Sentiment: positive

Review: engages us in constant fits of laughter , until we find ourselves surprised at how much we care about the story , and end up walking out not only satisfied but also somewhat touched . 
Sentiment: positive

Review: dry of humor , verve and fun 
Sentiment: negative

Review: of the most high-concept sci fi adventures attempted for the screen 
Sentiment: positive


Review: while the transgressive trappings ( especially the frank sex scenes ) ensure that the film is never dull , rodrigues 's beast-within metaphor is ultimately rather silly and overwrought , making the ambiguous ending seem goofy rather than provocative .
