Un amour dévorant entre sœurs. Répugnance prétendument choquante et originale. Psychologiquement inopérant, dramatiquement plat, feignant la fausse intelligence par le cynisme. [Cannes]

Who would have thought that this co-production film would be just my taste? (I couldn't resist the pun) Unlike similar horror films I'm used to from the overseas production, it was more of a psychological drama, although a diehard vegan would probably disagree with me and struggle with nightmares. The pace wasn’t exactly break-neck but I didn't get bored at all because I was enjoying the main character’s psychological transformation.

The film Raw will definitely have its fans because it is very well made and not afraid to show something that is really ugly. It's not a film that's full of violence, but you'll definitely find perversion here. Moreover, it's not a film without a story, it's a film that has a plot that goes somewhere. And that's what's nice about it. Even so, you may find the nastiness a bit self-serving at times.

First of all, don’t go to Raw expecting horror. To present it as a brutal horror film that makes the audience faint is almost insulting. If anyone passed out while watching it, it must have been some old fart who would have passed out regardless, Raw or no Raw. Nevermind, I could have ignored this “scam” if the film was interesting and somehow stimulating. If only! The first-time director seems to be trying to say something profound about society, but does it with bullshit that stands on very shaky foundations. In order for her to take the plot where she needs, events lose their logical consequence and none of the characters behave like real people (the problematic use of gay secondary characters is only the tip of the iceberg), which is quite a problem for a film that wants to say something about people and that also takes place in the real world, and not in an alternative reality, like in The Lobster. This is self-absorbed, gratuitously provoking art that’s totally empty inside. The advanced première at the hipster cinema Bio Oko, in Letná, was really fitting.

The French have always been fond of these strangely slightly perverted, even perverse, themes and I always love them. The protagonist is a vegetarian who goes to vet school where she is forced to eat a rabbit kidney and from that point on she begins to develop a craving for meat that leads to cannibalism. An original premise that deals with quite serious themes (homosexuality, anorexia, cannibalism). It's more psychologically oriented, but there are a few gross things. It's convincingly acted, skillfully shot and considering the film is set in a school, which is usually close to my heart, I was supremely entertained throughout the entire runtime. The unexpected final denouement is also a plus. For me, France scores again. 75%
