The Woman (2011)

Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Powerful

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

First to mention, it's like it's had been filmed with a $800 camera with a hand, maximum 2 persons. It just lowers the rate by half when you see it. The main character is a delusional misogynist who abuses the whole family. It just messed up that I have wanted to end the movie but I just wanted to see may I get out the two out of ten but no! It just bothers me, a weak man abuses the whole family. He is trying to be macho but I've never seen such a weak character. I could slap him with a hand and tell him, go at your place. And that cissy abuses everyone?! All the characters look very weird, it's probably because of the movie or because the budget was less than the price of the camera they filmed it. The daughter's professor look the same age as the girl, I was like come on, couldn't you find some plus five years older character? What they done good in the movie is the plot when you have to realize he had raped his daughter. It could be easily noticed as she is crying and unerringly when her professor comes to her home. Then there is a scene when the father will abduct the professor, all of it is like come on, when you will stop?I got the point this is an anti-feminist movie but couldn't you make something like I spit on your grave 2? That movie has a clear message and much higher budget. I liked the vengeance part on the end which I was waiting 45 minutes. I wanted to rate is as a two but the synopsis & the film wallpaper tell you it's probably 7 or 8 but when I saw I was tricked by a movie promo.I mean nothing is going around in the movie, it's so boring, filmed rate: worst thus when you see who is the abuser and many other things worthless to mention, you can not rate this as a sufficient. Great promo indeed, worst movie indeed.

I had this movie on my watch list for a long time and I thought that if it had a 6 star raring for so long maybe the trailer is bad but the movie will surprise me. well, it was worst the the trailer !! the actress (maybe just beside the father and the woman) was awful. the script is so stupid in so many ways - really, she lives next to them for so many years and never noticed them?Im sorry to tell that I didn't like a thing about this movie! it was so bad in my opinion that its the first time I write a review and I felt like I had to do so in order to save others from spending 90 min from their life, like I did.bottom line - do NOT watch this one !

This movie started out quite well, and it does have some rather disturbing moments to it. But about two-thirds into the movie it just got too much and the movie went downhill at lightning speed, at the point where Belle confronts Chris.Story-wise then certain aspects of the movie were just amazing and rather interesting, despite the brutality and absurdity of it all. But at the same time there were just stuff that was so far out there that it was bordering on being stupid."The Woman" is a character-driven movie, and that is the strongest point of the movie. And a movie like that is all-dependent on some serious acting performances. And to that point it should be said that all actors and actresses were doing really great jobs. Most outstanding and memorable was Pollyanna McIntosh as the feral woman, and also Angela Bettis as Belle.I had initially expected more from "The Woman", because I was told that it was a brutal and great movie. And now having seen it, I am somewhat disappointed with the movie.It should be said that this is not your average style of horror movie, and that is one of the strong points to the movie. And without ruining the ending, but wow, seriously? Are you kidding me? You just have to see it for yourself...

Either i'm missing something here or the reviews here are more than a little odd. This films dreadful. I wanted to slap the daughter around myself half way through the acting was so one dimensional. That's something for me when i cant usually spot bad acting. The pacing of the films muddled and is so full of plot holes you'd be mistaken you were watching a bad 70's soap opera. Its bad, very bad and if you don't believe me watch it. You to, will be scratching your head at anything over 5 for a review. The characters are very flawed and don't seem to really know who they are. Ironically, except the teacher who's done over before shes had a chance to and the feral one. At one stage i'm wondering why after the protagonist loses it why on earth someone wouldn't call the Police, not just once, but several times. Its comically bad. The end? Haha, i save reviews for films that have left me angry that someones had the audacity to release. Watch it.
