"Disappointing"

Purchased on Mighty Ape

The story has very little relevance to the novel that supposedly inspired it. I was expecting it be a bit different, as the book covers more than a movie ever could , but so much was removed I found it uninspiring.

Description

Under the Skin is a 2013 British-American science fiction art film on DVD, directed by Jonathan Glazer and starring Scarlett Johansson.

Johansson plays an alien on earth, disguised as the perfect aesthetic form of a mesmerizing woman. She scours remote highways and desolate scenery looking to use her greatest weapon to snare human prey – her voracious sexuality. She is deadly efficient, but over time becomes drawn to and changed by the complexity of life on earth. With this new found humanity and weakening alien resolve, she finds herself on a collision course with her own kind. Taking her point of view throughout, the film presents a unique look at our world through alien eyes.

Under the Skin Movie Reviews

“Weird. Brilliant. Stunning. Under the Skin is by far the most memorable movie of the first few months of 2014.” Chicago Sun-Times

“Throughout, what truly matters to director Jonathan Glazer is articulating through visual and aural enticement the unconscious power of our death drive.” Slant Magazine

“A brave experiment in cinema that richly rewards the demands it makes. The result is an amazement, a film of beauty and shocking gravity.” Rolling Stones

“A direct descendant of Nicolas Roeg's classic "The Man Who Fell to Earth,” “Under the Skin” is the kind of movie people will be talking about, and dissecting and puzzling over, for years." Detroit News
