Disturbing, very disturbing but ... man ... what an awesome movie. One of a kind of script, I really wonder what Gaspar Noé the Writer and Director must have been smoking or tripping on while he was writing and directing this movie. A very straight forward story of one traumatic night unfolds in a reverse chronoligical manner. Basically you see the climax first and the movie rolls back to the first scene. Having said that and done that Gaspar Noé manages to keep you biting your nails wondering what next and how and why. Some of the scenes are very graphic but trust me ... it is those very graphic and traumatic scenes that gives depth to this movie and make it worth watching, worth remembering and singing all praise. The weird direction style and the unsteady camera work for the first 20 odd minutes creates a brilliant impact. I say standing ovation to Gaspar Noé for presenting us with one of a kind movie that no amount of words can do justice. +vely worth watching, you can not afford to miss such movies.

Had watched this one 6/8 months ago. Cannot say I liked it. But I loved the way the entire movie was shot. The movie does move in a haphazard way, one blink and you'll miss the entire link of the events happening in the movie. Monica is at her best. Her performance flawless.
