Marquis de Sade: Justine
Despite the highly exploitative poster this film felt like a dark and twisted fairy tale that you would stumble on by accident as a child. It deals with so many different topics (like unfair relationships between characters, peoples evil wishes and fantasies and most importantly love). I was truly hooked while watching and I was constantly anxious when the main character - Justine got in trouble and difficult situations like choices where none of her choices would benefit her.A truly fantastic film.

I'm not sure what the purpose of this film is; it doesn't really satisfy any tastes. If you were looking for a real film, the terrible acting and boring story (which is essentially just Justine getting her top ripped off in different locations before fleeing to the next) are going to ruin it for you. If you were looking for a beautiful movie to enjoy aesthetically, there are some solid sets and Romina Power is absolutely gorgeous, but rarely is it in service of something greater. If you just wanted to see some boobs, they're there, but the context makes it pretty hard to enjoy. If you wanted to enjoy the technicals and film making, there really isn't here (the editing is weird and they do the thing where some actors aren't speaking English, so they dub over them) and the terribly done ADR is most of the movie. It's like a road movie, except we follow Justine running away from place to place stopping at new locations for some awful acting and exploitation. I'll admit that I watched this movie because of Romina Power and I imagine most of the audience for this film was hoping to see more of her (in more ways than one), but this movie can't even satisfy that. I don't know who this movie is even for. Your average episode of Game of Thrones had more sex appeal than this movie and a better story, even when you consider the last three seasons. They stretch this movie for two hours and at no point was it worth it. I wanted a movie and I guess it technically qualifies, it's just barely.
