Nicolas J @RT04474315 Feb 5 All style, no substance. See more O g @RT76089177 Nov 28 Like Black Mirror for people who watch Love Island. Not a terrible effort but in the end it was a bit obvious as well as indulgent. Had some interesting scenes but overall confused and lacking direction. See more isla s @RT89656869 09/03/2022 This is ultimately a film about sexual violence in the age of social media influencers. It highlights the artificiality of such peoples public personas and what they may have to deal with but don't share with others . Its quite thought provoking and memorable. Its perhaps a little bleak but its not choc full of gory violence or similar, thankfully, though it won't appeal to many people for understandable reasons, so be aware of the main themes when/if deciding to watch this. I thought the main character was very well portrayed by Magdalena Kolesnik. I imagine there will be many films to come about such popular 'influencers' and what they may deal with as a result of their sudden/apparent rush to fame online. The plot takes some intriguing twists and it reminded me (if slightly) of Promising Young Woman about it, although I should say that the protagonist isn't expressly out for revenge as such. Its a film that ends, if anything, perhaps surprisingly quickly at the end but I'd say its a worthy watch, that didn't feel entirely (or overly) too over the top or exploitative, so yes I'd recommend this film.

Heartbreaking character study with some unexpectedly dark and sad themes, but leaving trace of hope in the end. Final scenes and the credit song - f-ing amazing.

W porządku aktorsko See more 10/01/2021 Sweat works with the art of empathy, the one with which director Magnus Von Horn and star Magdalena Kolesnik work and the empathy they get the viewer to feel about the central character, a woman who sees herself deshumanized by the public she works for, a public that donesn't allow her to feel lonely or to experiene human sensations.
