No action, no words believable, so it’s disconnected from the audience
Aesthetically stunning. On top of that, the script is almost laughable and the dialogues even more so.
I’m not quite sure what’s been done to the sound, is every line redone after post production?
It ends up being very flat and takes away the spice you’d expect from a great actress like Noemie Merlant. In this sense, the entire cast is impressive as it gives its best to an empty shell.
I barely made it
Dozens of people left the room during the movie, the first after 10 minutes. I personally fought to stay, out of respect for the Cast and Crew (Naomi Watts is such a good actress) and Cinema itself.
The end brings nothing
I started running worried that the 2024 version of the famously erotic title was stamped on a film that in no way reflects the evolution of feminism and female pleasure since 1974.
