    ★★

    A shallow, cringe and overly scatological critique of beauty standards.

    Very disagreeable without a solid message to convey, watching this movie feels like looking a the juxtaposition of a theratoma and one of those sexist 90s EDM clips.

    I honestly felt like if I weren't in the educated audience this targets, the meaning coud very well have been taken as the opposite —so unclever was its presentation. Great filmography, though only used to enhance the disagreeableness.

    As satire, it isn’t…

    I can't really put in words the level of human expression brought up in here, all mixed up with great filmography and basically a class of great direction.

    Best line I can pull off: this one is like talking to one of those people who think they're intelligent and witty and even managed to gather some support, but they end up being full of sh*t.

    It's an interesting essay about isolation and the human nature but it's executed way too poorly IMO. A lot of empty references... an unclear storyline... ill-defined characters with whom you won't connect... a... very... dragged progression, to say the least. The filmography is great, though.
