Disappointment after watching "The Substance," a film I found to be underwhelming despite its positive reviews. They criticize the lack of engaging narrative, noting that the film relies heavily on gratuitous nudity and excessive gore, putting a view to the beauty industry. The film's focus on shock value over meaningful content is seen as a regression for the horror genre, leaving myself feeling both bored and dissatisfied. Ultimately, I advise potential viewers to avoid the film if they seek substance in their cinematic experiences. If you decided to watch this film suit yourself, wasted 2 hours and 22mins of my time.
