Mini mainstream review of Irreversible
Irreversible trailer
The French made Irreversible is a pretty good movie that I will have a hard to telling you what it’s about without giving the plot away since it is filmed in reverse order. What I can tell you is there is a pretty good rape scene that lasts (guessing what seems like) about 5 minutes or so.
The movie is about a couple played by Vincent Cassel (my favorite French actor. He played the Russian boyfriend in Birthday Girl that Gimpers may recognize) & Monica Belucci whose emotional compass goes from one extreme to the polar opposite during the course of a day. From serenity and bliss to shock and horror (or visa-versa because of how the movie is filmed).
Gimp wise a long, graphic rape scene where Monica Bellucci encounters a pimp beating up on his prostitute. Seeing Monica, his attention shifts and she soon becomes the object of his aggression. She gets pushed to the ground, has her top undone and dress pushed up, and then gets raped anally. She tries to scream but the pimp is overpowering and covers her mouth with his hand. As mentioned, the rape last quite a long time until he climaxes. After he cums inside her, he sits back and rests a bit as Monica attempts to crawl away. He then gives her a severe beating as he kicks her numerous times and drives her head into the pavement. The scene ends but the end result is that Monica is sent into a coma due to the beating.
Entertainment wise I liked this movie quite a bit even though the beginning was extremely tortuous to watch, thinking at the time that this could quite possibly be the worst movie I had ever seen. If you can get past the first 15 minutes or so it really does turn out to be a very good movie IMO. Throw in some nice nude scenes, including a blow job, and it’s not bad. ;-) All I can say is the French know how to dress up their movies! Good for a B-.
Gimp wise, no bondage but does have a first rate rape scene. Grade B-
