Uhmm... Of course I only ask in terms of the artistic merit of the film, but just how much did she strip and reveal?

A perfectly legitimate and non-perv related question.
I don't recall the scene too well, as I was more engrossed in the other aspects of this masterpiece, but if memory serves me correctly she appears bare-arse farking naked in front of a mirror.

I saw Fences the other day. I thought the story and acting were excellent but it very much appeared like a play which had been turned into a film. I don't think it worked very well as a piece of cinema. Story and acting are important though so 3.5 stars from me

I really liked this. As someone else said: probably the best acting performance of Ryan Reynolds's career (outside Deadpool).
A tale of the struggle with mortality, and the consequences it can have, is pretty interesting in a society where science promises to conquer aging and decay. But like in this case, maybe only for the wealthy!

Looked interesting - I'm a bit of a sucker for dystopia movies. Pace was a little slow, and Banderas obviously got pussy-whipped into putting then-wife
Meg RyanMelanie Griffiths into it. Probably why they're split up, as trying to make her old plastic head sound like a robotics engineer was always going to fail.Anyway, I thought it could have used a bit more zing, but it was quite well shot and scored. Very interesting concepts around AI and whatnot.
