Smoreni Zmaj A drama about a young man, born with a perfect sense of smell, trying to create a perfect perfume, a fragrance that will allow humans to, at least for a moment, touch Paradise. The story, at the same time deeply romantic and extremely morbid, so perfectly told from the angle of the serial killer, that you must make an effort not to cheer for him. The film is perfect to the tiniest detail, and the last two scenes, the scene of "execution" and the scene of "suicide", are among the most powerful movie scenes I have ever seen.10/10

little_miss_sunshine_44 I'm still not entirely sure how I feel about this film. It's captivating, but at the same time almost too slow and convoluted. It's beautiful, but at the same time disgusting and terrifying. There's almost too much going on, and yet there's barely any dialogue from the protagonist (does he ever speak??) ... and yet, he still manages to express himself and his thoughts to the viewer fairly clearly, even though a lot of his actions have to be deconstructed by the viewer to figure out why he behaves in such a way... It's very very artistic (in a good way), but it's a different "artistic" than I'm used to. It's not quirky, warm, or "endearing"... it's in a whole other realm and I don't know if I'll ever see anything else like it (I kind of hope I don't...) It's an extremely interesting film and I would definitely recommend it, however, years after I initially watched it, I still feel slightly sick and disturbed thinking about this film... It has definitely left an impression. Not the kind of film I'd go back and watch a 2nd time as it still kind of haunts me, but the fact that it has had such an impact on me is testament to the film. Go ahead and give it a watch, but don't expect the "artyness" of the film to be warm, inviting, or endearing... It's haunting, revealing of human nature and desire, and mind-boggling. At times it all becomes too much, you just have to hang in there and take a while to process the film after viewing before garnering a fixed opinion of it (it's taken me over 7 years and I'm STILL insure of how I feel). I'm surprised the rating on this isn't higher (even though I've only scored a 7). I assume there are countless people out there who would adore this film. I just think I watched this film when I was too young (around 15), and it has scared and scarred me a little. Now that I'm older I can appreciate it more, but it still leaves a dark and twisted aftertaste which makes me cringe at the thought of watching it again. I realise I probably should watch this film again (with my newfound maturity and outlook on life/the world), but I honestly don't think I can bring myself to do so... I just wish I didn't watch it when I was still young enough to be afraid of the bloody dark. I thought it was a rom-com!!!! Overall, I think this film is horribly good and deserves to be watched by everyone. It's too maniacal, thought-provoking, raw, and twisted to be loved by all, but that's also what makes this film stand out. I can see that this film would go straight over some peoples' heads and be labeled as trash. You just have to pay attention and have a "think outside the box" mentality... Just watch the film and you'll understand why I'm so conflicted about this bloody film!!!!

majken-agerbo I have a special place in my heart for this movie. It's a very interesting story and the plot follows a great rate where you keep getting more and more invested in his choices. The characters a beautifully written and you really sense from the beginning that the story is in the characters. Furthermore it's though provoking and has a great ending. It's a little dark and maybe a tiny bit on the nasty side, but it also keeps the mystery going until the very end. Great movie, definitely worth a watch!

Thanos Karagioras "Perfume: The Story of a Murderer" is a crime fantasy movie in which we watch the story of a boy who was born with a talent, his talent is an unnerving sense of smell. This talent of his is going to be the most important obtain of his in his whole life. His main goal is to capture and save all of the smells that are around him or exist in the world. From all the smells around him, he is beckoned to the scent of woman's soul so, at this point his goal as well as his whole life changes. And his work takes a very different - dark turn while he is trying to make the ultimate scent.I have to admit that when I read about this movie and saw the trailer I expected more from it when I watched it. The only thing that I liked from this movie was the interpretations of Dustin Hoffman who played as Giuseppe Baldini and Alan Rickman who played Richis. The leading actor of this movie Ben Whishaw who played as Jean-Baptiste Grenouille made an average interpretation. Also the average direction which was made by Tom Tykwer didn't save this movie.Finally, I have to say that "Perfume: The Story of a Murderer" is an average movie but it can be seen by everyone. It's not something extraordinary, it has a simple plot with some good interpretations which were made by its cast and an average written script. If you want to watch this movie just don't expect much from it and don't have high expectations or hopes.
