Movie Reviews

rec.arts.movies.reviews - 9/10 by David N. ButterworthNo other filmmaker could have made "The Baby of Mâcon." And no other filmmaker would have wanted to.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Dennis SchwartzIt's unpleasant to view, but is not without many rewards if you can be open-minded and sit through its anti-religious views of the nativity.
User Review - 10/10 by Johanna MAmazes, delights, then makes you sick. I wish I'd made it.
User Review - 10/10 by Steve JStunning, amazing, magnificent, stupendous, revelatory... there is no word for how great this film actually is. Greenaway's best (which is saying something), and one of the most visually and thematically stunning films I've ever seen. Watch.
User Review - 10/10 by Aaron WHoly Crap! Peter Greenaway once again manages to explore areas of cinema that no one else dares to touch, making the audience question their own role. The action of this film takes place on a stage in front of an audience with whom we initially identify with, but as the film progresses we become less and less sure of who we are. A plot unfolds in which a young woman credits herself as the virgin birthmother of her brother in order to elevate her social position to be on par with Mary herself. Child exploitation, bull goring, murder, rape and dismemberment follow and all the while we sit complacent until a few extremely shocking scenes jolt us forward and Greenaway turns the tables on us and even on himself for indeed the creation of theater and film inspire a certain level of complacency. By the end, it's unclear what really happened, but your mind is boggled and your stomach is churned and all in all it was an amazing experience. Apparently this is the second part of a supposed trilogy, the first being Greenaway's stunning adaptation of "The Tempest" and the third being a still forthcoming film about horseracing or something. While these films share no common threads of plot, they are connected by an unparalleled visual style that combines cinema, painting, and theater. The casts are enormous, and the sets are some of the most impressive that I have ever seen. These are films that really deserve proper DVD releases immediately. Experimental films that don't kowtow to audience approval. Brilliance.
User Review - 10/10 by Kevin WMy absolute favorite movie of all time. If I could only ever watch one movie, over and over again, for the rest of my life, this would be it.
User Review - 10/10 by Petter KThe most incredible film I have ever seen - I would not recommend it to anyone, however everyone should watch it!
User Review - 10/10 by Sylvain Rchef d'oeuvre baroque, de l'art du film et de la peinture
User Review - 10/10 by DM KAn indescribably horrid-yet-beautiful religious farce: the perfect balance of offensiveness and great film-making.
User Review - 10/10 by Anthony Soutrageously and purposefully provocative. Bizarre, brilliant, horrifying.
