You liked this film? I thought it was terrible, then again I saw it when it came out. Needs a rewatch.

Cronenberg's masterpiece. An ultra-controlled, fetishistic look at a group of selfish, despicable people going to extreme and destructive lengths to feel alive. The cold eroticism and aesthetics are incredible, all the shiny metal and leather against deteriorating bodies and scarred flesh. The performances are equally beautiful, sad and disturbingly empty

This even beats Eyes Wide Shut for the most sterile sex scenes ever! Achievement. Considering that the plot outline must have been: "kinky sex in cars, over and over again."

Transcendent performances across the board (especially Elias Koteas'). A triumph of form and content. Great score, cinematography, editing... also this movie is really FUCKED UP. (9.3/10)

Ugh! Had hopes that a second viewing after 7-8 years would help but no - still a mediocre film that tediously pushes the Frank Booth-button. Just doesn't do it for me in any way.

Horrible. I really was expecting more from Cronenberg. It's just soft porn with almost no story, while the book is amazing. After reading the book you're completely captured by the twisted psychology of the varios characters (Ballard is a master in this), while after watching the movie I just felt I threw away two hours of my day.

Este filme trata da psicopatia mais estúpida de que ouvi falar até agora. A beleza está toda na maneira como ao longo do filme um gajo é levado a acreditar na sua credibilidade. Tenta ser poético. Falha. Vale pelas poucas partes de acção e pelos teorias maradas do personagem principal.

Well, I have to say that I did like the sex scenes, I thought they were very powerful and sexy not being too typical or even boring. Also the whole concept of the recreation of the car accidents was very neat, you can almost feel as perverted as them when you're watching it (at least for me).

Speaking of challenging art, this film is always liable to leave a mark on it's unsuspecting viewers with it's invitations to comparisons between car wrecks and sex. Obsessions and compulsions give way into collisions in something that beckons Kustom Kar Kommandos.

Like it or hate, this is the last truly unified statement Cronenberg made on film. Everything since has been patchy at best.

This was probably the most twisted shit I had ever seen when I saw this as a 6th grader on IFC late one night. Its a shame that when I mention this, everyone thinks I'm talking about that shitty Paul Haggis movie.

Send a letter to Dimitris telling him how much you hate Greek cinema. Then he will proceed to self destroy and reset the MUBI database while doing it. Good luck ;).

I just rated this film. But I didn't even watch it. The title induce in error. Sorry...Is there any way to un-rate it?

Not a perfect Cronenberg film, but a powerfully strange, haunting, and underrated one. Worth watching for the music alone, which, for me, is one of the greatest film scores, ever.
