    Hola amigos de la comunidad de Movies & Tv el día de ayer ví una de las películas que más quería ver desde hace un buen tiempo pero que por alguna razón aún no lo había hecho. Mi hermana me recomendó esta película que es bastante diferente a lo que suelo ver ya que toca temas de canibalismo y también de terror mezclado con hechiceria. Está película es un clásico del año 2008 donde muchos quedaron encantados con el papel que hizo Megan Fox, aunque la película fue algo diferente a lo que suelo ver la verdad es que me pareció bastante buena y entretenida y con una trama que me dejó enganchada desde el principio hasta el desenlace. Si no eres muy amante de las películas de terror o de películas donde hay escenas explícitas de canibalismo y también de muertes y sangre entonces te advierto que es mejor que no la veas ya que esta pelicula está llena de todo esto.
    Hello friends of the Movies & Tv community yesterday I saw one of the movies that I wanted to see for a long time but for some reason I still hadn't done it. My sister recommended me this movie that is quite different from what I usually see since it touches on themes of cannibalism and also horror mixed with witchcraft. This movie is a classic of 2008 where many were delighted with the role that Megan Fox played, although the movie was something different from what I usually see the truth is that I found it quite good and entertaining and with a plot that left me hooked from the beginning to the denouement. If you are not very fond of horror movies or movies where there are explicit scenes of cannibalism and also of deaths and blood then I warn you that it is better not to see it since this movie is full of all this.

    Jennifer tenía una vida bastante normal aunque era considerada una de las chicas más bellas y popular de su escuela, lo que hacía que fuera diferente era su amistad con una chica nerd llamada Needy la cual es totalmente lo opuesto a ella, aún así pasan algunos momentos juntas en clases y se ven de vez en cuando. En una fiesta donde Jennifer invita a Needy conocen a unos chicos miembros de una banda musical, de inmediato Jennifer se siente atraida por el vocalista y decide invitarle un trago a lo que el no se puede resistir. Después de que el bar por alguna razón terminará ardiendo en llamas, Needy intenta disuadir a Jennifer para que regrese con ella a su casa pero Jennifer no le hace caso y se va en la furgoneta de los chicos de la banda y todo comienza a ponerse mal después de esto.
    Jennifer had a pretty normal life although she was considered one of the most beautiful and popular girls in her school, what made her different was her friendship with a nerdy girl named Needy who is the complete opposite of her, they still spend some time together in class and see each other from time to time. At a party where Jennifer invites Needy they meet some guys who are members of a musical band, immediately Jennifer feels attracted to the vocalist and decides to buy him a drink to which he can't resist. After the bar for some reason ends up going up in flames, Needy tries to dissuade Jennifer to go back home with her but Jennifer ignores him and leaves in the band guys' van and everything starts to go wrong after that.

    Jennifer aparece en la casa de Needy cubierta de sangre de pies a cabeza y tiene una actitud bastante extraña. Needy trata de hablar con ella y preguntarle que le sucedió y en ese momento ocurre algo grotesco, desde allí Needy trata de entender que es lo que está pasando con su amiga Jennifer y también con unas repentinas muertes muy seguidas en el pueblo de una manera brutal como si de un animal se tratase. Está película tiene bastante contenido violento y perturbador aunque para mí estilo no me pareció algo horrible, pude tolerar las escenas que son consideradas las más fuertes, además de que la película aborda el tema delicado del canibalismo y también de el estar poseído.
    Jennifer shows up at Needy's house covered in blood from head to toe and has a rather strange attitude. Needy tries to talk to her and ask her what happened to her and at that moment something grotesque happens, from there Needy tries to understand what is happening with her friend Jennifer and also with some sudden deaths in the town in a brutal way as if it were an animal. This film has quite a lot of violent and disturbing content although for me style did not seem something horrible, I could tolerate the scenes that are considered the strongest, plus the film addresses the delicate issue of cannibalism and also being possessed.

    Lo que hace única a esta película es cómo aborda temas como la sexualidad femenina y el poder que puede surgir cuando una mujer decide reclamar su propia identidad. A medida que Jennifer se transforma físicamente, también lo hace su actitud hacia aquellos que alguna vez la subestimaron. Se convierte en una figura empoderada y vengativa, dispuesta a tomar el control de su destino sin importar las consecuencias. Parece que después del hecho atroz que ocurrió con los chicos de la banda que ocultaban su historial de violadores y que también hacían pactos con el diablo todo en Jennifer cambio, muchas personas se podrían sentir identificadas con ella no por el hecho de convertirse en un monstruo si no por buscar venganza luego de haber sido víctima del abuso, que aunque no estoy de acuerdo en que debemos tomar la violencia por nuestras propias manos, en el caso de Jennifer creo que había demasiado dolor dentro de ella además del hecho de haber sido parte de un ritual que la termino por cambiar. El guion ingeniosamente escrito por Diablo Cody nos sumerge en diálogos llenos de sarcasmo e ironía, agregando capas adicionales a la narrativa. Además, los personajes secundarios, como Needy, interpretada por Amanda Seyfried, aportan un contraste fascinante a la historia. Needy es la mejor amiga de Jennifer y se convierte en su principal defensora mientras lucha por comprender y enfrentar los eventos sobrenaturales que rodean a su amiga. La dirección de Karyn Kusama es impecable. Cada escena está meticulosamente diseñada para crear una atmósfera tensa y perturbadora. Los efectos visuales son impresionantes, logrando transmitir el horror que envuelve a los personajes de una manera impactante.
    What makes this film unique is how it addresses issues such as female sexuality and the power that can arise when a woman decides to reclaim her own identity. As Jennifer transforms physically, so does her attitude towards those who once underestimated her. She becomes an empowered and vengeful figure, willing to take control of her destiny no matter the consequences. It seems that after the atrocious event that happened with the boys in the gang who hid their history of rape and who also made pacts with the devil everything in Jennifer changed, many people could identify with her not for the fact of becoming a monster but for seeking revenge after being a victim of abuse, that although I do not agree that we should take violence into our own hands, in Jennifer's case I think there was too much pain inside her besides the fact of having been part of a ritual that ended up changing her. Diablo Cody's cleverly written script immerses us in dialogue full of sarcasm and irony, adding additional layers to the narrative. In addition, secondary characters, such as Needy, played by Amanda Seyfried, bring a fascinating contrast to the story. Needy is Jennifer's best friend and becomes her main advocate as she struggles to understand and cope with the supernatural events surrounding her friend. Karyn Kusama's direction is impeccable. Each scene is meticulously crafted to create a tense and disturbing atmosphere. The visual effects are stunning, managing to convey the horror that envelops the characters in a shocking manner.

    "Jennifer's Body" no solo es una película de terror convencional; también es un comentario social sobre el poder y la influencia que pueden tener las apariencias en nuestra sociedad. Diablo Cody nos desafía a reflexionar sobre cómo juzgamos a los demás basándonos únicamente en su aspecto físico, recordándonos que detrás de cada rostro hermoso puede haber secretos oscuros. "Jennifer's Body" es una película escalofriante y cautivadora que va más allá del género de terror tradicional. Con actuaciones brillantes, un guion ingenioso y una dirección magistral, esta obra maestra cinematográfica te mantendrá quieto durante las dos horas de película y pensarás que has visto todo pero no es así, el final fue una de mis partes favoritas y realmente me sorprendió y me encantó. Las cosas se salen de control y llevan a Jennifer hasta el límite de si misma en esta increíble película y muy buena actuación la de Megan Fox.
    "Jennifer's Body" is not only a conventional horror film; it is also a social commentary on the power and influence that appearances can have in our society. Diablo Cody challenges us to reflect on how we judge others based solely on their physical appearance, reminding us that behind every beautiful face can be dark secrets. "Jennifer's Body" is a chilling and captivating film that goes beyond the traditional horror genre. With brilliant performances, a witty script and masterful direction, this cinematic masterpiece will keep you still throughout the two hour film and you'll think you've seen it all but you haven't, the ending was one of my favorite parts and really surprised and delighted me. Things spiral out of control and take Jennifer to the limit of herself in this amazing movie and very good performance by Megan Fox.

  2. Jennifer's Body - Movie Review@coldsteem3155d

    body.jpg

    My biggest complaint with Jennifer's Body is that we never get to see it. What? You put Megan Fox in a movie with a suggestive title and then you don't deliver the goods? It's almost enough to make me want my money back. But then again, it was on Netflix, so it didn't cost me anything. (Insert smiley face here).

    Jennifer's Body is a campy horror film that makes light of the genre while delivering healthy doses of suspense and gore. The title character is a popular cheerleader-type who becomes possessed by a demon creating a monthly hunger for human flesh (I wonder if that timing had any significance?) Jennifer's best friend, Anita (Amanda Seyfried), figures out that Jennifer is a, well...man-eater. Their cozy relationship comes to a head when Anita is forced to intervene between Jennifer and Anita's boyfriend, Chip (Johnny Simmons).

    Throw in a wannabe rock band obsessed with the occult, a hit single that is mediocre at best, plenty of blood vomit and freaky special effects, and you have yourself a horror film. While Jennifer's Body takes the subject matter lightly (and with some predictability) it does manage some interesting suspense and gore, making it a horror film in its own right. But the effect ended up being milquetoast. It wasn't a pure spoof, nor was it a pure horror movie. The lack of clear direction resulted in a film that held some promise, but was barely average. The film delivers interesting characters (although poorly developed), weak dialogue, predictability...everything you would expect from a lowbrow horror film, but without the punch.

    Dare I mention the acting? Megan Fox and Amanda Seyfried actually did a decent job. Better than many of the horror films I have seen where the good looking girl in the skimpy clothes never utters an intelligent word. Fox is more than just a pretty face. She adds some depth to her character and definitely a layer of charm. I thought the performances were decent for an otherwise mediocre film.

    Part of my reasoning for ordering this film was the writer, Diablo Cody. The setting is your typical Cody backdrop (rural Minnesota), but the writing lacked her usual fire. The dialogue was especially poor considering her writing in Juno and Young Adult. Both had exceptional dialogue.

    Jennifer's Body is Rated R, although I saw an unrated version. The rating was pegged primarily to the violence. While there are suggestive themes, as indicated by the title, the film contains no nudity. It does contain a sex scene and plenty of adult situations and innuendo. Those factors did not seem contextual, so the least they could have done is thrown in some nudity for good measure. They stopped just short. The violence included a decent gore factor, enough to give younger viewers nightmares. I would suggest at least a teen audience for this film.

    Jennifer's Body was a disappointment. It held promise, but never fulfilled it. I liked the concept, but found that the film fell flat in many areas. The dialogue was weak, the plot predictable and the comedy never explored or developed. The performances weren't bad, but they didn't have much to work with. The characters held some intrigue, although there could have been some more depth in that area, too. Cody let me down. In fact, I find it hard to believe this dialogue was created by the same writer who did Young Adult. I guess that's the breaks. 6/10. Decent enough for a rainy day.
