done a la Memento, i thought it was one of the most gruesome films i ever sat through, that is until i watched Ichi the Killer.
that movie ruined me, i feel as if i lost part of my humanity watching that movie, but i could not turn away.
getting back to Irreversible,
i thought it was a decent flick, definitely not for everyone.
quite hard to swallow. but i think it accomplished something other than what it intended to do, that which is to show how despicable rape is. It is all building up to that scene, you see. yes the intro scene in of itself was quite...out there, but that is just a taste of what is to come.
sadly most people just want to watch that scene for obvious reasons...
don't get me wrong, Monica Belluci is one beautiful girl, if anything she is my ideal woman. but not like that M8s. i felt sad for what they did to her, i cried a bit. How could you not want to help her, save her.
7/10
