The Skin I Live In
Cody Villafana
“An unsettling look into the mind and motives of a mentally-battered plastic surgeon.”
“An unsettling look into the mind and motives of a mentally-battered plastic surgeon.”
“Relentless with its unsettling tone, which is always at a feverish level.”
“The sense of dread director/writer Jeff Nichols delivers in only his second film is suffocating.”
“Has it’s moments with a solid cast, but is still a poor man’s version of ‘Ocean’s 11.'”
“Adds a fresh sneakiness and one of the creepiest, most creative set pieces in the trilogy.”
“Unimaginative…the slick, computer-generated effects are no improvement on the grisly classic.”
“Stripping away the insulating layer of cheese of the original exposes this updated film’s flaws.”
“Separates itself from an often-unimaginative genre with powerhouse performances.”
“Director Marc Forster never elevates the material to the realm of believability.”
“Feels so calculated, even the names of the lead characters sound like they were overanalyzed.”
“The humor might not connect consistently, but the cancer comedy is a minor triumph.”
“Farmiga’s first go-around as director doesn’t translate to a narrative with purpose.”
