Audience Member Great movie! Another Canadian Classic! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Excellent character piece of a insecure and depressed woman trying to boost her self-esteem by getting a tattoo. However, over time the tattoo develops a voice of its own and starts influencing her down a very dark path. The acting is really good, especially the lady who plays Koffie. The other supporting actors were hit and miss depending on their scene. This story is very sad but relatable; her descent into madness was very well done. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member This film is really strange and demented in a Black Swan kind of way. Really well executed in my opinion. The main girl reminds me of a distressed Lena Dunham. The acting was well done. The entire time I kept thinking "what a b*tch this tattoo personality is." You'd think an imaginary friend would be nice...but no. Ironic title considering her tattoo's personality was constantly bossing her around and putting her down all the time....not so comforting. I highly recommend to anyone who enjoys a good slow burning psychological thriller. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Never even got halfway through the movie, fast forward to the end to see what happened. For a movie who has a main character named Coffee, this is so weird Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member This film takes itself way too seriously. It has such a silly premise, some humor would have been nice, but instead you get a really dark and depressing story of a woman in a downward spiral Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member It had potential and a nice tone of music but the movie sucks. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Read all reviews
