Glazer judges the men who die as he leers at Johansson in the exact same manner. Then there's a fire, and you wonder why you bothered.

Though Johansson barely speaks, she conveys her alien character's unfamiliarity with her body and her surroundings, as well as her growing awareness of what it means to be human, in every look and subtle motion.

Most of Under the Skin operates on an almost subconscious level. The truth is out there in Glazer's screenplay, which he co-wrote with Walter Campbell, but it's intuitive rather than didactic.

An exploration and subversion of the unstated theme of 'Species' and its ilk: the fear of female sexuality, and the fantasy scenarios that are all tied up in those fears.

Under the Skin is a movie that truly defies articulation. It's visceral; not violent or exploitative, but challenging and exotic.

Repetitive but creepy sci-fi horror flick likely to get under your skin.

Glacial in pace, skeletal in plot, and generally nasty, Jonathan Glazer's Under the Skin is a repetitive nightmare of drear and dread punctuated by moments of queasy-making horror.

I just hated, hated, hated every mind-numbingly pretentious minute of it.

One of the most polarizing movies in recent years.

It's admirable that Johansson should be so willing to go off the Hollywood grid, but the truth is, "Under the Skin" would have been a lot better if it wasn't so excruciatingly arty.

Minds will be blown to the four winds. And - fair warning - a percentage of American ticket buyers may find themselves exasperated and/or exiting early.

All this is initially fascinating, and then progressively less so.
