The Love Witch (2016)

Visually stunning, but something critical is missing. — Written by random12345 on 03.09.2023

Whomever create the visual feel of this movie did an incredible job. The colors, the shots, and the feel of each frame is stunning. It's then interspersed with nudity of topless (and often bottomless) women to tone up the sexuality in the movie. Even with all this sexuality sex, there's still a very sterile sense to this movie. An interesting contrast.

But this alone isn't enough to pull the movie together. The acting is at times amateurish, with line delivery that often feels dead an false. I regularly got bored and UN-interested in the characters to the point where I'd stop the film and start it days later.

The plot is a bit of a trope. The femme fatale (literally) seduces men to their deaths. While that alone doesn't kill this movie, the lack of anything else to hold it together does. The visuals and cinematography, while excellent, isn't enough to pull this out of the dumpster.
