This must be the stinkiest movie I have watched this year. It makes Terrence Malick's The Tree of Life looks like a Hollywood blockbuster.
And here's some of the supposedly gushing reviews from Wikipedia!
"Xan Brooks of The Guardian gave Under the Skin five out of five and called it "far and away the best picture" in the Venice Film Festival.[15] Peter Bradshaw, also of The Guardian, said it was "visually stunning and deeply disturbing",[16] and gave the film a perfect score of five stars, along with Andrew Lowry of Total Film,[17] Dave Calhoun of Time Out,[18] and Kate Muir of The Times,[19] Robbie Collin of The Daily Telegraph also gave it five stars, and wrote: "if my legs hadn't been so wobbly and my mouth so dry, I would have climbed up on my seat and cheered."[20] Richard Roeper, meanwhile, gave the film an A+[21] and four out of four stars, stating, "This is what we talk about when we talk about film as art,"[22] while Christy Lemire also awarded the film a perfect four-star review, calling it an "undeniably haunting, singular experience," as well as calling it one of the best films of 2014.[23]"
It's a pretentious, intensely boring, meaninglessly meandering, plotless pile of turd I tell you. And I like The Tree of Life!
