    The balls on Cronenberg and everyone who backed this. It's so much different from mainstream slop, yet so relevant and thought-provoking. Give it some time; it grows on you. Best first date movie pick, imo.

    I guess every movie worth the time to watch it. Just go, David Cronenberg passed the message he wanted to and it make sense from a perspective of evolution. The acting are not so good but yea, give it a try.

    Visually spectacular return to body horror by Cronenberg, but lacking in brilliance in terms of dialogue and plot.

    Just a ‘no’. Weird, dark, limited character appeal, couldn’t get into it, not my cuppa tea. Ditched it after an hour. Sorry if offend anyone who likes complete left-field stuff.

    hen it's weird, it's cool. Outside of Cronenberg's classic body horror, its honest attempt to achieve depth on high art society doesn't result in a story (or point) that's sufficiently compelling by the time the credits roll.

    My quick rating - 6.3/10. I have been looking forward to this one. Typically, everything David Cronenberg has his hands on is good stuff...and weird.

    Since I’m in Greece, it felt like a good time to catch up on David Cronenberg’s Crimes of the Future — filmed in Greece. I really loved the gnarly world building established here—Surgery as performance art, a national organ registry, accelerated evolution syndrome, plastic eaters—even if the underlying ideas aren’t totally fleshed out. Howard Shore’s score is excellent and provides the perfect accompaniment to the visuals which are equal parts grotesque and resplendent. 
 Léa Seydoux……stunning. 
This is definitely one for which I’m eager to read more reviews and analyses, as there’s much to unpack.  Even though I don’t necessarily think all of it’s big ideas come together for a cohesive whole, I absolutely enjoyed the hell out of the experience.
