Margo M Any movie that tries to back a sexual assault with "good intentions" by its protagonist is a hard pass for me... Personally. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/14/23 Full Review This movie is terrible. I want go back to before l saw this. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/08/23 Full Review Cinna B An absolutely terrible movie. Poorly written characters, a plot that progresses agonizingly slow in the first half but then desperately rushes to shoehorn in a bunch of different plot points in the second half, a main character that violated a teenage girl in order to "fix" her... This is abhorrent. It's so boring, and the few scenes that actually catch your attention are unnecessary or do not make sense in reference to the rest of the storyline at all. Watching this movie was a nauseating experience. If you're thinking about watching it, don't. This is not worth your time. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/30/23 Full Review Kotak The film has a strong concept that I believe falls short in it's execution. The plot felt strangely segmented into different arcs that didn't really tie into eachother, though I believe this is due to the film being an adaptation of a manga. Homunculus felt more like a shock film than a true horror film, especially with the schoolgirl scene. I found myself hardly able to watch through it, or even understand how or why this helped her. To me, it felt like an unnecessary scene of a grotesque and gruesome depiction of sexual assault rather than a pivotal point of the story. Overall, I don't think the film was inherently bad, but I believe it could've been executed far better, hence the 2.5/5 rating Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/08/23 Full Review Heidi L Right smack in the movie is a sexual assault and I can't for the life of me understand how the protagonist is thought to be doing this in order to save the victim. It's sickening. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/04/23 Full Review Audience Member As someone who didn't read the manga, I really liked this movie. The plot was solid, cinematography perfectly captured the mood ( minus the SFX), and acting held up. My only gripe would be the devolpment in some of the characters was a little shady, with the main character doing some bad stuff with it being presented positively.
