Shame - Mini Review


So err I finally got around to watching Shame last night.


Hmmm I dunno about that one. I mean it's a good arty/indie film but it wasn't something I was highly impressed by.


And I felt highly uncomfortable by Brandon's (Michael Fassbender) relationship with his sister Sissy (Carey Mulligan). I just remember saying over and over when they had scenes; please don't sleep with her! Please don't sleep with her!

To be honest if I wasn't told prior to watching, that it was about a man battling sex addiction I would never have known.

Kudos to Steve McQueen though, I'm glad it wasn't one of those typical films you see most black directors producing.


Oooh and I also liked the fact that the love interest was a black woman. Not something you see everyday.

Overall thoughts. It was okay, but I wasn't blown away.
