It?s just Sex and violence. It pushes the boundaries of censorship but at the end of the day, if you want porn, get a porn film and if you want violence, get Natural Born Killers. This isn't worth it!
Graphically hardcore. The story of two young women who go on a cross-country crime spree. Makes Thelma and Louise look like a lighthearted Disney movie.
ome films are made to just be provocative. Add some sex sequences and some violence and you get a wave of anger and insult in response of what the director wanted to point out. Baise Moi is a masterpiece which should be seen by consentant adults ready to face reality and who want...( read more)
This is a film that deals with the ideas of losing one's humanity, our views on sex and violence, and the obliteration of the soul. Nadine and Manu have been so harmed by the world that they become monsters, killing with blind rage. They are the epitome of random violence. Thinki...( read more)
Take 'Thelma and Louise' mix it with 'Natural Born Killers' and throw in porn and there you have this rather odd, violent French film.
Its not awful but it's far too anarchic to be engaging.
After being raped, two women go on a cross country murder spree.
This movie was infamous for it's hardcore sex scenes which ended up getting it banned in certain countries (I believe). The sex scenes show penetration but the acting, script and basically everything about this mov...( read more)
Too much violence. Sex, rape, killing. Director is also a female. What a dream ?????? when we are escaping busters' world.
I cannot call this is French Cinema.
Hehe, I love how so many people seem to be offended by this film. Yes, it's another great pair-on-the-run film. This film doesn't want to compromise. Neither does it explain the motives and reasons for some of their actions. It also has some empathy towards the women, despite wha...( read more)
Violent, disturbing, graphic and erotic. Very cruel and merciless. Didn't like it. Strong stomach and a somewhat sick mind required.
39/100
An exploitation movie reduced to its grindhouse essence. full review
The result is like something you'd see momentarily unscrambled on a hotel television set, but with better music and a little more of a story line. full review
As Despentes lets the brutality overwhelm the relationship between the women, the film loses its core, and the shock loses its value. full review
im 16 and i watched this when i was 15 ne1 els seen this film wen they were this age holla
Did anybody else just outright hate this movie?
If it didn't have hardcore sex in it (and there's only snippets of it) then nobody would ever have even heard of it. Rightly so too. It's a piece of junk. A poor man's Thelma And Louise with badly shot porn edited in.
Even the sex was rubbish. The characters were so goddamn irritating that all I wanted them to do was die. It's a pointless bunch of attention-seeking, amatuerish nonsense.
