More pornographic then artistic, i see the message and the way it which the film is structure is interesting but the images and graphic nature of the personal areas of the body are to close to pornography in my opinion!
Oh no gave it a 6:
It's easy for some American "Bourgeois" to be cynical about this movie, in fact it's a well done picture of american "ghetto" way of life... The sad thing about it is the Frenchies import the idea.
Thunder Werks gave it a 10:
Thelma and Louise with penetration. Nasty sex, senseless violence and horrid politics. When does the Fox series begin?
Oh No! More Gilbert Mulroneycakes gave it a 2:
Yes, well, not to stoop to rather ugly personal abuse, but the message to Baise-Moi (which can be translated as "Kiss Me", if you like...anyone?) isn't very well transmitted. It's a sort-of ironic subversion of movie sexism - "look, women can be sick and wrong to men just as easily, look, look, LOOK, DAMN YOU, LOOK!" - and, okay, I get that. But 77 minutes of mindless violence and horrifying sexual shenanegins? The message is so badly blunted by the delivery that Marc D might somehow be right after all, and the whole "subversion" thing was tacked on to justify a rather horrid gore\porn film. Except, except, it was a book first. Apparently. If you can imagine such a thing. Watch Irreversible instead.
Avatar C. gave it a 5:
Marc D you must be such an idiot American. About the film I prefer no opinion, but I just had to reply to some over reacting racist low-life piece of dumb ass american you are. o BTW: it is even forbidden by the french, so quit the government funded part. According to the title, you probably just expected some porn and are now disappointed because it turned out to be a movie with a message too complex for you brain. Sorry for that.
Jack D. gave it a 1:
Pretentious and inept piece of trash, pointlessly shocking.
