This was Film of the Year. Maybe the best Horror in a decade.
Ah but thats the thing. It was Demi Moore the whole time. They were one, remember there is no separation, they're one. They transfer their consciousness. Demi Moore hits herself screaming at herself to stop being addicted to the younger body and taking time from herself. At then end before the final switch Margaret Qualley says "I can't go back in there". They aren't separate but she acts differently when within each body because she is reacting to how the outside world and society responds to her differently depending on how she looks.
Remember this is an addiction movie. Being young is like a drug, like she is high. She is addicted to that experience, and becomes bitter whenever she is returned to the older body.
But they are one, they are one consciousness. But it is showing how one can change depending on their circumstances and how they are perceived.
Very good explanation and arguments
The camera work when Dennis quaid was eating Shrimp had me even more close to throwing up than the last act and that’s SAYING SOMETHING LOL
shit is going to drive people with mouth noise issues insane lol
@@WeWatchedAMovie oh absolutely. I was cringing in my seat so many times. Especially the close up of the needles too.
I walked out of the theatre after 20/30 minutes. Between the eating ASMR, the annoying font, and the techno music… couldn’t hang lol
Did you quote “tubthumping” in a tub? 😂
lmao excellent observation
Just wanted to say as well that I really appreciate the coverage as of late and that I really love coming to your reviews first over other RUclipsrs. Love the honesty and the breakdowns.
Really appreciate that man! Thank you!
@@WeWatchedAMovie absolutely. Looking forward to future reviews. And I can’t wait for nosferatu in December
I think she was conscious while she was Sue, that's why she was so depressed when she had to be Elizabeth again. The thing is, young people are dumb and selfish and do things they shouldn't without a thought of how it will affect them later.
But she was shocked at what she was saying on the tv, right? Which would lead you to believe she wasn't conscious?
@WeWatchedAMovie that's true, there was more of a disconnect as it went on. But that also could be her trying to distance herself from the "old lady" she didn't want to be anymore.
@WeWatchedAMovie the director mentioned the subconscious was the same. I'd compare walking up with the other body to waking up with a hangover after getting drunk the night before. You experience the things you did the night before, some things might be clear but other things are fuzzy, some things are blacked out, especially the extreme things, if that makes sense. It could be a stretch, but that's how I interpret it.
The editing reminds me of Requiem for A Dream!
So excited to see your review about this! I saw it a few nights ago and I loved it
hells yeah!
That last act was INSANE. Just when I thought it was gonna end it kept going and going and getting more crazy. But I loved it. And I really hope this film gets Oscar consideration
So gnarly. Demi Moore deserves it she was a trooper
@@WeWatchedAMovie can you imagine how many hours in the makeup chair her and qualley had for this film 😂
‘Single use only’ - follow the instructions! My god..follow the instructions!
After watching the movie my immediate thought was “this was a gnarly croissant… but I loved it” lol. That’s why your review was highly anticipated, gracias Mike!
And happy early birthday! I hope you have a great one. 🎂
I’m celebrating mine on Tuesday 😬
Thank you! Down with (85%) of crossaints! and happy birthday!
You have made my day! Thank you!
8/10 for me. It was the right type of croissant. I liked the rules they laid out of for the substance and the sort of world they build around it. The finale reminded me of Carrie (if it was a crypt episode that was shot by David lynch).
Right type of croissant is exactly right
Sue and Elisabeth are 100% the same person. The old guy in the dinner recognized her because he’s the same guy that let her know about The Substance. She even remembered the biker dude when she walked into him.
The whole movie is about self hatred. She’s old and washed up and wants to be Sue. But when she’s not Sue, she resents her as she’s just a reminder.
They really messed up on that element. I get the meaning of the movie but there's many times where she has no idea what Sue had said or done until she was awake.
@@WeWatchedAMovie To each their own, but I think it really works. What times are you referring to?
@@gavinevans1687 When Elisabeth messed up the apartment with food, Sue was shocked.
I don't think Elisabeth "remembered" the biker dude. She knew about the note and helmet and made the connection.
@@1UpJohn It's like if you go out to a bar with friends the night before a big test. You enjoyed having fun, but when you wake up, you hate the choices that nighttime you made. Same idea here.
At first glance of the thumbnail I thought you were in a jail cell lol thankfully it’s only a bathroom!🚽 🤣
lmao oh thank god if Im doing a review from jail it means ive beent here a while.
I heard a fire station hose was used for the spraying of the blood sequence at the end.
that's dope af that was cool as hell
I love 'The Substance' so much! The effects, acting, cinematography and music were incredible! The third act is definitely divisive but I loved it. That creature scared me so much, I had to watch that reveal through my fingers haha!
And yes, Elizabeth is in Sue's body when she switches. But the problem that these two had is they both have confidence/self hatred issues; Elizabeth sees her old body and hates it, but then is jealous of her new body when they switch because of the success she put Sue through. Plus, despite the company constantly reminding Sue/Elizabeth that they are the same person, they never saw each other as the same as we see from the phone calls. So that connection was cut by herself.
I apologize if I haven't explained this very well (i'm not always the best with explaining things), but I'm happy to talk about this more - I could talk about this film for ages haha!
Really enjoyed the video too!
It does seem weird. Why have the young body if you arent mentally present to enjoy it
It’s ok. It’s a suitable theme. Loads of substance from a stranger’s bathtub
Thanks for the upload mike!!!
Thanks for stoppin by pal!
The monster arc is absolute perfection and completely won me over this movie
Nice! Enjoyed hearing your thoughts on this one. I really loved it. It’s funny you mentioned Tales from the Crypt since Demi Moore was in an early episode. Been a fan of the channel for a while. Hope all is well! Awesome review.
Oh shit you're right, she was! Great pull man! and thank you!
Remember what the guy on the phone kept saying. They are one. So they do experience what each other does at least on some level. Remember Demi said she’s all I have
Right but why was she so shocked all the time to find out what she'd been doing?
Saw this last night. Brilliant film.
Sit center, third row. Get your face melted
Mike, you could still pass for your late 20s. "The Substance" is crazy. I will think of this film whenever I see the Hollywood Walk of Fame. I also won't be eating shrimp for a very long time.
This is my favorite movie of the year so far I mean this film is unhinged in the best way, that ending is like an acid trip gone wrong in the best way lol 😆 idk it's just perfect and bat shit crazy with an amazing story and Demi Moore give her an Oscar please
You look like us in Flor-Duh right now, waiting for Hurricane Helene to come through! Lol
damn hurricane ruined my trip to Alabama to see blink! lol Stay safe!
Nice one! Loved the movie, gotta agree the third act dragged a little but the bloodbath made it worth it
I just got done watching it. This might be the creepiest movie I've ever seen
Makes me think of nutty professor.
Or Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.
0:28 tubby time indeed 😌
lmao dude I actually looked for a clip of that video and couldn't find it. I swear it wasn't just a dream
I think this film did such a good job at using sounds and visuals. There wasn’t much dialogue but I was never bored and I have never had a movie make me nervous in my seat like this one. What’s also cool is I want to know more about the substance and I think they could make a prequel to this.
A lot of fun things can happen in a bathtub 😜 getting clean of course 👀
This could have been a Tales From The Crypt movie if they still did that.
Not richard simmons. Jane fonda
I laughed way too hard at the beginning of this
In my 20's and 30's I loved gore movies, the worse the better. Now that I am 46 I can't stand them anymore. Look, I hope the movie is successful because I heard very great things, which will be great for the cinema, but I'll skip this one (for now)
I get it. Some movies you gotta be in the mood for.
Saw this on Sunday... cant wait to see it again
I watched this a few days ago, and wow, the movie was a wild one lol. I liked it a lot, though! Just a lot different of a film than I'm used to watching, that's all, and I guess the movie did its' job well because it did make me feel uncomfortable. The movie was well acted, looked beautiful and the pace of the film worked well for me for the most part! Great review, Mike! The film was a solid 8/10 for me.
Thanks so much buddy! Def made me feel the same way lol
This movie was so messed up I loved it immensely!
Reviews from the porcelain throne. It must have been burrito night
Hey Im in a tub tbf but it does look like I am on a toilet. fuck lol
Greatest intro to a review I've heard
Mike if the guy from creep is holding you hostage in said bathroom blink twice....
Great review im fasho checking this out 🔥🖤
Hope you enjoy it!
Why would anyone take The Substance? KICK!
39?! You look great for 39. I mean 39 is still young, but you look 29.
I appreciate that!
Yeah this is a masterpiece. Seeing it again tonite.
hahahahaha bro couldn't wait to review this one
In regards to the problem you were having, I think since they're one person, there is no separation. Right? So, she's still living vicariously through Sue, because they share the same consciousness. The reason she took the substance was to change her life. Well she can't do what she wanted in her old body anymore, or so she thinks, therefore Sue is born. But as she starts having fun in Sue, as Sue, she never wants to go back to Demi Moore's character. Because that body is limited, and this one isn't. Therefore, she ultimately gets the negative side effects from the Substance because she's neglecting herself by thinking she's separate.
Okay, if she's thinking she's seperate but isn't than I get it. That was pretty murky though for sure!
@@WeWatchedAMovie well I think going into she understands she's not separated, and that they are the same person. But the longer she experiences Sue, the less she cares about Elisabeth and then we get what we get lol
Intriguing
She WAS conscious as both...right?
Not the way I saw it. Remember she was getting all her information about what the girl said by watching the talk show.
@@WeWatchedAMovieyes she was. Use the analogy of drug addiction. She’s full of hormones and stupid as sue.
This is what confused me as well… I believe she is but as she continues to use the younger self longer she begins to create a delusion and addiction. Which in retrospect makes you forget your old self. That’s my take, but I think the film could’ve done a better job describing it because towards the end they’re both conscious and it really confused me.
I'm hearing that hurricane helene destroyed alot of western Carolina? I hope you and yours, are all ok brother! I'm pretty sure that's where yall are! 👊🏼
It was PERFECT.
I love absolutely loved this movie so much I saw it twice! Definitely the best movie of 2024 for me and the best horror movie I’ve seen in a LONG time. Have you seen the Tales from the Crypt episode that Demi Moore was in? I loved her in that too, so it was interesting to see her in this movie. Now I’m patiently waiting for some Neca figures to add to my collection lol!
Awesome review ❤
Hey, thanks!
Thank you! I thought the exact same thing, what the hell was the point of agreeing to doing it? I thought she lived in both bodies, then turns out it’s two completely different people.
I do wonder if people will grow to dislike this movie the more they think about it and the less fresh out of the theater they get. Just because there are good aspects of the film, doesn’t mean all of its issues should be blindly overlooked or written off as being on purpose somehow.
I agreed with you thinking this would have worked way better as a short movie, but that’s a bad sign when you would have to cut out 90 minutes to make it better.
2nd movie I’ve ever walked out on.
I literally saw this around an hour ago. That third act reminded me a little bit of 80s cult classic Society. Absolutely batshit crazy. When the end credits ran I literally just went “HA! Okay then!”
What a wild ride that was. Demi Moore is still gorgeous. Just googled her and I can’t believe she’s 61. What a GILF!
Very stylish, very squelchy, very nightmare inducing. 8/10. Enjoyed it
hell yes. Good for her!
Huh your in the bathroom 🤔
I'll see.. 👍
Happy birthday weekend
thanks buddy!
The ending went too overboard for me.
I agree
Looking for better recap the. The 1 I seen and see if her turn j to the strange thing is just gross
Alot of horror news out. Some of it kinda bad. From saw x sequel to scream 7. Where the vids?
We talked about Scream in the livestream and doing a lot of October prep!
😂😂
Truly a spectacle of body horror long overdue. A film inappropriate for children and cowards.
don't forget to wipe mike
You are so good-looking
Well thanks!
