Review of Enemy (2014) by Timbertalk — 24 Jan 2015
Leave it to those French Existentialists to leave you with a huge tarantula vagina for no apparent reason in a closet, then say "See ya!" was it all just a dream? Was Sarah Gadon the sexy performer at the beginning? Was she a huge Spider? Are we supposed to look at the traits of a tarantula and see how they are like the human species? And the car scene with lovely and talented Melanie and Jakers is that to show yes, they are a volatile couple that would never work, so let's get them out of here, and le deux sensitives end of together but of course, it's tough to order up brunch and cuddle when what, there's always that evil sinister spider breathing down that neck of yours.
Will he be a partner, the neck..or the spider? Are spiders like women, in their soft but dangerous way, "C'mon, guys really?!" You didn't have an ending, admit it. And no, it doesn't count that we saw one under a stripper/performer's wonderful and strange high-heel at the start of the noir cinematique.
I just don't know. Will this be brought up in the next meeting? Because I am out to lunch and unavailable. Geez Louise, monsieur. Too bad, because I totally dig all that Sunday afternoon vacant outdoor set like its The Science Center or Thorncliffe Park, that certain element of Dead ringers Cronenberg, very isolating and odd, be it windy or just grey.
Loved the music, made you really want to keep watching thinking Boy, this is going to be nuts! Too bad, it really drew me in.
