The Woman: Nem Todo Monstro Vive na Selva

I am not sure if this is a dark comedy, og a thriller? Its not a horror! The film gets more and more sick, to a point where you have to laugh. Its well made. The acting is okay. The music seems to be very loud compared to talking and other sounds.... I found it entertaining, and I still think about it, here two days after watching it :-)

The was a decent movie. An odd premise but the film maker made it work. This music in it is downright awful. It's laughable it is so bad. The musician must have been great friends with the producers. There no other explanation. And it's not just that it's bad but it is mixed way too high. This could have been higher rated but the music is just a rookie mistake.

Not at all what I expected. It was rather intense at many different points throughout and the characters always had my full attention. A nice tight script, albeit with some lose ends that left me wondering why? But overall this is a really good film, if you don't mind some graphic scenes.

I found the music way more disturbing than anything in the film. The levels of the music were way too loud compared to the rest of the sounds in the film. I really wanted to enjoy this but the music ruined it. Seems like the director owed someone a favor or they held his family captive unless he put this music in his movie.

Gory in parts, but some cracking performances by the actors, and though a slightly predictable plot, it kept me at the edge of my seat nearly all the way through. A powerful performance from Pollyanna McIntosh. She stole the movie. She has just the right amount of masculine feral power mixed with feminine vulnerability to make her character truly believable and you root for her and the final denouement all the way through the film. The air of menace mixed with devastating elements of bullying and cruelty by the sadistic father and his effect on the psyches of his family are well handled and plausible.

Highly recommended.
