NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Smoreni Zmaj A drama about a young man, born with a perfect sense of smell, trying to create a perfect perfume, a fragrance that will allow humans to, at least for a moment, touch Paradise. The story, at the same time deeply romantic and extremely morbid, so perfectly told from the angle of the serial killer, that you must make an effort not to cheer for him. The film is perfect to the tiniest detail, and the last two scenes, the scene of "execution" and the scene of "suicide", are among the most powerful movie scenes I have ever seen.10/10
Thanos Karagioras "Perfume: The Story of a Murderer" is a crime fantasy movie in which we watch the story of a boy who was born with a talent, his talent is an unnerving sense of smell. This talent of his is going to be the most important obtain of his in his whole life. His main goal is to capture and save all of the smells that are around him or exist in the world. From all the smells around him, he is beckoned to the scent of woman's soul so, at this point his goal as well as his whole life changes. And his work takes a very different - dark turn while he is trying to make the ultimate scent.I have to admit that when I read about this movie and saw the trailer I expected more from it when I watched it. The only thing that I liked from this movie was the interpretations of Dustin Hoffman who played as Giuseppe Baldini and Alan Rickman who played Richis. The leading actor of this movie Ben Whishaw who played as Jean-Baptiste Grenouille made an average interpretation. Also the average direction which was made by Tom Tykwer didn't save this movie.Finally, I have to say that "Perfume: The Story of a Murderer" is an average movie but it can be seen by everyone. It's not something extraordinary, it has a simple plot with some good interpretations which were made by its cast and an average written script. If you want to watch this movie just don't expect much from it and don't have high expectations or hopes.
siteonecharlestonsc The man had a fascination with morphine. He watched his own mother dying of cancer, helped by morphine. He developed a morphine habit of his own, and killed his victims using morphine, a particularly stupid method, seeing as morphine is so easily traceable. "Stupid", was favorite word of his. He considered himself above mere mortals and loved to belittle "stupid" underlings. That says a lot about the man. He avoided detection whenever possible by having the bodies cremated. For years no one thought to challenge him. You just don't think badly of the hard working family doctor, do you? At least people didn't, back then.https://goo.gl/GsrdNZ
