Kinsey (2004)

the audience applauded

Simply A Masterpiece

This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

I found this film to be an interesting and engrossing account of the Life of Alfred Kinsey,played by liam Neeson.whether you like him or not,if the movie is any indication,he was a pioneer in the area of sexual research.at the very least he changed the way peopled look at and perceive sex.he's no doubt a polarizing figure.some people ,I'm sure,reviled him while others applauded him.the movie is very in its language and its depiction of sex,i all its forms.there is some quite graphic language as well as some explicit nudity,but it's shown in a tasteful way and not just gratuitous.it definitely earns its 18A rating though.this is not a film for everybody.some may find it offensive.i didn't but that just me.for me,Kinsey is an 8/10

lets talk about a true story of humans and sex it is a fascinating funny and thoroughly entertaining film from the writer and director of god and monsters it star Liam nesson character as the doctor doing research into 1960 America love is the answer but sex raises a lot of interesting question this film portrays Albert Kinsey in moving way a visionary driven to uncover the most private sexual secrets of a country laura Linnea plays Albert wife in this film she play a an OK character dealing with marriage issues and test his journey. a man on a mission to ultimately changes American society forever and created a book of his studies which became a media sensation just like 50 shades of gray but for men showing their behavior this sparked debates that still go on to this day very enjoyable film at 1hr53mins 7.5/10 my 152 review

The film is based on the the biography of Alfred Kinsey, the father of modern sexual research and revolution. Liam Neeson is fabulous in portraying Kinsey's priceless efforts and true integrity with his research on human sexuality. He, in his role, turns too lively in breaking the social and moral controversy to establish his works in this prejudiced dark field. Laura Linney becomes also splendid in her supportive presence. Both the script and direction, generated by Bill Condon, are nicely unconventional to depict Kinsey's personal life and his conflict with the society's decorum. The discussion parts with several individuals sound so epic and amusing :p Undeniably, this is one of the best biographical movies I have ever seen :)))___9/10___

The father of Sexology, Alfred Kinsey himself can only be defined as a man without fear, or limit in the quest he took to further examine the nature of human sexuality in the various forms it expresses itself. He would penetrate the strongest of barriers, showing his utmost direct attention, leaving very little to be unexamined. With a performance as serious and upfront performed by Liam Neeson, you'll have no choice but to wonder why it wasn't serious enough for a best actor Oscar nomination. In the course of the film we viewers witness Alfred Kinsey live life with a curiosity in biology, particularly that if Gall Wasps, leading him to the midpoint of his career to further develop a keen interest into the numerous types of sexual practices people engage in, and why exactly they do it. He ignores all barriers in this quest, hiring a team of students wise enough to be trained to a form of sophistication that enables them to question people with similar curiosity about there sexuality. The film's intro is proof of their direct form of interviewing, asking people when they first choked their bishops, had sex with someone for the first time, or if by luck whether they've ever experimented with the same sex. Kinsey took out all the social qualities which contribute to sex. Hell his wife Mac (Linney) proved to be helpful when she herself divulged herself into what many would call the insanity of her husbands quest for the full truth about sex. The Kinsey Scale was a scale, which ranges from 0 to 6, where 0 being exclusively heterosexual and 6 being exclusively homosexual. This form of mesauring an individual's sexual curiosity became quite useful, especially to it's inventor when he himself had a casul sexual experience with his assistant/student Clyde Matrin (Saarsgard). The moment was a spur to both, leaving Kinsey with the option of learning why he felt this form of sexual identification, when he clearly was married, having never any homosexual feelings, proving further that human's sexual behavior is different. There is a more common form of human sexiality, with men being attracted to women, leaving the possibility of the less, but still noticeable homosexual, and bisexual participants. In the mist of his research he published 2 novels, in regards to the sexual behavior of both sexes. One novel being for the male sex, while the other novel being in regards to the female sex. Despite the controversy towards his works and the disrespect it showed to the many people who understandably valued the penetration of sex as a taboo, Kinsey continued using what he had with the Rockafellar foundation to continue his research. The film ends with Kinsey still facing the controversy over the publication of his 2nd work, but not leaving him with doubt. In an interview an unnamed woman, Kinsey sees the very work he's dedicated his work too has not only given him more accurate looks into the various forms of sexual practice, but also the answers some very unhappy people were looking for. There a lot of people out in this world who are never aware, nor brave enough to come to terms with their own sexuality, leaving them very deppressed, lacking in confidence, and furthermore persecuted by others. I can't say Kinsey was completely right when it came to discovering all these facts, however I will say he has a lot of balls to actuall attempt something so bold . I mean he had his own research assitants have sex with various peole for the purpose of further study. His wife Mac was apart of that research. Nevertheless peole do what they have to to get answers, which often may see them as strange, but in some cases uniques, and that's what I truly think about a guy like Alfread Kinsey, someone who really digs deep to find whatever forms of truth the search requires.
