Review of Bodies Bodies Bodies (2022) by Theredsky — 15 Sep 2022

Another banger from A24 while also being surprisingly hilarious. This is a very engaging movie from start to end. The plot moves pretty quickly and doesn’t take too much time to stop and do other things that aren’t fully relevant to the story minus one or two scenes.

All the characters are really fun and interesting to follow. Some get much more screen time than others but their interactions were hilarious. Every actor does a great job but Rachel Sennott was the major stand out here.

She gave easily the best performance in the film and was definitely the funniest character in the whole film. It was actually kind of fun to watch a movie where every character is a jerk. The story and script was probably the best thing about this movie.

It felt unique in how it took a very conventional story and flipped it on its head with a Gen Z twist. It’s a fun little parody of Gen Z while also treating the characters like real people with real emotions and not bland and basic shells that resemble characters for the sake of a cheap joke.

The ending may throw some people off but I thought it was great. The dramatic reveal about what happened and why this all started was very out of left field and it worked very well for what the film was trying to do.

If you’re a fan of A24 movies or want a fun murder mystery film then go check this out.
