Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
DianaIsAnAmericanLady "Baise Moi" or "Fu.k Me" In English Is one of the worst pornographic French movies I have ever seen.2 real porno stars and horny female whores act in this crappy movie.The script and acting is totally disastrous.Those dirty porno whores don't know how to act,but they know how to sexually arouse men by blowing them and getting unlimited oral and anal pleasure.For porno fans I advise them to rent or buy an adult DVD and not waste their time and money in seeing a disgusting porno French movie that deserves to receive many awards for Worst porno movie,worst direction and worst acting.I am not surprised why the majority of movie fans and critics abhorred "Baise Moi". Even individuals who are addicted to pornography and sex will not enjoy this trash French porno movie.
jason-carney1-575-522883 It's a low budget movie and at first seems rubbish, which I suspect has meant many people gave up too early and underrated it. As the film develops the cheapness of the production only reinforces the harsh, unglamorous lives of the characters portrayed so don't be put off in the first few minutes as it really warms up! There is a degree of misandry in the casual violence inflicted against various men. However, I found myself cheering these acts on and rooting for the girls. The portrayal of sex is unusually explicit and I found this refreshing, far tamer than actual porn but still real(it helps to know the 2 main characters were transitioning from actual careers in porn!). It was refreshing also because the film was written by women and so women were not the victims of violence but revelled in being instigators. There was a definite edge to the disassociative personalities of the 2 women, who offered little reaction to their killings other than joy and I found this a good portrayal of sociopathy. The women did have redeeming features and some level of justification for their heinous acts. It was certainly a window on evil, but why should that always be about evil men? This caught me by surprise and I highly recommend this movie if you like sex and violence. If you have disdain for the likes of Rambo forget it!
orza1995 Baise-Moi follows the story of Nadine (played by Karen Lancaume) and Manu (Raffaëla Anderson) who are gang raped by a group of men, this vicious act is the catalyst for a full fledged femme- fatel revenge trip of sex and violence.Baise-Moi is one of the most sexually explicit film to come out since Deep Throat, the film contains sexual activates all involve actual sexual intercourse being shown. The sex in the film is placed to create a cutting edge feel to the film and to try to create a film that is "real". fans of John Waters early movies such as Pink Flamingos will feel a particular nostalgia and may even see this film as it truly should be seen as a transgressive cult film that has its tongue firmly in- check (pun intended).However on a technical level the film is severely flawed the cinematographic is simple and bland ,however this adds to the raw and brutal land scape the film creates. Other amateurish parts of the film include the some of the effects in respects to the action orientated sequences of the film ,where the actresses who are surprisingly very competent barring mind they have only acted in hard core pornography, come across as clunky and badly directed. This may lead to people coming away disappointed with the film and carry around the notion of emptiness and that the film is one dimensional. In regards to the acting the cast does a suppressing convincing job, especially the two main leads who portray these cold but loving women who enjoy killing and shagging there way thought France. This add to the notion that Baise-Moi has more of a parallel existences with John Waters band of misfits, most notably Divine. The violence is shot with no style and bring to mind the latter works of lucio Fluci, in terms of the technical side this proves that the tow directors are not the most artistically driven in terms of having an atheistically pleasing film. However on the other hand the film verity approach does add to interesting themes of the world falling apart, however the films overall action does make theses theme slightly frivolous in there overall impact and by the end of the film they have completely fallen out. Overall the film is flawed in respects of the technical accomplishment, but still manages to create an unforgettable film, that has hit the nail on the head in terms of pressing the right buttons and using the gimmick of real sex and saving itself from being a middle of the road copy of Thelma & Louise
JoshuaDysart Everyone who defends this (needlessly) controversial film likes to say that it's absolutely, definitely not porn. They say this because "the film is not meant for masturbation" or some other legally defining excuse. Even the filmmakers have cried out, "This is not porn!" in their own defense.But the thing is… this movie is totally porn. It gleefully fetishisizes violence, rape, drug use, lesbianism, domestic abuse, sodomy, robbery, gambling, blow jobs, punk-music, revenge, menstruation, patriarchal oppression, suicide and your good old fashioned non-simulated sex. Most of the time the script feels like it's just ticking off boxes on some all inclusive list of kinks. And it's all done for the money shot, baby… every time. You know why it's porn? It's porn because it shows all of those things in detailed close ups… but it has nothing to say about any of them.Directed in a classic DIY style and squarely falling into the "New French Extremism" movement, it was made by two-women. One a former punk turned massage-parlour hostess and the other an ex-porn star. It features two other female porn actresses mass-murdering and fornicating (imdb won't let me use the word I want to use) across France, all in "trash" aesthetic video and shot in available light. It's a female power fantasy. An act of sexual reclamation that reverses the conversation on gender violence and it's created by actual sex-workers. So that, in and of itself, is interesting… the actual film, however, is tedious and artificial.At times the movie does seem to show a passing interest in addressing genuine gender-war rage, but that's all thoroughly lost in its own appetite for shock imagery and its desperate need to be offensive. I've read interviews where the filmmakers claim the movie speaks to all kinds of social injustices, from class separation to racism, and I suppose those ingredients are there in the mix, but in the end this movie is really only concerned with being more pornography in a porn saturated world.Although the fact that the movie has been banned in several countries, including France, suggests that it's just the sort of artistic exercise society needs. Sadly. So there's that.If you're into camp, actual on camera sex (Raffaela Anderson is pretty hot) and you don't mind a very intense rape scene (why is the sex so real and the violence so cartoonish in this movie?), I guess it's a pretty intriguing thing to watch.
