Marco L (CASTELLANO) Hay películas que te dejan sin saber muy bien qué acabas de ver, y The Perfection es una de ellas. Empieza como un drama elegante sobre dos prodigios del violonchelo y, sin previo aviso, se convierte en un festival de giros, sangre y locura. Shepard mezcla géneros como si no existieran reglas: pasa del suspense psicológico al body horror, de la sátira al puro delirio, y lo hace con una seguridad casi insolente. Logan Browning y Allison Williams están brillantes, sobre todo en cómo cambian el tono de sus personajes sin perder credibilidad. Hay momentos tan absurdos que rozan lo cómico, pero justo ahí está la gracia: la película sabe lo que es y juega con el espectador como si fuera parte del experimento. Si pestañeas, te pierdes algo… aunque no pasa nada, porque enseguida te lo vuelve a mostrar desde otro ángulo. Sí, es explícita y, por momentos, desagradable. Pero también es hipnótica, visualmente potente y con una energía que no se encuentra todos los días. Shepard filma el exceso con gusto y convierte lo grotesco en algo casi sofisticado. Es un viaje sin frenos, impredecible y provocador. The Perfection no busca convencer a todo el mundo; busca que te sientas incómodo, que reacciones, que no te quedes indiferente. Y lo consigue. No es perfecta, pero es imposible dejar de mirarla. (ENGLISH) Some movies leave you wondering what you just watched, and The Perfection is definitely one of them. It starts as an elegant drama about two cello prodigies and, without warning, turns into a wild mix of twists, blood, and madness. Shepard blends genres as if there were no rules — jumping from psychological suspense to body horror, from satire to pure delirium — and he does it with almost insolent confidence. Logan Browning and Allison Williams are both excellent, especially in the way they shift tone without ever losing credibility. There are moments so absurd they almost become funny, but that’s exactly the point: the movie knows what it is and plays with the audience like part of the experiment. Blink, and you’ll miss something… but don’t worry, it’ll rewind and show it again from another angle. Yes, it’s explicit and, at times, disturbing. But it’s also hypnotic, visually powerful, and full of energy you don’t often find. Shepard films excess with taste and turns the grotesque into something almost refined. It’s a ride without brakes — unpredictable, provocative, and impossible to look away from. The Perfection doesn’t try to please everyone; it wants you to feel uneasy, to react, to think. And it succeeds. Not perfect, maybe, but absolutely fascinating. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/23/25 Full Review Estefania O The Perfection is a twisted, elegant nightmare that plays the cello with your nerves until the strings snap. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/19/25 Full Review Natasha R This movie gets dark – REALLY dark. There were parts that I really loved and parts that made me incredibly uncomfortable. The beginning of this movie is so interesting, it pulled me in and I had no idea how it was going to spit me out. Unfortunately, the ending did ruin the movie for me. Trigger warnings: Sexual assault and extreme mutilation. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/16/25 Full Review John A. One of the best films I’ve ever seen. This is my jam. What a tight thriller with twists and turns you don’t see coming. Hip, stylish and intense while also being thoughtful. Fast paced without skipping a beat, not a single minute is wasted. One of those films that showcases the depths of human depravity, but somehow in a very bright and flashy way. I also love how it uses gore very sparingly and only shows the violence you need to see. The ending also doesn’t disappoint, it is gripping until the very last, satisfying shot. This one won’t leave your mind anytime soon after watching, in a good way. The Perfection IS perfection. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/06/25 Full Review Devin A Right away, this film provides a cringey dialogue and the dynamic between the 2 leads seems forced. The story telling and acting just falls so flat. So bad, annoyed I even finished it Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/21/25 Full Review Anh H. Absolutely loved this film! A must watch!
