Review of Shame (2011) by Sanjaya & — 30 Dec 2012

'Shame' is just another movie that had a strong performance from their two main character (Michael Fassbender & Carey Mulligan) but didn't have an interesting story to be told.. The way that Michael Fassbender played Brandon, he looks like he really blend with his character, like he is really a sex addict.

. While Carey Mulligan successfully destroyed the good girl image that she had when she first become famous of 'An Education' (which is still one of my favorite movies until this time).. And even both of them show their brave performance without using any clothes in a scene but too bad the Oscars overlooked it.

. But from the story of the movie, to be honest I didn't like it at all.. It just feels like the audiences getting to know about a piece of life from a sex addict and the ending didn't conclude anything.

. But Steve McQueen did it again with his fame directing technique (a long scene with just one shot that get fame in 'Hunger' and this time he did some scenes that way and it just made me amazed with the performance of Michael Fassbender.

. Overall, it's a movie that had a strong performance from their the actors but didn't had an interesting story to be told..
