Dir: Oskar Roehler
2006
****
Brutally honest and not afraid to kick a few taboos in the balls, Oskar Roehler's adaptation of Michel Houellebecq's controversial novel Atomised is the ultimate film about 'all those things we don't want to talk about'. It never declares its self-importance or even declares it is right, in fact it's more about honesty being the best policy via Bondage, human cloning and masturbating over your own mother. Honestly, it's much better than it sounds. Tongue is in cheek when needed and it is very funny throughout, the often overlooked Moritz Bleibtreu is great in the lead and the beautiful Franka Potente is brilliant as always.
