This movie is a crazy trip! The more sense you try to make out of it, the less sense it actually makes. Its clever, well acted and fucked up…

This made no sense at all. Still I may try it again, 17 years on it might make more sense…

Naked Lunch was my real first experience with classic David Cronenberg, and, at first, I wasn't sure what to make of it; granted, some degree…

It's a hard film to review because it is based on a book that can either be read in a linear or non-linear way…

By Grant J (69) on 12 Aug 2017

I still don't quite understand it fully, but I really did enjoy it. It is an extremely strange and well-made picture…

Review of Naked Lunch (1991)

By Kerby H (812) on 05 Mar 2014

This really lacks a narrative story line and has rather uninteresting dialogue…

Review of Naked Lunch (1991)

By Richard D (1,732) on 27 Dec 2015

Amazing. Cronenberg's best work IMO. A trip from start to end, not for the close minded. William S's work was done great justice in this movie…
