This one stays with you after you watched it. And the score is perfect...
Easily the best movie of the decade.
>And the score is perfect...
EEEEEEEE SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK REEDLE DEEDLE DEEDLE
Yes, such a beautiful and haunting score.
It's a good movie, why would you care about some redundant award.
Great things:
>The underwater skin scene
>Beach scene
>Scenes that were shot with hidden cam
But overall, the plot resolves around a meme tier idea.
>This one stays with you after you watched
Then I will never watch it. I've got enough of that shit from other movies banging around in my head and all it does is cause me to be depressed.
>tfw you will never see a book adaption
name the ones that stayed with you, then, because i want to see them.
...perfect for the movie, that is. Imagine a regular, melodic/symphonic score, I doubt it would work as well.
Imagine a synthwave score and the movie becomes ten times better.
Its a great movie but i cant understand Scots for shit and i live in the north of england
Schindler's List
The Pianist
Jacob the Liar
Armageddon
I don't know, the dissonant, industrial feel of the score just goes well with themes of the film
>schindler's list made me depressed
back to Sup Forums now with political bs like this
it is a depressing film, no way around it.
Nine Inch Nails is much better industrial music than whoever did this soundtrack.
disingenuous post
ScarJos kino titties
this movie and that one that involved spiders or some shit were both trash
ScarJo actually looked pretty fat in this movie so I'm surprised they showed her naked, not that I mind a larger woman.
The score was great
Mica Levi deserves all the praise for it
She has an incredible ass in this movie.
Im gonna rewatch LiT tonight.
>getting depressed about science fiction movies
>drowning 5 meters away from the beach
Women are so goddamn useless.
What do you mean tonight? It's 3 AM.
probably because its scottish, and Oscars are an American award
He's from the future.
Because this totally stopped The King's Speech from winning best picture.
The film is absolutely shit. There's no story, nothing is explained, just a bunch of things happen to someone who is barely acting. The only people who think it is good are those who either read the book so they already know the story, or those who watched it, became confused, then went online to have people who read the book explain what the fuck just happened.
There isn't much to the film really. I liked it but hardly oscar level
Might as well give an oscar to lifeforce or species too
Summer is this way
Here are the reasons why Under The Skin did not win an Oscar:
- It does not have a black and white musical number that pays homage to the golden age of Hollywood
- It does not tell an uplifting story about characters developing through 20th century American history
- It does not provide a rose tinted view of improvements in race relations over the aforesaid period of american history
- There are no Jews in it
People who read the book didn't like this movie because it was an absolute shit adaptation of the book.
>- There are no Jews in it
Uh, ScarJo? You're kidding, right?
how can anybody be that much of a brainlet? the movie is pretty unambiguous... do retards like you need everything to spelled out for them?
The book is vastly different from the movie. They just retained some basic concepts
I'd be interested to see your overview of the plot for the movie
t. brainlet
Hunter begins to feel empathy for her prey, tries to to live like her prey and ultimately is hunted down and killed by her prey.
she starts as a predator but slowly learns to be more human, but since you see the story from her point of view, the humans also start as the victims but slowly become her predators
I don't know precisely what point the movie is trying to make, but it's pretty easy
ayyyy my lad
You don't know that she's a predator, you don't know what's going on. She just does things while being stalked by someone on a motorbike, who you also never learn anything about. She also doesn't get hunted at the end, she walks into a forest and randomly gets killed by a random person for no reason
>You don't know that she's a predator,
You see her hunting for men, who she leads back to her house and sucks out of their skin.
>me reading your post
Nah. You see her not looking like she knows what she's doing, looking like she's completely fed up or even scared, while leading them back to some place where 'something' happens that you don't ever find out about. Certainly not a predator, more like someone being controller or forced into leading people back. Perhaps being forced by the motorbike man? We don't know because you don't know who or what he was, what he was doing, who she was, what she was doing, why she was doing it, why she got killed, or even what she was. Things just happened with no plot, no progression and no payoff
The motorcycle guy is obviously a fellow alien because he hangs out with her while she's doing alien stuff.
Where you com from do women cruise the streets in white vans looking to pick up men?
Wow it's almost as if some movies let you speculate about what's going on instead of spoonfeeding you all the answers.
you don't know who or what they were or what relationship they had. you don't even know they're alien, you only know that because it says so in the book
I'm told this happens all the time in Middle America, where Trump voters live.
No, you know that because at the end of the movie her skin is ripped off, revealing the skin of an alien.
D-Do they look like Scarlett Johansson?
No. All beautiful women come from the coastal states, where liberals live.
>best movie of-
*blocks your path*
you don't know she's an alien. it looks like another normal human woman with black body paint. maybe it was scarlett johansson in black paint wearing a scarlett johansson suit. maybe it was a demon. a drow. some undiscovered group of people who live underground. you chose alien because everyone told you she was an alien, as I said in my original post on this garbage film. nothing even hints at her being from another planet
Oh, so that's how she looks, under the skin.
How do you still not know aliens are real?
I see what u did there, see you in pol later.
The film is miles better than the book though
Maybe pay more attention when watching a movie, you missed the spaceship.
>nothing is explained
fucking millennial, go watch your superhero crap
>But overall, the plot resolves around a meme tier idea.
did you read the book?
No it's because the Oscars are crap! I can't believe you didn't come to this conclusion already!
>I'm gonna tear up the fucking dance floor dude, check me out
By your logic this shit is a superhero movie because a woman is somehow able to subdue and kill men with no trouble. Everyone knows women can never beat men in a fight.
What?
You know exactly what.
the absolute state of this pleb
don't go full autism man
Do you know who you're talking to? I'm from Sup Forums, bitch, and we're going to take you leftists down.
Cause sci-fi movies dont mather in Jewwood.
Gravity
The Martian
Arrival
All Oscar nominees.
Face it, UtS is just crap.
fuck no
Listen, just because fascist idiots have appropriated synthwave for the incredibly stupid shit known as "fashwave" doesn't make synthwave a bad genre. Synthwave is awesome.
Not really, no. The book actually explores some real life concepts, while the film is visually impressive but not much more.
Nice projection but "synthwave" is a bastardization grown out of cliche's that's losing its purveyor's to old age. Only held up by a menial knowledge of music theory and bank account large enough to buy the plugins to materialize the same bloated and contrived arrangements over and over and over again. It wishes it was Vaporwave, it wishes it were Boogie and it will never ever be New Wave.
It's adapted from a novel where aliens harvest and sell human guts as a delicacy, dipshit.
...
>drow
...
Exactly my point. You have to already know the story in order to get it, and that is why it's shit. You all watched the film and filled in the blanks online then came to conclusion the film was great. I am not so easily deceived.
I love Ex-Machina but is one step lower than UTS.
>You have to already know the story in order to get it.
No. The movie gives you every elementto figure it out by yourself.
Even if you don't get the meat part, you know that the humans are harvested for something, and this is all you need to know in that regard.
Jesus Christ you are the reason we have all that exposition in movies, you dumb fuck.
You get the alien thing from the beginning.
The rest is easy to figure it out by yourself.
You don't need more details because is about the character, not about how and why it happens.

how can anyone even pretend this isnt fucking amazing?
The book is shit vegan propaganda.
The movie is never so low.
Yep. I remember not being that engaged while watching it, but afterwards I couldn't get it out of my head.
