "I haven't seen so many poles abused since WW2."Ironically 20 years later, with TV in full-on stratification and everyone with a video camera offering a new series, the writers of Flesh and Bone have taken the ideas comprising Showgirls and fixed them and repaired them.It is exploitative but does not make you feel guilty.Pretty good TV.
