फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
It is very hard to have an opinion about We are the Flesh: in one way it says nothing at all,, but on the other hand it shows a great apocalyptic vision of people brought together in a situation driven to despair... at least in some way. I didn't like the boredom of the movie,, but I highly cheer for the level of experimenting in this movie.
Wish I could say it wasn't that bad, I like it, or rather parts of it.
When I saw the poster at a local theater I was thinking this was going to be a Si-Fi horror film. Even the synopsis gave me this ideal, and it was horrifying but more in a human way rather than super natural.
So two kids end up in a place were they meet a man whose out of his mind and the three have bizarre sexual encounters with one another.
I did like the crazy dude in the film, he was disturbing in that horrific sort of way.
Plus, I can't give a movie to low of a score considering it had so much awesome nudity and strong sexual content in it (Just being honesty).
But what I was expecting from the small paragraph that help me get interested in seeing the movie was not what I ended up seeing. I felt the ad campaign was met to be a metaphor of something. We Are the Flesh is very similar to M. Night Shyamalan's the Village in that all it's not what it seems, but with far less story (Or no story at all cause I really have no idea what this movie is about or trying to say).
When the movie starts and I realizes that it's a very small indi film in a foreign language I was expecting far more talking, but a lot of what I got was interpretive movement and in your face nudity (Which is where I think the actual name of the film was met to be about).
So I'm into hard core sex in mainstream movies but whatever the filmmakers wanted me to feel by watching this experimental feature I did not feel (Unless they wanted me to feel horny).

This film's main problem is that it doesn't make any sense. He's trying to be David Lynch and failing. I don't mind the "transgressive" routine, it's that it ultimately doesn't really go anywhere. Ambitious, but ultimately... meh.
After seemingly wandering a ruined city for years in search of food and shelter, two siblings find their way into one of the last remaining buildings. Inside, they find a man who will make them a dangerous offer to survive the outside world.
For me, this film is all about the rich color of the cinematography (from Yollótl Alvarado), the depth of the sound (from Esteban Aldrete), and the overall atmosphere. I could have used a bit less dizzying camera movement, however, though it does have an underlying purpose. Whether you appreciate the plot and situations or not (and many will not), there is no denying the craft of the camera and sound.
Variety noted that the film was an "extreme Mexican fiesta of incest, cannibalism and explicit sex that should earn detractors and fans in equal measure." Other reviewers have called it simultaneously boring and shocking. It really is all these things... some moments were too much for me to really enjoy the picture, as the shock factor seemed gratuitous -- unlike the extremes of "Visitor Q" or "Salo", which have a clear satirical purpose.
Now, to be fair, "We Are the Flesh" does have its satirical moments. It has digs on "blind patriotism" and attacks the ritualism of religion, specifically Catholicism. As the film progresses, more of this is evident and we realize how much the social conventions and expectations are turned on their head. (Some of the most subtle moments are not even realized until we learn the "names" of the characters from the credits!)
"We Are the Flesh" made quite the impact during 2016 on the festival circuit. I had my first opportunity to see it at Montreal's Fantasia. There was never any doubt that it would be picked up for distribution, though it comes as a surprise that the ones who came along were Arrow Video. Arrow is without question one of the best film distributors in existence, but their focus tends to be classic cult, not contemporary.
Regardless, Arrow pulls all the stops with their Blu-ray. We have new interviews with the director and cast, as well as a highly enlightening visual essay from critic Virginie Sélavy, where she explains easily-overlooked symbolism and draws parallels to the work of Alejandro Jodorowsky. Perhaps best of all ,the disc has two other short films from director Emiliano Rocha Minter: "Dentro" and "Videohome", to really round out the experience.

Rated TV-MA in the version I saw, but certainly not for any television station I could ever think of. Way rougher than that. There is an abundance of flesh, often shown in different color filters, which add impact to the scenes. It is supposed to be set in a ruined city in a decrepit building, where two young people come across a rather disturbed man who seems in charge of the building. He gives them shelter and food, and in return they work to erect structures inside the building. The two are brothers and sisters. It is difficult to say anything more without spoiling the movie. To say the least, it is rather far out. But also intriguing. Certainly not for everyone. Many wold appreciate the creative use of color and shadow in telling the story. I am straddling the rating, as some may rate it higher for the unique approach to film making, and others lower due to the subject matter.
