Something that happens rarely, a biography that should be made is made. The film has a lot to say, but the pacing had the capacity to throw me off a little bit. I'd recommend it to most everyone, though.

a very entertaining movie for the first hour or so, it starts to drag as it gets into the cliche biopic stage of the world turing against our protagonist, but picks up again. It really shows why what Kinsey did was so important for our country. The interview with the older woman near the end of the movie made my cry. And a great performance by the always wonderful Liam Neeson.

Overall Enjoyment: 30/40, Plot/Themes: 10/20, Cinematography/Direction: 10/20, Acting/Writing: 15/20

This movie gets big points from me for doing what the report was meant to do--illuminate the endless variations of sexuality without being judgmental or one-sided. It's an overwhelmingly sex-positive film that makes only the barest caveats and never depicts discrimination of any kind in a careless way, god bless it. The acting is excellent, too. My problem is that Kinsey never quite decides whether it wants to be about the man or the issue, and that's problematic for the narrative.

Esse era maluco

Neeson does a fine job of portraying the ever-quirky Kinsey. Characters such as this are fascinating because they view the world with such amazing detachment, yet are unaware of (or are unable to help) their own behavior. Kinsey's was especially ironic as he studied mating behaviors (admittedly of fruit flies) while being generally unable to engage in normal mating behaviors himself. The film is fascinating, funny, and sometimes painful. But most certainly not boring.
