Boxing Helena (1993)
1/10
I really didn't enjoy this...
4 June 2004
Not going to say much really, at the time i saw this i was viewing 3 or 4 films a week and it is one of only 2 films i have watched that i considered walking out of half way through (the other being Carry On Columbus).

This film made me feel very uneasy, i felt like i was watching something i shouldn't if you know what i mean. And I came away wishing i hadn't.

To be honest, i think this says more about me than the film itself - the premise was well advertised and i knew what to expect, so i should have known better than to buy a ticket for it.

It didn't appeal to me, but i suppose there is an audience for it, i am just not able to appreciate it on any level other than it's technical merit - it is well made and well acted, but i found the subject matter questionable enough to make me consider walking out.
