Where to Watch Gummo
Gummo Ratings & Reviews
- pl84191−2 dBleak, disturbing, nontraditional subject matter and imagery. Values mood, texture, atmosphere, and character vignettes over a clear plot or resolution. Unfiltered glimpses into fringe lives, oddball behavior, and social decay rather than sanitized depictions. Indie, underground, avant-garde, uncomfortable, curious.
- Mikkel B3 februari 2026If you're someone who wants to see the consequences of neglect and depravity, you would probably enjoy this movie. In my case, it wasn't enjoyable to watch, nor did it provide anything of merit. What it did do, was subject me to sigh-inducing cynicism. If you want a believable peek behind the curtain of evil preteens and teenagers, Gummo can give you that. Showing a dozen dead cats didn't add to the movies immersion nor its "realism", it just made me disinterested. I'd say this movie had some good comedic parts, if they weren't overshadowed by scenes of a pimped-out mentally disabled girl or kids hunting cats. I thought the acting was really good. I thought the cinematography was pretty good, some shots are very pretty, albeit a little cliche. Dialogue felt believable, at least to me, though i don't have a real grasp of how kids from Ohio in the 90's talked. Other than showcasing the town's poverty, I don't really understand the tornados significance to the story? the poverty probably *is* the significance, but i feel like you could scrap the tornado entirely and just set the story in an impoverished town that isn't reeling from a tornado from 20 years ago. I want to understand it, but I can't deny that it isn't my cup of tea.
- NonPlayableContent30 september 2025The extremes of neglect and negative reinforcement. A movie you only need to watch once even if you like it because you'll always remember how it made you feel.
