I got the privilege to see bones and all last night at the Venice film festival.
Before going in, I got to the the entire cast walk downtown the red carpet so I was definitely pumped and excited to see it.
I will add no spoiler but mostly I will describe the rollercoaster of feeling I got throughout the movie.
Throughout the entire movie the direction manages to visually captivate the audience the whole time. I did not take my eyes from the screen. He captures the north east states of USA beautifully while in the summer . The movie takes place in the late 80s and therefore expect some 80s tracks which makes the movie feel a bit retro and indie in some parts.
Now, turning the corner page, the other wave of emotions are definitely some you don't experience on a daily basis.
The movie handles a very delicate topic which is cannibalism from the deep subconscious and takes you through the hurdles these people with this condition go through.
It is very hard to feel sorry for the characters and their situation given most of the time you will feel shocked and a bit or a lot grossed out by some of the gruesome scenes.
Once you relax and if you manage ( which is not easy after the first cannibals episode 14 mins in) you can actually start focus more on the physiological side of the movie and less on the cannibal attacks.
Overall, if you manage to not care about some really disturbing scenes the movie can be a interesting piece of work exploring this condition.
Definitely don't take your gramma or mom to see this movie and I recommend perhaps leaving the popcorn on the floor.
