I've been trying to forget some parts of the movie since I saw it. XD (I have SO MUCH second-hand humiliation at the porn on the work computer thing!)
I think Richard Corliss said it well when he said this about the movie:
What's really off-putting about the movie is not the dark energy of the sexual encounters but their bleakness. They are arid, not juicy, and a challenge for even the most avid voyeur to get excited about. Filmed in elegant, unrelenting long takes with very few traditional reaction shots, Shame unspools like a documentary on the rutting of feral animals. ... We see him dwelling in a sybarite's dream world of constant sex but, clearly, not having a great time. Beyond that, he's a enigma.
The best part of the movie (for me) was seeing how hot Charles Xavier's boyfriend is. The movie itself....mehhh...think I'd rather see XMFC 100x than Shame one more time. >_> <_<
P.S. The computer looks awesome!
