Irreversible

9 Ratings: 3.2

Director: Gaspar Noe; Stars: Monica Bellucci, Vincent Cassel; Release Date: August 05, 2003

After what would normally be the end credits (which run backwards), IRREVERSIBLE begins with a heated hunt through a gay S&M club. It is a chaotic sequence shot from a wildly spiraling camera seamlessly edited together to appear as one single shot … see full wiki

It's OK to look away.

***1/2 out of **** Some of the best films tempt you to look away. French director Gaspar Noe has made a film which does indeed want you to look away, but only if you want to. It isn't forcing you to not watch; and then again it's not forcing you into sticking around. But if you can stick around, "Irreversible" is one of the most disturbing though-provoking films you may ever see; graphic in its depictions of violence and rape, but powerful in its ability to provoke.

Irreversible Damage

Perhaps one of the most shocking films I've seen in years, I'm having a difficult time placing a star rating on this review but let me give you some facts if nothing else. Monica Belluci is one of the most beautiful actresses in the business & I hated watching her gruesome rape scene (even though this isn't the most graphic scene in the film.)

Interesting yet disturubing and creative exploitive film

This movie is a very unusual and dark revenge story. It goes backwards. If you liked Memento, you'll like the use of reverse chronology in this movie.

Shocking Yes, But Well Worth the Effort, And Yes, Time Does Destroy All

Pros: Well scripted, well acted. Cons: Portions of the film are very dark. The Bottom Line: In the end I am glad I finally watched Irreversible because the story was well scripted, and the movie well acted. Plot Details: This opinion reveals minor details about the movie''s plot. Irreversible first came to my attention while reading the review for another movie. Now I have long been a fan of the beautiful, talented, and under-rated … more
