Skins

I've seen reviews of this movie everywhere, and they're all the same. "Most uncomfortable movie ever" "Don't watch this while eating" "Disturbing". I'm honestly baffled. I would pay to see those people watch Midsommar lol.

Anyway, I thought it was quite a beautiful movie. It shows the lives of people with a physical disability and how society sees them. Yes, it's cruel, but the ending is wholesome and satisfying. I wouldn't say it's a very good movie, but I will say it's a beautiful one.

Maybe I've just seen too many disturbing movies but this one was quite vanilla in my opinion. However, I get where people are coming from. The implied pedophilia wasn't necessarily pleasant, and I get that mentions of self harm and suicide can be shocking to some viewers. But on the other hand, without it, the movie wouldn't have the same weight. So overall, I feel like they made a good decision putting subjects like that in it.

I don't know if I'll recommend this movie to anyone, but I wouldn't advice against it. 6/10.

If you liked the Human Centipede, you'll love this.

Just when you think no movie can surprises you, something small and sharp like this strikes you and leave you shocked. A brilliant non hollywoodish masterpiece out of nowhere.

a movie that seems to come from a similar but different world... the colours, the weird and beautiful pictures playing around with the soundtrack, the body positivity message, the tragic, the darkest dephts of human desires, the laughter that sometimes gets stuck in your throat... this movie has everything. if you're looking for something that touches you in 51 shades from pink to deep dark soul black, this is your movie. no scene is everage. i couldn't stop getting enough of it. for all those shiny perfect body/faces/etc. movies (with one fat/gay funny friend for the laughs) this film is the electrifying antipode.

btw, i do not had the feeling this movie glorifies child molestation at all (what another user found). in my opinion it wants to show how cruel the world is - and in the other hand - how beautiful it can be.

The first film by Eduardo Casanova, accustomed to directing short films - of excellent qualities - the young director makes a great short in his first feature. Portraying a group of people, where all suffer from some type of deformity, whether physically or psychologically, we have a woman with the anus instead of the mouth, a man who has the dream of cutting his legs to become a mermaid, a prostitute with Skin, instead of the eyes passing through a pedophile man, another who feels attraction to the deformity of others, and even the man who puts his gain ahead of life, "Skins" beats everyone and exposes the human deformity in the most explicit way possible by doing Viewer to reflect on that deformity of character that we all crave. The script that tries to emulate a kind of magnolia of taste I very much doubt - and with 2 hours less - exactly in its duration, with less than an hour and a half of duration, the developments of the characters is completely impaired, we have only a broad idea , Where each character will have its story developed in ten minutes with some interconnections between them, technically, Eduardo Casanova lavishes talent, with an extremely cold photograph and symmetrical angles, his frame remembers names like Wes Anderson, always appealing to the color pink, his Costume is remarkable as its soundtrack, full of Spanish songs that go from this to pop to erudite, its makeup is also great, its perfect rhythm, technically the film really pleases a lot, Casanova had a lot of freedom, better to accompany the young director in his Upcoming work, talent we already have. Finally, "Pieles" is a nice film despite being deplorable, we have the aesthetic symmetry supported the complete bizarre of "extreme cinema" we have a heavy message shown in an even heavier way, we have many problems, it is true, as much performances Weak, little development, and little screen time, we have many great ideas, but little time to develop, but finally, it is a film of cinema and for those who love art.
