365 DAYS: Speechless with the “top 1 trending” disaster that promotes gender-based violence
Poland’s 365 Days is a ridiculous act when it promotes illegal acts of coercion and instills in the audience’s minds misleading ideas about gender-based violence.
Eye-rolling with the sex scene of 365 DAYS: Polish movie known as 50 Shades of Gray!
Released to global audiences on June 7, the Polish film 365 Days (Vietnamese title: 365 Days With You) is gathering “a basket” of extremely bad criticism from both critics and audiences. mass audience for many reasons, including promoting and romanticizing the issue of gender-based violence.
At a time when the COVID-19 epidemic is still seriously breaking out, movie lovers have no choice but to turn to online platforms to “relieve their sadness”. However, not every movie that is “climbing” on the trending charts deserves to receive high quality scores. 365 Days is the “brightest” example of this year when it reached the top 1 trending on Netflix despite being strongly opposed.
Showing off cheap hot scenes like “high school movies”
It’s no exaggeration to say that every 10 minutes, viewers will see a hot scene in 365 Days. The lovemaking photos of the main male-female couple were taken everywhere, from the bed, bathroom, living room, on the boat and even the fountain, even going through all kinds of positions and amusements.
Many experts have spoken out harshly about the overwhelmingness of 18+ nude scenes that are no different from adult movies, even a review on Rotten Tomatoes frankly said: “High school movies look more realistic.” This pile of trash!”.
On the other hand, countless depraved scenes cannot cover up the boring, bad and illogical content of 365 Days, because right from the beginning the relationship between the male lead Massimo (Michele Morrone) and the female lead Laura (Anna‑ Maria Sieklucka) was extremely wrong and went against the law and common moral standards.
Romanticizing Stockholm syndrome is extremely ridiculous
Adapted from the novel by Blanka Lipinska, 365 Days depicts how Laura was kidnapped by the handsome mafia boss Massimo, who then gave her 365 days to love him and want to be with him. It sounds like a common “3-cent love story” narration, but the condemnable thing about the movie that just brought in a “rotten” score of 0% is that it promotes Stockholm syndrome.
Stockholm syndrome basically describes the psychological symptoms of a victim gradually developing feelings of affection, empathy and love for their kidnapper, even though they always commit depraved and harmful acts. to hostages. In 365 Days, Laura initially objected to Massimo’s unreasonable proposal, but gradually she also had feelings for him, specifically after… he saved him from a drowning incident that led to lovemaking. “forget heaven and earth” on a yacht.
In fact, there have been many films with similar themes, such as King Kong or Beauty and the Beast (although there are still many controversial opinions). However, no depiction has ever been as absurd and made viewers excited as 365 Days, when it turned a successful businesswoman like Laura into a crazy fool in the face of physical and mental abuse. Massimo’s god, then declared that she loved him without any further developments or evidence.
Promotes gender-based violence, sexual violence, and degrades women
As mentioned, 365 Days builds a female protagonist with extremely strange psychological changes, a genius mind who has just acquired a billion-dollar hotel chain before the admiring eyes of the business world, but in the end to be degraded to the extreme in a forced, one-sided relationship, and then admit that he loved, loved sincerely and purely?
Spending time with Massimo, Laura was continuously tortured by him in all aspects, forced into sexual intercourse that smelled of BDSM (m
a form of role-playing or lifestyle choice between two or more individuals to create sexual tension, pleasure and release), or having to watch another beautiful woman “use her mouth” to satisfy Massimo while tied up tight to the bed. Never before has the film world witnessed such a ridiculously tantalizing scene, where all women’s rights have been erased, the female characters have no voice, and no way to escape or resort to the law. , but eventually succumbed to the infamous boss.
In addition, the opening of 365 Days also has a scene where Massimo forces a female flight attendant to “use her mouth” on him in front of many other people’s eyes on the plane. This scene has made many viewers uncomfortable, and even made many people think of another painful problem – rape. Too many crimes in a movie that is likened to a “cheaper version” of another boycotted movie “filled with porn elements” like 50 Shades of Gray.
365 Days is completely unworthy of the commercial success it has achieved, especially when it continuously holds high rankings on online movie charts, which always emphasize direction and propaganda. for viewers. There are still two more films left to complete the trilogy true to the original, and then where will the world cinema go when this Polish disaster will be the door leading to unrealistic dreams, through which downplaying crimes and violence, making equality movements look like jokes in the eyes of filmmakers or authors behind countless similar projects.
