Metamorphosis

Movie night on a Saturday night, just kickin back..."when we finally find a "decent movie, or so we thought" Well, let me save you the time and curiosity...."don't watch this cheap, overly dramatic, weird, confusing (and you know what I mean, very bad movie)?!. If I could take it back I would, "give me my time back, and really bad memories." The guy doesn't turn into a cockroach, and I guess the best award I could give the actress who played the dudes wife would be "please go back to acting school." I'm giving this el stinko movie a whopping 3 stars, and I just wanted to warn anyone, "don't watch it!"

Man turns into a giant cockroach over night, and his family doesn't know what to do with him, or it. Very weird movie, not a horror film, but more a drama about what the family does, when one of the members all at once becomes a big insect. Based on a short story from Franz Kafka, this is indeed a weird movie.

One of the best adaptations of Metamorphosis I have seen.

Bringing Gregor to life is a truly difficult task, and this film does it remarkably well. It is beautifully crafted and skillfully executed.

The adaptation stays very true to Kafka's original work-capturing all the major and essential parts of the story. Of course, no film can include everything from the book, and the same is true here, but the excellent narration more than makes up for it.

The scenes shown from Gregor's perspective are especially striking and memorable.

It's disheartening to see some people giving negative ratings to this masterpiece, perhaps without realizing how significant The Metamorphosis is as a literary text.

A must-watch for every fan of Metamorphosis.
