Dangerous women?

Pretty movie, remind me those old erotic-thrillers broadcast after 22h. But this is an Italian one. Strange, and furthermore : the director is Ruggero Deodato. The story and characters are strange and this could be a lame erotic-thriller, but it is strange enough to be just acceptable for some viewers or quite good for others.

Contains one of the best panties-shot of the soft-porn cinema (during the sequence in the museum). The picture quality is very sharp, very detailed and colourful, like many Italian movies. Like a Gucci ad, but fitted into a Ruggero Deodato erotic thriller. Terrific!

One of the actresses, I mean the baby-faced one, have one of the most beautiful face I've ever seen, because her character is strange, mysterious, and the french dubbing (bad, as usual in those movies) make her seem more strange than she is in the original version. All these small elements make me remind her even after a long time.

WARNING : SPOILERS down here

And the final shot : we see sometimes the evil women winning at the end of those movies (most of the times, men, after being mistreated along the movie, finally win), but in this one, four women are staring at the camera, with a final laughin' echoed, etc. OK, it's cliché, but I like it, it is so naive it becomes sincere, and thus, quite fascinating. Four gorgeous and mysterious women. I'd add it's quite a misogynistic ending, but I don't pay attention to this propaganda, I mean not in those lame kind of movies. Misoginy is very frequent in these, but if you can notice it and not pay attention to it, or even laughin' at it like at bad SPFX, it's OK, see it and you won't be afraid by real women in the reality (I'm not really jokin' sayin' that, 'cos I believed it was true when I was watching these kind of movies when I was 14 or so...). It's a good thing to prohibit these to young teens. I really think it. (I'm so glad to have discovered that women are not dangerous! Yeah!)

score 7/10
