Barbacoa

Really very well done with comic quid pro quos and very funny dialogues but extremely black and gory humor. Some scenes can be very disturbing for sensitive people. It seems to have been made by French people especially for French people and not for American prudes. If you don't like it, definitely don't go see it and don't comment. You have been warned.

"Vegan's Ham" was produced in 2022. This is gore and comedy. One day, a man who works at a butcher kills a radical vegan who attacks his shop. He turns vegans into meat and sells it. The meat becomes very popular, so he start to attack vegans.

At first, I thought this film is about the action of radical vegans, but the content is very comical and the atmosphere is not so heavy.

But the action of the main characters are truly terrible, they do what a human being must never do. So people who value ethics should avoid watching this film. I think it is quite original and interesting that the story is of a couple's relationship improving and their lives becoming richer through murdering. It's also interesting that the way the characters are killed is a little disappointing. I don't really like the ending. Since it's a comedy film, I want it to remain a comedy until the end. Finally, there is a dog in this film, but the dog doesn't die.

This film has all of the best elements for an amazing dark comedy and puts them together spectacularly. It's truly an excellent script executed flawlessly by the actors. From the gangster hip hop playing during killing scenes to the initial nervous trepidation of the protagonist developing into confidence, it takes you on a laugh-filled journey.

I think a lot of the negative reviews may be vegans taking it too seriously, but this is a brilliant parody that deserves a much higher rating. The actors were cast so well, and really helped to enhance the comedy. The brilliant script is probably the best part of this film. Clever and subtle, without being preachy. One of the best dark comedies I've seen in ages.

I've watched it at MOTEL X Film Festival and I felt surprised about this French movie.

The plot would be so disturbing if was just a serious drama. Some Like It Rare knows how to transform the disturbing and gruesome elements in comedy.

I've never laughed so much in a movie theater like when I was watching this movie. It's full of funny scenes and the humour always work... Except if you don't like dark humour, because in that case, Some Like it Rare isn't for you.

The only problem is the ending. It finishes too fast. I think would be so much better if they added a couple of scenes before the ending.

The movie already has a lot of titles - I wouldn't be surprised if it gets this one too somewhere (hey pass on some money if you use that! Just saying). Kidding aside - well not entirely, because the movie thrives on humor. Dark humor, but humor nonetheless. And is built on broken and fragile relationships.

The director is also the main actor in this. And while he had an even funnier hairstyle in the video message he sent to the filmfest I attended, he still looks funny and trustworthy. Which of course is a great contradiction to all the terrible things that he is "forced" to do.

If you are easily offended and triggered the movie may not be for you. The movie also says a lot about us as a society. The way we treat each other - there are a few themes hidden inside the movie that it explores quite nicely.
