Poor things make me feel like I am seeing an animated painting with its bright color grading and filters. We had seen Emma Stone prove her versatility as an actress in multidimensional words. She did some mistakes in her career in the past but she redeemed herself in her more recent films. Her performance in Cruella still resonates with me. Director Yorgos Lanthimos Puts us in this trippy world. A world that looks like Victorian England but with modern technology beyond our imagination. It is like a fantastical retrofuturistic delight for the eyes. It felt so weird and psychedelic that my eyes are begging for more even if I have no idea what is going on. Emma Stone is given a talented roster of supporting cast consisting of Mark Ruffalo, Willem Dafoe, Margaret Qualley, and Ramy Youssef.

Poor Things Official Trailer

Dr. Godwin Baxter (Willem Dafoe) is a scientist who plays God and makes creatures you may consider an abomination. I mean imagine a Goose with the body of a pug and a pug with a body of a goose. Such creatures do not make sense but he can make them exist. His greatest creation though will be Bella Baxter. (Emma Stone). She was a corpse he found in the ocean who seems to come from an older time where women barely have rights. He uses a kind of science beyond our world’s logic. He electrocuted the body and she came back to life.

She doesn’t behave like a normal human but she is learning fast. Bella is curious about the outside world and wants to learn more about the world and herself. First, she remembers her name and we will get to see her evolve as a human and as a woman. She will meet Duncan Wedderburn(Mark Ruffalo) A Lawyer with questionable intentions. They will have adventures together as she discovers herself. Poor Things will be in theaters this September 8, 2023. Despite its whimsical trailer, It is not for Kids. It is R-18 because of nudity and sex.

Emma Stone looks really interesting in this film, and I'm curious to see how the story unfolds. The visuals seem unique and colorful, which is a nice change from the usual. I'm looking forward to experiencing the weirdness that this movie promises! The film's trailer offers a different and visually Psychedelic experience. It felt like a movie directed by Tim Burton.

I just watched the trailer for Poor Things, and it looks intriguing in a good way. Emma Stone seems to embrace her character's uniqueness, and the overall visual style is colorful and interesting. I'm curious about her origins and where she came from. It felt creepy though to see Emma Stone kissing Mark Ruffalo since he is 11 years older than her and I saw her kissing another old dude.

Poor Things caught my attention like a squirrel chasing a shiny acorn. The visuals are like a burst of colorful fireworks in the sky, and Emma Stone's role is as coo because its crazy in a good way. This movie brings a fun and insanity. It felt like a finding a secret door to a magical world..

LOL Poor Things trailer is like a wild, mind-bending trip into a crazy, psychedelic world. The visuals are so trippy and out there, it's almost like experiencing an alternate reality. Even though I've been sober since birth, I can imagine how someone might think they're on drugs while watching that trailer. What drugs are the directors and writers are on? LOL

I'm not sure what to make of Poor Things from the trailer, but it definitely has a unique and trippy vibe. Emma Stone is such a talented actress, so I'm curious to see how she portrays a character similar to Edward Scissorhands. The supporting cast looks great too.The fantasy setting and trippy visuals have me wanting to watch it.

Hulk and Gwen Stacy Hooking up is something I never thought I will see on screen.

I have mixed feelings about Poor Things. On one hand, the visual style is captivating and Emma Stone's acting is always on point. On the other hand, the concept of creating creatures like Frankenstein feels a bit strange.The trailer for Poor Things left me a bit confused, to be honest. The visuals were stunning, but I couldn't quite grasp the storyline. Emma Stone's talent is undeniable, so I hope the film clarifies things

Poor Things looks like a movie that will push the boundaries of imagination.The world of Poor Things seems so fantastical and otherworldly. Emma Stone's portrayal of Bella Baxter is bound to be interesting, considering she's a corpse brought back to life. I'm both curious and slightly wary of what this film has in store.
