    the thing id its ok but its not as great as some people make it to be Also the fact that the two versions are not linked with anything .the originature or what ever its called is losing herself for someone else to live her dream . she doesnt get any benifit so if only they made it to be as the samoe person living 2 diffrent realities biweekly it would've been more intresting to see how they will damage themselves not thinking about whats to come and it would've made "the fight" scene more intresting

    Though a variation on "fountain of youth" premises we've seen before, it's a particularly creative and evocative twist on these concepts. It has more of a minimalist approach to special effects, but is shot in such a compelling way where every effect and shot counts. Indeed, this film reenforces the saying less is more.

    High expectations for this film after all of the nominations. Kudos to Demi for her performance and the cinematography was incredible but that’s about it. The longer it went, the worse it got. Two hours and 40 minutes I wish I could have back.

    I COULD NOT LOOK AWAY. Demi Moore like you've NEVER seen her. She deserved all the accolades she received. Margaret Qualley also Great. NOT a movie for Everyone. I, however, thought it was fantastic. Fascinating. Bizarre. SAD. Gory. Weird. Different. Unique. It will stay with me Forever. Probably in my nightmares too.

    I don't get the good rating, this movie is stupid, senseless and insane. If you like this film, you have lost control of your life.

    “The Substance” is a super intriguing film. It’s got that dark, twisted vibe, mixing body horror with some deep commentary on beauty and aging. Demi Moore really brings it with her role—she’s chillingly good. The movie takes you down some creepy paths, but it’s not just about the horror; it makes you think about the crazy lengths people go to for fame and youth. It’s got this slow burn that really hooks you, and by the end, you’re left with a lot to think about. Definitely worth a watch if you’re into something different and thought-provoking.

    This movie is a stomach churning disaster. Hollywood is truly dead and living in hell.

    original, unheard story. Some things though didn't make too much sense
  • Rating: 2 out of 5 stars
    The whole movie was really good and held my attention. You really had no idea what would happen next. Yet the end really felt like the writer gave up or just pulled the ending from a hat of possible endings. There was a fine spot that the movie should have ended, it just doesn't and gets stupid. very disappointing

    The movie does well to lock you in and keep you guessing what will happen next. Surprisingly good and well acted with a unique approach from the director and director of photography. I was pleasantly surprised
