What we have here is a hard-core and sometimes condomed "Thelma and Louise" with a good dose of Russ Meyer's "Faster Pussycat Kill Kill" thrown in.

The mix of real sex and fake-looking violence in this 2000 French feature is curiously unprovocative.

Baise-Moi is like a cheapie, vintage American exploitation movie, only one that goes so far beyond the bounds of taste that its affrontiveness becomes in large part what the film is about.

Full Review | Original Score: C | Feb 24, 2002

Too ideologically earnest for the porn crowd and too hard-core for serious audiences.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Nov 30, 2001

I've seen 15-minute porno loops that display more tenderness toward the human condition than this nihilistic broadside.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Jul 30, 2001

Like an eager kid trying too hard to be noticed, it ends up just being tiresome.

| Jul 20, 2001

As art, it is all badly done.

| Jul 20, 2001

A caterwauling punk anthem on film, a vengeful fantasia served up with digital rawness.

| Original Score: B- | Jul 16, 2001

Didactic, clumsily directed and abysmally acted.

| Jul 13, 2001

More of a bluff.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jul 13, 2001

In railing against the exploitation of women, the movie is itself quite often exploitative.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 12, 2001

A fast-moving shocker, but it's a dull shocker, so morally dead that it deadens you to watch it.

Full Review | Jul 12, 2001

Lacks the sophistication, wit and style needed to lift it to a higher level.

Full Review | Jul 12, 2001

An exploitation movie reduced to its grindhouse essence.

Full Review | Jul 6, 2001

A crude piece of work, unfocused, slackly structured and rambling.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 6, 2001

The result is like something you'd see momentarily unscrambled on a hotel television set, but with better music and a little more of a story line.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 5, 2001

Too pleased with the debased romanticism of its slapdash self to outrage a shock-primed audience.

Full Review | Jul 3, 2001

Baise-moi is the kind of film that Ferrara would have made during the 70s, when Times Square was something more than a Disney theme park.
