Andreea Patru Vague Visages The film is more of a mood piece than a purely narrative feature, one that prefers to focus on the nuances of being different. Dec 6, 2023 Full Review Ben Turner The Pink Lens Anthropologically speaking Body Electric is an interesting piece of cinema, but for those who want to be told a story it doesn't quite deliver the goods. Rated: 3/5 Sep 2, 2021 Full Review Joe Lipsett Queer.Horror.Movies. ... it's nice to spend time with these characters, share their exuberance for life and laugh at their antics. They may be the same as when we met them, but we're better off for spending time with them. Feb 3, 2019 Full Review Alexander Ryll Gay Essential Forming a dreamlike film that flows organically and instinctively, Caetano does manage to create a truly unique ambience, overflown with serenity, love and voluptuousness. Rated: 7 Nov 3, 2018 Full Review Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall Without preaching at all, the film has a lot to say. Rated: 4/5 May 8, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Beautiful light and color throughout, even in scenes shot in very dark rooms or outside. A story that seems mundane at first but with a strong political and societal opinion. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Dreadful waste of time. No plot. Scenes with no purpose. Rambling, non-plot. What an appropriate platform to rate this movie as it is rotten Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
