i live and work in la . here the reason for my rating . first you take a random porn movie off the shelf and then you replace the physically attractive but creepy brain human being with the super ultra low rent version of the same people . only now theyre large and less attractive and save one gravel voice sex cat and and they really truly believe they be make art . this cause every action and thought and move of the camera to s l o w w a y the f k d o w n. then you take out most of the sex and replace it with documentary footage of and well and mexico city . it create a drug out kind of sensation watch it and by plant actor like stiff cardboard cutout in scene after scene and usually star into space amid say a line or two like i just kidnap a kid in subtitled slang . then be at a whore house to dangle the would be sexual carrot for a bit and and it back to star at a fat dude in a cloud of farm dust . a though it in the same metaphysical dimension a watch city of god or capote . or harry freaking potter . it blow my mind that there isn not a 14 year old in quebec with a digital video phone that hasn not put together a more compelling film to replace one like this in the indie theater . adult have sex and all . the true offense of battle in heaven isn not that it a transparently disguise mindless self indulgence which only have common thread relevance in a world that doesn not exist in reality ( a 2006 world thirst for high art concept low budget motion photograph of naked central cast hopeful ) . it not that you can see the actress head track the camera and then relax when it land on her and or the splicing of the edit in the bell ring scene and or the totally scuzzy texture and manipulatively depress guide hand of the story and of it director . the real burr under my saddle be the potential i think be there from watch the first scene and which seem so erotic and new and animalistic and folksy and deeply visceral . it be arouse . then and the movie seem to relentlessly punish me and pummel me for hour and hour into a latin america submission . the movie make me embarrass to have be turn on at the beginning . more than that and it make me feel a little repulsed even at the thought of sex . when i get home i tell actually tell my pet parrot that a piece of me have just die . that hormonal piece that get excite at the gate of heaven even though what await me be just another battle . watch this film age me . i grow up more than i want to today . it be icky . i be normally one to shun mean spirited criticism of other people art and but obviously this be where i draw the line . these filmmaker deserve many thing and but participation in hollywood isn not one of them . i should know and i be in gigli .
