"Substance" might be getting stellar reviews, but honestly, I found it underwhelming. Despite all the praise, this movie didn’t work for me. I understand the focus on self-esteem and the deeper psychological layers it was aiming for, but I just couldn’t connect with it—and the ending left me more baffled than anything else.
As for it being labeled a "horror" movie? That’s laughable. This is more like a dark, gruesome drama at best. The horror label feels misleading and oversells what this film actually delivers. Anyway, end of rant—thanks for reading!
