    Petula (Rachel Weisz) meets Dorothy (Susan Lynch) when Dorothy smacks a lead pipe into the head of Petula's boyfriend, who was strangling Petula at the time. Thus begins the darkly comic thriller Beautiful Creatures--a little bit Thelma & Louise, a little bit Alfred Hitchcock at his most sardonic. When Petula's boyfriend dies, she and Dorothy cook up a scheme to extort money out of the boyfriend's rich and vicious older brother--a scheme that would probably have fallen to pieces until an investigating police detective named George starts to help it along for devious reasons of his own. Soon Dorothy and Petula are coping with a bitten-off finger, Dorothy's own nasty boyfriend, a salesclerk with a bondage fetish, and more. Fans of movies with a similarly deadpan tone (like Bound, Fargo, and Pulp Fiction) will love the film's caustic humor, and both Weisz and Lynch are delightful. Fast-paced and unpredictable, Beautiful Creatures is a witty thriller that deserves attention. --Bret Fetzer

    3 out of 5 stars Humorous, startling and entertaining film.......2007-05-31

    Two beautiful women meet by chance when one is being throttled by her boyfriend in an alley. The other also suffering an abusive relationship picks up a pipe to aid the woman and accidentally kills the man. The women concoct a kidnapping to cover up the murder but nothing goes as planned in this dark Comedy of Errors meets Thelma and Louise; except with a happier ending... at least for the women. It is a humorous, startling and entertaining film with a lot of evil men who like to threaten, control and abuse women. The women are meek and compliant in the beginning but really come into their own by the end.

    4 out of 5 stars Like a celluloid `little baby nothing' .......2006-07-10

    Rachel Weisz's vulnerable intensity steals almost every scene and is loaded with pathos. As with Jude Law in `The Talented Mr. Ripley', the assumption that every character and viewer will fall slightly in love with her is the crux of the film, and because of her performance its justified. 'Beautiful Creatures' is set against a shattered urban backdrop that is oppressive in its ugliness, and Weisz's beauty offers a powerful contrast to this, and consequently creates a powerful bond between her and the audience which causes the viewer to be rooting for her as she tries to fight off the onslaught of male aggression. There is a disturbing undercurrent of sexual violence in the film, and the possibility of her being somehow violated is returned to with alarming frequency. You can't help but feel caught up in her plight and constantly rooting for some kind of revenge on the male perpetrators. I'm not sure if there was a feminist agenda to the script- the notion that pornography leads to violence is also revisited. The presentation of the male actors was extremely thought provoking and powerful. Although the ending might seem obvious, I felt it was satisfying and it broke the mould of many postmodern films which leave the ends untied in order to retain an air of mystery.

    5 out of 5 stars A Great Dark Comedy And Ms. Weisz Is So HOT!!!.......2005-09-24

    This movie is about two women who are caught in bad relationships until certain events occure to free them of their domestic shackles. These two ladies might be abused by their men but are in no way "Profesional Victims' as so many women in Hollywood movies are portrayed.Ms. Weisz is beautiful as always and has a very sexy English accent and a great flair for comedy which is why I give this movie 5 stars.

    5 out of 5 stars Sans Brad Pitt--still the better film.......2005-04-25

    Two young women, one exceptionally beautiful, are involved with highly abusive men. They seem unable to extract themselves from these indiviual violent relationships until events pull them apart. In spite of the violence, this is actually a darkly humorous movie, laugh out loud, and well worth seeing. There are no decent men in this picture, all are twisted or corrupt and violent. That is too bad. A sense of balance here would have been better.The acting is very good and the background of Glasgow is a pleasant change. There is a Thelma and Louise quality to it without the attributes of Brad Pitt. That said, this is the better film.

    4 out of 5 stars The movie has style.......2003-10-23

    Sometimes the plot is not important and sometimes neither is acting. I actually found the acting in this movie quite mediocre. Nonetheless, all this is not important. The movie has style and you can see this from the start. It is quite rare and I value this very much.

    4 out of 5 stars A look at Yukio Mishima.......2005-04-16

    This was reputedly Japan's first gay porn film. Director Nakamura Genji chooses an unusual story based upon recent Japanese history. Details of author Yukio Mishima and of his private army, the Shield Society's failed rebellion against the government in 1970 have long been shrouded in mystery and official secrecy in Japan - as Paul Schrader discovered during the making of "Mishima: a life in Four Chapters". This taboo is finally shattered with Beautiful Mystery, a film which only escaped censorship due to its underground status. Beautiful Mystery irreverently parodies the Mishima story, with the charismatic figure of Mitani Makio representing the legendary Shield Society leader in the final week of his life. Young student, Shinohara is fascinated by Makio's private army as they work out in a local gym. Filled with patriotic fervour, he decides to enlist. However, he soon discovers that after long hours of gruelling military training, the soldiers like nothing better than indulging in bed hopping and orgies. Makio eventually decides that the time has come for a coup d'etat, a coup that he and his men realise is doomed to certain failure. (...)

    4 out of 5 stars Amaze your friends!.......2002-02-16

    A real hoot!

    This would make a great triple bill with Schrader's bio-pic "Mishima" and Mishima's own (approx. 1/2 hour) "Rite of Love and Death." All three of these works deal somewhat with Mishima's fatal sexual obsession with Seppuku as Ritual Theatre.

    This one is a very funny all-male pink film, which evidently riled Japanese nationalists when it played successfully in theatres there. It's actually a well made and entertaining little curiosity that manages to be both fairly explicit (by American standards, anyway) and rather innocent at the same time.

    Look for Ren Osugi - who can be seen in a lot of "real" movies like "Beat" Takeshi's "Hana-Bi" ("Fireworks") - as the militaristic homosexual-cult leader.
