not only that but when the screen is b&w bella is kind of “captive” in that house, and can’t rlly do what she wants which is leaving to explore the outside world. and then when the screen starts to have colors bella is ouside, free, exploring, curious and fascinated by the world. she was a prisoner in a way at first but then she’s free

Emma stone definitley had the performance of the year.

i fucking love how at 13:20 you can see a glimpse into each one of the guys personalities 😂 Bryce is digusted, Zuff is intrigued and Rob is shocked.

I was shocked at how much I loved this movie. It started off with, "WTF am I watching?" and ended up with me feeling absolutely inspired by Bella Baxter. The story was amazing, the sets/cinematography/costumes etc fantastical, and the acting tremendous. Such an original and excellent film.

Rob looked mortified through most of it

Emma Stone took home her second Oscar for Best Actress and the film won for Best Makeup, Best Production Design and Best Costume Design.

This movie was an adventure start to finish. Loved all the wonderfully weird characters and visuals. You three cringing on and off throughout gave me the giggles. 😂 14:16 Rob & Bryce simultaneously realize what's happening. 😂 Also, to elaborate on what Rob said, Alfie was going to have FGM (female gen*tal mutilation) performed on Bella, which was a cruel practice done to control women, essentially making s*x for them anywhere from utterly unsatisfying to horribly painful.

I think people stuck on the baby brain are missing the major metaphor the movie works on. It doesn’t make sense if you take it literally, also in a world of duck dogs there a lot of belief suspension 😂

Really well said! It was a tough sell for several people in my life, impossible in fact, to convince them to watch this to because of that part of the premise. Meanwhile I did get my mom to watch it, and she's pretty resistant to fantasy/Sci fi settings... and she just won't stop raving about how brilliant this film is. How apt the metaphors are. If you give yourself over to it and can ever open yourself to the ideas in this, it's really something special.

@jeffblue19onTwitterthat’s literally the point. Men make bad judgements and decisions that affect women’s growth, development, and health all the time. Bella even comes to realize this at the end when she returns to find that Max and God have created a second creature. The movie is full of points like this, and yes, it’s supposed to be awful and horrifying. That’s partly what the filmmakers were trying to say.

@jasminewilliams1673

3 ай бұрын

@jeffblue19onTwitter it’s distasteful of course, but I immediately recognized it as men loving the infantilization of women and her growth as women’s agency. The metaphors do the heavy lifting. I greatly agree with the criticisms of over sexualization. Also none of the things Bella did were realistic for a baby, more like an adult relearning speech or to walk again post trauma. But I understand if people can’t see through the trope.

I think they're also missing the part where the movie made that choice deliberately to say something about men who prey on women who are more vulnerable (whether they be young or not)

Yorgos Lanthimos puts out the most absurd but interesting movies. You don’t have to react to these on the channel but if you liked Poor Things i would recommend watching his other works like The Lobster, Killing of a Sacred Deer and The Favourite

They just repeated what he said

She doesn’t have a “baby brain”. When she starts touching herself is because she reached puberty. You can see her growth process by the way she dresses and talks more appropriately also by the length of her hair. The idea of the movie is that this woman committed suicide but when God changed her brain she rediscovers the world all over again and falls in love with it, by the end she’s not afraid anymore because she knows she has control of her life.

That's like a twenty minute sex scene for no reason and my parents and I just glanced at each other like "yeah".... haha! Cannot recommend the movie, besides the pointless exploitative sex scenes, it was just not that good a movie.

I am addicted to watching POOR THINGS reactions 🤣 It's almost more fun than watching it the first time. Yorgos Lanthimos' previous film, THE FAVOURITE is also amazing and less sexually explicit

Been waiting for this one I really liked this movie i get the concept can be off putting but I thought the performances we’re outstanding from all Emma transforms through the film she deserved that Oscar imo but it’s mark ruffalo who was the surprise for me so hilarious he was my best supporting actor pick for the Oscar great reaction as always guys

not only are you guys my favourite reaction channel, but you're the only channel to react to my favourite movie of 2023

Yoo, I was going to the movies alone without having watched the trailer or anything, but then my mom was like "hey, why don't we make this a family trip?" and I ended up in a movie theatre with MY MOM, STEPDAD AND STEPBROTHER.... Awkward doesn't begin to cover it.

OMGGG I’m so happy you guys decided to react to this movie I enjoy your reactions they’re always so fun

Who else caught the Princess bride reference from Rob😂 “MaRRIage!”

I never would have thought you would watch this, especially because of the editing for your channel must have been mad! I love this film. I wish Mark would have won the Oscar for Supporting Actor, but RDJ was due as well.

Emma's brilliant performance aside. Mark was the next best performance out of the cast. It sucks that he lost the award to RDJ who, played himself in Oppenhiemer.

“It was obvious. I took the infants brain out and put it in the body of a full grown woman .” So nonchalantly 😂😂😂😂

I also was hopeful she was going to put Godwin's brain into that imbicile. Lol.

Just commenting before watching you watch this…you’re not readyyyy 😂😂😂

“he didn’t kidnap her she wanted to go”- she has the brain of a very small child 🫥

Zuff’s monologue on night lights and monsters was probably my favorite part of this video

Didn’t watch the trailer and went to see it blind with a friend in theaters, one of the biggest movie surprises I’ve ever had. I enjoyed it but h*rny Frankenstein (what my friend and I call it when talking about the movie) was definitely a movie that amazed and disgusted me at the same time. I defiantly didn’t know how to feel after.

Thanks to Bryce, Rob and Zuff! 👶➡👩 I love this one. I hope you'll see other titles by director Yorgos Lanthimos. The first I ever saw of his is THE LOBSTER (2015). I loved it... and have loved everything of his I've seen since. They're all unusual... not *as* unusual as this one, though.

i went to the theater watching this with friends and i didn‘t know a thing about it. I was a bit traumatized (not really but you know what i mean) but what impressed me a lot was the picture design, sceneries and the sky. i loved it

This was such a good movie idc what anyone says lol

Good day for Bella Baxter

I saw this on my bday last month my best friend and I went in blind and we were seriously contemplating walking out everyone in our theater we’re traumatized from what we witnessed

Same here.

Poor Things is a good movie---that I don’t disagree with. But it might have done with some writing improvements. There's a reason it swept the Oscars' visual categories. The stunning quasi-technicolor visuals, quirky fisheye angles (though I agree with Rob that those were crazy in some places lol)---the aesthetic in general was really cool and I enjoyed it. Some hating people say it overly focuses on style over substance, but I don't find that true either; imo it's actually layered in its character work. For example, I agree with Bryce about God becoming kinda likable by the end because his initial portrayal as this cold, scientific man ("she's an experiment" etc...) is slowly explained (glimpses into his childhood abuse at the hands of his scientist father who seemingly considered him a specimen before he was a son) and subverted (him letting Bella go even when McCandles is still hesitant) in a subtle and consistent way. It's no "Taxi Driver" or whatever but its character work holds up, methinks. But I just think the central plot line---exploring the awakening and reclamation of women's sexuality as analogous to a child's development---is too outlandish and creepy for most people to swallow... and rightfully so. I've racked my brain for possible improvements. Best I can come up with is having the brain be an alien's rather than a literal baby. Then we still get the novelty of an uninitiated brain exploring a new world without the bizarre/creepy feelings. I guess the issue with that is it's not captivating enough. IDK, I just think I've seen the most obtuse, copium takes ('if you're weirded out by the baby-brained-protagonist having sex every 2 seconds you're not imaginative enough to appreciate/understand it" and things like this) from people who (like me) wanna like the film or at least recognize what it's trying to do but can't square that up with the clearly weird premise. I think it's fine to be honest and say it was uncomfortable. Maybe that was the point. Anyway, Yorgos is developing a cool catalogue and is probably someone to watch out for in the coming years, but I'll be side-eyeing him if he ever puts out something this crazy again, lmao. Loved you guys' reaction as usual!

@not_llike_that

3 ай бұрын

I think you are completely missing the point of why it had to be a baby’s brain. The fact that it’s damn creepy is exactly the point. I also completely disagree that the movie is about “awakening and reclaiming woman’s sexuality”. I see this as a movie about a woman trying to explore a world without a background of following society’s rules. She wasn’t raised to be a woman in those times, she was raised as a human experiment, so she does what she wants and ignores the prejudices of what she is ‘supposed’ to do. And yes, that INCLUDES sexuality, but it’s not only about it. She feels like an equal to everyone so she asserts herself the same way making others play by those rules too. For example Mark Ruffalo’s character expected her to be all sad and weepy that he was using her for her body, but not only she wasn’t sad about it, she was also having fun and using him for his body back. That unexpected reaction to his actions was what made him fall in love with her Her being a baby was supposed to make you uncomfortable and more sympathetic towards her as she was constantly used and constrained by the men around her. People kept deceiving her, and as a child, she couldn’t know any better. Like that man who wanted to find out on which side her skin was “softer” as an excuse to touch her body in intimate places. If you don’t find that rightfully disgusting, I don’t know what to tell you. Not a single sex scene of this movie was there for funsies and didn’t serve SOME purpose. When the movie didn’t need for sex scenes (on the ship for instance), they were not there

(dad too but he's not a kid so wouldn't have had to worry about him😂)

I love the dance scene. I saw an interview where the director said that Emma is a very good dancer so it was hard for her but it was easy for Mark as he is a bad dancer.

You don't mention it so I'm not sure if you know, but this movie is based on a book by the Scottish writer Alasdair Gray, so that's a Scottish accent Dafoe is doing, even though the setting has been supposedly moved from Glasgow to London. The story in film and book is broadly the same, but the weird steampunk atmosphere is unique to the movie and the book has an extra element that is not in the film. It's definitely worth reading.

Guys... I saw this in the cinema with my mother.
