Review of The Neon Demon (2016) by Tamara M — 15 Nov 2016

Awful. I am a massive fan of Winding Refn's work but this was so abhorrently vacuous, I could see no redeeming qualities at all except for stylized shots. The characters were nothing short of idiotic and infantile.

There was no depth to the plot or characters. The female roles portrayed women as some sort of mindless robots pursuing youth and beauty. There were no dimensions to any of them. I don't know if Nicolas believes this is what women are or what the fuck he was thinking.

I'm so, so disappointed.
