Reviews
Good movie but grossly overrated
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
A journey into America in the year 2019. A man in search of a lost love. A woman lost in desire for revenge. A country paralyzed by heat and lost in suspicion and paranoia. And a twenty-year-old diary that evokes memories and the yearning to waste yourself in destruction. A Thought of Ecstasy was a bit more mature than i expected it to be since the nudity and definitely the sex scenes felt more like porn and not fake sex scenes made only for Hollywood. The acting was pretty bad and the storyline was a mess and all over the place, definitely not recommending it.
It was intriguing. Yes, it is provocative, exploring sexuality, but it also makes you think and deal with it - deal with the complicated feeling. The story itself without the artistic extras is also interesting. Not a movie for everyone, I think one should be open to new ideas and opinions to like this movie. Then again, quoting my mother: "People are fine with watching people killed in movies with their kids, but when it comes to physical intimacy, they feel uncomfortable"Sadly it's true, yet it can be argued, that every sensible human knows that killing is not okay and maybe they feel that seeing sex or something along the same lines is too intimate for the TV? I don't know and I digress.If you want to experience something new, watch this movie :)If you won't make it until the end, that's fine, people have different levels for tolerating things. I myself am 17 and would say I'm rather innocent and it wasn't too much for me - while I was watching this next to my mother on a big screen, I was actually laughing, not feeling bad.I recommend it to everyone.
