"I want to be loved from as many people as possible, the truth is I'm not really a good person" A relatable line. And also this movie's cinematography is rare these days.
This film is a masterpiece one of the best, Mia Goth is outstanding from her dance audition where she looks so eager to please that she almost looks deranged,to the monologue with misty, what a performance ,to the ending when Howard comes home and her face almost pleading to know what his reaction is to how bad she has been . I loved X but this film, what can I say excellent, can't wait for Maxine.i loved the way this was filmed the colour grading the stylisation all perfect .costumes perfect, casting top notch and I do hope Mia Goth and Ty West(and all involved) get the recognition they deserve for this film .
I swear, I laughed my butt off for most off the film. These overrated directors live in such a bubble they don't even know what they're making. I get what the film was trying to be but it's done so many times before, and nothing surprised. Like Jordan Peele and whoever did Midsommar. Can't wait for "Women" installement from A24.
Wait till you see part 3! Every part is completely different. Different film stocks, lenses, lighting, editing techniques… 3 movies. 3 decades. All horror but 3 different sub genres!! MaXXXine is about to be the best film of all time!
Pearl is one of the best horror movies I have ever watched. Such a unique, intriguing, and emotional horror film that properly builds tension and is genuinely chilling to the core. Definitely the best acting I have ever seeing from Mia Goth, and imo Ti West's best movie to date. An absolute must watch for fans of true horror. Every horror director should be taking notes. This is how it's done.
I just watched "X" and I didn't realise until I looked up a few details about it since it really got me thinking after it finished, because it was so f**kin' awesome! That it has a prequel and a planned sequel... A horror movie has no right being THIS good. Wow!
I brought it on dvd the other week and have watched it 4 times it's just incredible from the colours the costume designs not forgetting the acting talent of Mia 🙏 and whoever played her mum in the film was 👌
This film is unique It is original, fun, gory, well written and acted There is a tension to it and you really get the feel of this deranged farm girl Do yourself yourself favour and watch it
Can you imagine if A24 Done its own multiverse? Pearl, Midsommar cast, The Whales Charlie, The Everything Everywhere bunch. My gosh edit - rumour has it that A24 will do this if I get 500 likes :p
This movie is really a character study of Pearl with horror/slasher elements attached. Despite being a one trick pony playing the exact same *Jack Nicholson's touched wife in The Shinning* esque type character in every movie that she's in, Mia Goths performance as Pearl is just off the freakin' Richter scale mind-blowing phenomenal, I mean shove an Oscar into her hand already. To give you some idea, Mia Goths performance is right up there with Kathy Bates in Misery just jaw-dropping throughout. The way Mia Goth played this touched a few sandwiches short of a picknick character without it being a parody performance getting us the audience to truly believe her dillusionality just like Toni Collette as Muriel in Muriel's Wedding just has to be seen to be believed. This movie totally hinges on Mia Goths performance where we the audience are like How on earth did she deliver that unnerving too good for comfort insanely method performance? Seriously Mia Goths performance has to be seen to be believed! And if like me you relish in top notch astonishing method performances on the big screen where the actor/actress removes their celebrity mask and totally embodies the character, do not miss Mia Goths performance as Pearl in the cinema..
Nice comment - the kind of thoughts-ahead-of-the-fingers I-know-my-shit-because-I-care writing that I for one really like but try using a hyphen or five.
I sat on watching this for a while and now I want to watch X again. Cannot wait for the 3rd film. I was a little skeptical of Ti West but after this, not anymore.
my favourite horror movie of this generation ❤ it was devils rejects before this. it might be tied with requiem for a dream for me (in different ways but i truly love both so much)
Mia Goth is excellent! Toward the ending of the movie she gives a solo performance that is absolutely incredible. She is sitting at the kitchen table with her sister in law who invites her to open up and share her true personal feelings,,,,,,,WOW
That was easily the most bizarre, effed up movie I've watched. I don't mind gory, but my goodness that main character was something else. Definitely sick.. mentally!
I've never quite seen a film like this before the acting from Mia Goth in this movie was probably the best acting i've seen in a while because it's fits her character in the movie to perfection. Her acting in X and Infinity pool was mid but for Pearl was chefs kiss ngl well done Mia and all the other cast.
Brilliant Movie, So well done, from the story line to the period setting to Mia Goths amazing performance... An instant Classic 9.5 out of 10. Unfortunately X didn't get near this but still an ok movie.
Wizard of oz meets baby Jane Hudson - Best movie I've seen in a very long time 👌was crying with laughter & shock 🏆🌟 can't wait to tell everyone to watch so we can confer . Hitchcock would have approved...
Pearl isn't horror. It's just moderately gory. It's a non-story about a narcissistic psychopath who, when denied the outside validation she craves, realizes she doesn't have any empathy for others, so she starts killing people who make her feel bad. That's all it's about. There's nothing scary or suspenseful about it, it's not even shocking. I saw the first movie but could barely recall it, because it's much the same. They aren't real horror movies, they aren't good at the horror aspect at all, and there's nothing else to them. Mia Goth is good, but a performance can't carry a movie that has nothing else to offer.
The monologue in this film was career making. Mia Goth performs the obvious villian monologue and makes herself, and the director Ti West, a star. If MaxXxine wasn't an opening weekend view for you... you're late to the game.
I haven't seen this movie yet, going to watch it now but it actually reminds me of the movie X with the same girl. Wonder if there's anything to this?🤔
I had a thought and feel free to tell me if it's silly or not, if ti west decided to make another movie in this universe, what if there was one showing peral and howard killing people, yes yes we know how peral became the way she is and we know that howard obviously still stayed with her but im so curious to see how that conversation went and to see them killing people together and maybe almost getting caught or something, maybe it's pointless and probably doesn't add anything to the story but definitely would have loved to see them as a young killer couple and just an excuse to see more of mia goth in action
Film vintage horror dikemas manis dengan adegan tarian ,pelajaran untuk semua ibu berikan kasih sayang,kepercayaan kepada anak anak jangan egois maka kita akan menerima buah manisnya
Imagine if pearl was around in the modern day with a phone. She’d be posing as a regular person and then when her online friends get invited to her house she tortures and murders them if they look at her a certain way. Then her mother would try to take her phone away and it won’t work cause Pearl is sneaky and can’t live without social media and she’ll be famous as a mentally ill social media killer
