Review of The Neon Demon (2016) by Johnnymnec — 06 Aug 2016

A very disturbing movie with beautiful visuals and amazing soundtrack. When I say disturbing, I mean it, I wanted the movie end sooner while I was watching it, but now I'm dying to see it again.

The main thing I feel about the Neon Demon after thinking over is that, everything works. The cast selection, every moment and dialogue, color and vibe, and every repulsive scene help to create the hyper-realistic criticism of the perception/obsession of beauty.

Then again, there is a good chance that this movie is not for you. Checking for the past Refn movies first can give some idea whether you will enjoy the Neon Demon.
