    Poor Things is a gorgeous tale about a Woman who is revived by a Frankenstein creator like character and is very quirky and has a funny adventure going for it as the main character of Bella Baxter goes on a journey with another character who accompanies her. The visuals are stunning, there is title screens that simply sweep you away, Emma Stone has the best performance of her career here with Mark Ruffalo doing a mad good job and Willem Dafoe and the movie is simply a perfect blend of sci-fi, drama, and suspense. There are brothel scenes which are surely inappropriate and skippable but the movie is a sure classic.

    Excellent acting and totally unique. Entertained for every minute of the film, and found myself invested in and rooting for all of the characters good and bad. A masterpiece.

    The most stunning, and brilliantly shot movie I’ve ever seen, a little much on the racy stuff, but other than that, incredible plot, incredible acting, one of my favorite movies ever, a must see wether you like this stuff or not!

    I almost turned it off after 20 minutes. Kind of boring start. A friend encouraged me to keep watching. It picks up. I can see why it got several individual awards but in total it just didn't click for me. I definitely won't watch it again. My wife might like it

    The movie is absolutely gorgeous with its cinematography, score, set and costume design etc. But the vile amount of fornication every other minute makes this movie painfully irritating. It is like they are trying to meet a quota on how much sin they can fit on the screen. Besides that this movie would get a 4 star rating for me.

    Excellent acting cannot make up for a tired plot, mediocre script, and terrible pacing. I don't understand the other critics exclaiming about the film's creativity. This story is simply a "man out of place" story with a lot more boobs. The director shamelessly steals from others both in framing and design. The jokes fall flat. There is not a moment where you are concerned for the characters, and the ending missed completely. This is a bad student film with a huge budget. Don't waste your time.

    As always, the scenes are very well-shot, but the plot is just crazy and nonsensical. Someone is going to tell me that I am just not understanding it. I want to understand it, but I just know that there is nothing to understand here.
