    The biographical story of Alfred Kinsey, the trail blazing scientist who, in 1948, shocked the world with his sensational book "Sexual Behavior in the Human Male". The film recounts his extraordinary journey from obscurity to notoriety with graphic detail.

    It's hard to overstate...( read more) Kinsey's impact on American culture. While I agree that his contributions are beyond significant and that his is a story worth telling, I still have far too many inhibitions to be objective in my review of this explicit and controversial movie. Kinsey the film, much like Kinsey the man, is sometimes disturbing but always interesting.

    There?s some great acting in this film, Neeson, Cartwright & Sarsgaard are all very good. Watch out for William Sadler?s part though. I?ve never felt so uneasy watching a film, it makes me shudder just thinking about it!

    Depicting the true life events of Alfred Kinsey and his famously publicised sex studies that would cause much debate across America during the 1940?s.

    Good parts played by Neeson, Linney and O?Donnell and thought in particular the make up envolving the aging of the characters ...( read more)were done particularly well.

    A tale with perhaps an underlying moral, that was quite a controversial story of it?s time.

    Interesting performance from Mr. "Skeels" Neeson. Started off a bit slow but picked up nicely about halfway through. Also liked the ending. Screenplay was pretty solid, and Lithgow's performance as the stoic father was nice. What what?!

    This biopic tells the story of Alfred Kinsey who revolutionized people's views on human sexuality with his surveys and books. The film follows his studies and his personal life quite closely but not without a certain neutral distance. The cast is full of great names, all deliveri...( read more)ng excellent performances in a script full of humor and humanity. Entertaining and interesting even for people not familiar with his work, in short: just the way a biography should be like.

    This movie require a very particular type of taste. Yet, if you give it a chance, you might end up liking it like I did.

    this was an interesting film, it contained alot of theories, some of which i do not agree with. but this film was exciting as the topic was something that was never spoken of or seen sinful in this time.
    the acting in this film was brilliant. and it showed how obsession can ruin...( read more) a life.
    i think i will need to watch it again how ever to understand it fully!

    Interesting Biopic. Mr. Kinsey was very passionate about his research. What he did was educate, and it definately was something that needed to be done! Kinsey took on a subject that for his family, and apparently for the times was controversial. Funny, seems in the comments i...( read more)t's still "too much" for some. Sex is a subject I am very comfortable with, so it was interesting to see how completely naive people used to be.
