Poor Things. Watched it in the cinema and it was just disgusting, I don’t care how critically acclaimed it is.

What was disgusting about it? (I absolutely loved it)

A mix of half the movie being porn, the plot centering around a child in an adult woman’s body doing nothing but having sex, the overall message being “women having sex with everyone makes them grow as a person”.

Is it also possible that you missed the actual message? Does your username check out?

That was my thoughts too, by the time she gets to the brothel, I thought okay she’s going to get bored and move on with her story. But nope, she stays there for most of the movie. Like what was the message here?

My take on the movie was a lot about growing up and maturing.
If you notice the sky and general atmosphere of the movie becomes less fantastical as time goes on. Additionally the sex thing starts with her being taken of advantage, to her taking advantage of the second guy, and then to her using sex in the third arc, and by the end when the evil guy tries to force her to have sex she kills him. Additionally, through each of those progressions we also see her mature or learn more about the world.
Not saying it’s the best movie, but there were at least some themes and plot points going on.
