Leave your thoughts about The Skin I Live In.
| Birmingham PostGraham YoungAlmodóvar's round-the-houses, mid-film flashback might not feel as if it's working at the time, but the set-up for the denouement is quite extraordinary. |
| CineVueJoseph WalshThe Skin I Live In is a definite must-see, as all its elements harmoniously blend to create a cinematic masterpiece that stands out not just this year, but over the course of the past decade. |
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeIt will almost certainly be in the top two or three on my 'best of 2011' list, and it's a film I can't wait to see again. |
| St. Paul Pioneer PressChris HewittAlmodovar shoots himself in the foot with a too-tricky structure, resetting "Skin" with a new set of characters at about the halfway point. |
| Boston PhoenixSheila JohnstonIt's a pleasure to see the director back with his male muse, the star of his radical early films, for the first time in more than 20 years. |
| St. Paul Pioneer PressChris Hewitt (St. Paul)Almodovar shoots himself in the foot with a too-tricky structure, resetting "Skin" with a new set of characters at about the halfway point. |
| eFilmCritic.comPeter SobczynskiDark, demented and oddly tender at its admittedly bleak center, "The Skin I Live In" is one of those films that viewers will either love or loathe in equal measure--I cannot imagine anyone coming away from something like with a "meh" reaction. |
| Village VoiceKarina LongworthThe film deflates in its final third, with crude matter-of-fact set pieces, dumb explanatory psychology, and bursts of intentional camp overwhelming and canceling out the unmoored creepiness. |
| BET.comClay CaneAlmodovar ups the sicko factor with arguably one of the best plot twists in the past ten years of movie-making. |
| Minneapolis Star TribuneColin CovertTime and again this mad masterwork has you thinking, "Oh, no, they wouldn't dare go there." And then it goes several steps further. |
