Emilia Pérez Rezensionen & Wertungen
- Hipster ZOMBIE24. Januar 2025Hilariously bad. The fact this isn’t up for all the razzie awards this year shows the Academy are trying to make a political statement by nominating this for 13 awards. The pacing is weird, the songs are hilariously bad and Selena Gomez delivers one of the most unintentionally funny performances of the year. If I could give it no stars I would.
- bradshaw5201127. März 2026Horrible
- Alexander Sierputowski17. November 2025Watched 21 min, and fell asleep. Really boring. Decent background movie?
- rg940023. November 2024I feel like someone is playing a joke on me because this is barely a coherent movie, let alone a potential Oscar contender. First thing is first, this movie is a full-blown musical. Maybe it's on me for not realizing that, but none of the buzz surrounding this movie really highlighted that aspect. I am not opposed to musicals as such, but the first half of this movie is almost constantly characters breaking into song. The second half has a few more natural scenes of action and dialogue, but a lot of this movie is not that. All the dialogue is delivered in this breathy whisper and staccato rhythm, even if there isn't a dance scene involved. The result is that the movie never truly feels naturalistic. Indeed, the musical numbers are often very exaggerated in terms of choreography, with very jerky and extreme movements. The camerawork is also extremely stylized, swiveling dramatically through the dance with flashy cinematography and lighting. Honestly, it can look excellent at times. However, it's impossible to engage with the movie properly due to how immersion-breaking all the songs are. This isn't endemic to all musicals. Often times, the lyrics in the songs are heartfelt and deep, the choreography aiming for a certain type of visual storytelling. In attempting to be so bold and audacious with its stylization, the movie eschews focusing on this type of storytelling. The dialogue is laughably bad, and the choreography is not aligned with the characterization or plot of the movie at all. Zoe's acting as Rita might be well-done, but I barely understood Rita's motivations or struggles. The movie is attempting to make some sort of message surrounding criminal violence in Mexico, but it's completely lost. Most alarmingly, it feels like the trans message within the movie almost feels as if the movie is treating a trans awakening as a way to escape your old life less than an actual identity struggle for the main character. I do think the movie does have some interesting concepts around Emilia's personal struggles with her prior family, but it struggles to make the viewer care. If you want to watch a bunch of admittedly well-shot music videos, this might be an okay watch for you. However, if you are looking for a good story or characters or themes, I would look elsewhere.
- Frances4. Februar 2025I have so many questions: Why oh why didn't they hire a Mexican cast? Why didn't they film in Mexico? Why is it nominated for so many awards? Who is making these decisions? I guess we'll never know... I honestly tried to give this movie a chance for what (I think) it was trying to be but I just can't get over how cringey the Spanish is, the dialogue and the pronunciation. Yikes! Who talks like that????
- Cubane27. Oktober 2025It feels like a carefully orchestrated piece of performance art designed to assiduously wreck whatever public influence the motion picture academy has left, and they fell for it hook, line and sinker. End to end, penis to vagina.
- Monkey See! Monkey Review!!8. September 2025The trailer for Emilia Pérez had me genuinely intrigued. With glowing reviews and a visually striking aesthetic, I went in expecting something bold and compelling. And visually, the film delivers—it’s beautifully shot, with a gritty realism that gives weight to its themes. But where it lost me was in its unexpected musical format. TDLR -> If you’re open to genre-blending and enjoy musicals that push boundaries, Emilia Pérez could be worth your time. For me, it was a miss—but maybe it’ll strike a chord with you. I understand that musicals have their own rhythm and storytelling style, but in this case, the musical interludes felt jarring and out of place. Songs would erupt mid-dialogue without warning, making it hard to stay emotionally invested in the narrative. What’s more, skipping the musical numbers isn’t really an option—key plot developments are embedded within them. That might work if the songs were memorable or emotionally resonant, but for me, they weren’t. They felt more like interruptions than enhancements. After about 30 minutes, I found myself questioning whether I wanted to commit two full hours to this experience. Ultimately, I didn’t. I skipped ahead to the final 15 minutes just to see how it wrapped up. So while I can’t speak to every nuance of the film, I can say that if you’re not a fan of musicals—or if you prefer your gritty dramas without spontaneous song breaks—this might be a tough watch.

- Kevin Ward1. Juli 2025I really enjoyed this. Zoe Saldaña really impressed. Loved the musical numbers, the choreography, cinematography, really everything about the aesthetic. A music number at a gala where Saldaña is dancing on a tabletop and the patrons are frozen in place, (until they’re not), was really visually striking. Another number has a group of cartel gunmen locking and loading their rifles to the syncopated rhythm of the music. Cool stuff. I was enthralled from start to finish. It’s over-the-top and way out there with heavy melodrama mixed in with this musical crime drama. For me, it really worked though. The musical numbers feel like they’re putting an emphasis on those over-the-top, melodramatic elements and unsubtly reminding us that this is all for show, intentionally theatrical.
- Varun22. November 2024The premise is so wild but unfortunately the movie didn’t succeed in doing anything interesting with it. Emilia’s switching between a soft and terrifying personality throughout was the only engaging part of the film. She is a nuanced character but I feel like the constant showcasing of her hypocrisy eventually caricatured her and made her development way less interesting. Rita and Jessi are boring characters that don’t seem to have any agency of their own. For a musical, I expect way more visual style but instead the movie just looks dull with a very bland colour tone. Some of the songs felt unneeded, others were decent, but none made any lasting impact on me or was rememberable (language barrier probably contributed to this too). I think Emilia should’ve been thrust into more challenging situations that forced her to deal with her previous life in crime, there just didn’t seem to be any big or riveting plot in the second half. A musical with a premise like this had lots of potential but ended up being quite mediocre and it took me to a few days to finish it because nothing about it was captivating.
- jasonmbergman24. Februar 2025Pick a lane. Besides the awkward cinematic breakups the only reason I knew it was musical was the italicized subtitles. Saldana did a solid job is why it got a full star.
- Owlstance20. August 2025Insulting.
- Amr Zalat2. April 2025Awful script, bad writing, aimless plot. Total waste of time.
- sopula29. Mai 2025I’m not sure that the intended message from the creators was received, definitely hard to work out. Which i dont think is a bad thing Not very pleasant experience, although i would say it succeeds as a opera/operette with its seemingly insane and hard to sympathise with protagonist who’s massive ego leads to tragedy being that its a musical it lacks a lot of subtlety. Perhaps overly ambitious?? I’m glad i watched it Also maybe 13 oscar nominations is too many.
- Carl Z19. Mai 2025The story was confusing to follow.
