Video Review – Irreversible: Straight Cut perfects Gaspar Noé’s shock art masterpiece

February 15, 2023 by EJ Moreno

EJ Moreno reviews the Irreversible: Straight Cut…

Irreversible, 2003.

Directed by Gaspar Noé.
Starring Monica Bellucci, Vincent Cassel, and Albert Dupontel.

“One of the most infamous films in history is finally restored and coming to the U.S. with a brand new director’s re-cut of the film that puts the notorious revenge tale in chronological order.”

We see a master of shock art return with a new version of one of his most infamous films; Gaspar Noé is releasing Irreversible: The Straight Cut, a re-cut of the original French film. With this new version, Noé takes his iconically twisted tale and presents it in an even better way. 

Critic EJ Moreno dares to call this even better than the original in a new glowing ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ retro review. Check out the review below, and be sure to follow us on YouTube for more reviews, exclusive interviews, and other video content…

Irreversible is opening theatrically on February 10th at the IFC Center/NYC and the Landmark’s Nuart/LA, with more cities to be announced soon.
