Summary: n00p review
Review: I am a 2nd year highschool student and i came home after a long weekend and turn on the tv. i started to watch the movie called "May", at first it was kind of odd, but then i rented it and watched it and started to understand it, this is an excelent film that uses a lot of different and effective film techniques such as montage and flashbacks, the filmer is very talented and the actors and actresses really adapt to their characters very well, so you really feel what they are feeling, it is very grafic which grabs your attention very well, overall this film is incredible.

Summary: It's always the timid ones...
Review: While most were out watching the crop of predictable horror movies (rewritten movie scripts from the 70's and 80's), this gem of a movie quietly slipped under the radar. Unfortunate, as it is significantly better than the brain-dead slasher films currently in release. May is a horror movie with a human face. Imagine a deep examination of Stephen King's "Carrie," and you'll have an idea where this movie is going.May has trouble making friends. Having spent the majority of her childhood ridiculed and tormented, the seeds are sown for May to be quiet, insecure, and alone. Her overprotective mother feels giving her daughter a doll would help, yet she keeps it in a glass case with strict orders not to open. Enclosed and inaccessable, it serves only to deepen her inability to communicate with others. As an adult, this painfully shy waif (Angela Bettis), finds herself working at a veterinary clinic and attracted to an auto mechanic (Jeremy Sisto). Her attempts to get him to notice her existence are both painful and amusing. You'll find yourself cheering her on in her success. Upon deeper examination, we find Adam to be kind of a slacker, with a taste for art-house sleaze and, as he puts it, "weird girls." Between him, her parents, and the other characters she meets in her life, including her inept boss, and a trashy co-worker, you start to wonder if she really is that odd in comparison. Directed by Lucky McKee, May is a film that succeeds in spite of its obvious low budget. Filled with symbolism and allegory, the story works; with one glaring exception. When things start going wrong and violence ensues, the attempts at realistic violence end up looking more campy then serious. There are some disturbing scenes that are pulled off incredibly well in spite of the budget, and the film ends on a bloody note with slight thoughtful contemplation. By this time, though, any sense of morality has fallen by the wayside and you'll either be emotionally touched or hysterical with laughter. Still, May is not without its sense of irony and Angela Bettis plays a powerful, fragile character in a believable descent into madness. Perhaps it's good this movie wasn't so successful. Shy girls would have even more trouble getting dates.

Summary: May will stitch you...
Review: May was born with a congenital defect and her protective mother isolates her from her peers in order to protect her from ridicule. In addition, she gives May a doll which she befriends. This doll becomes May's best friend and remains her best friend into young adulthood as she serves as an aid for a veterinarian. In the process she finds "Mr. Right", however, she lacks social skills to remain in the relationship and this leads her into a bizarre and twisted journey. May is a two-sided story that is both full of compassion, but also as dark as the most hurtful resentment. It provides an opportunity to see the ambiguity within a human being, which leads to a pretty good cinematic experience.

Summary: Do not see this movie,
Review: When I was listening to everyones top ten list, May was mentioned. I like horror flicks so I thought " wow, a horror flick that has plot?" As I watched this, i liked the character, May, who is a quiet, misunderstood girl who needs a companion. Well she starts getting freakier and sicker and by the end, it's stupid and gross. She is a terrible character, you don't like her anymore, plus, there is one scene that made me want to cut out my eyes(not that part, the other part.) don't listen to the cool art kids who say this is a great movie, go buy battle royale at ebay. That is a movie!!!!

Summary: I don't get it....
Review: i have to admit...this is not the worst movie i have ever seen. its alright, but much to long, and has a...well it has some what of a story...that kind of falls apart! about that last 30 minutes of this movie is gory (well more bloody than gory) and a little bit creepy. the rest of it is just drama and...wierd! i have no desire to watch it again but i would if i had to. if you are into the slow moving psycho movie, then you will probably like this movie. but the part where she cut out her eye made me sick! but the human doll (made out of human parts!) was very cool! put it was [unrealistic] how it came to life!

Summary: Creepy
Review: I don't want to give this movie higher than three stars because, as I envision it, about half of humanity is going to see it as disgusting, and the other half, brilliant. I see both sides of the argument. You'll probably only like the movie if you can get into the cannibal sex scene. Who would think that eating eachother (literally) would be a turn on?

Summary: Childhood Lost
Review: The twisted innocence of the main character made me fall in love with this movie. Anyone of us that has felt vunerable, broken and too small for this world at any point in time can relate to the emotions of sweet May. She has been without friends, much human contact and no one to love. The further from society she becomes, the harder it is for others to relate to her.
This movie has become one of my favorites in the horror genre, and I have been watching horror since I was a child.
This movie has inspired me in many ways, I have recomended it to all of my friends and even strangers.

Summary: May's patchy lil' world...
Review: This is a good eerie thriller that has "indie" written all over it: from the way it's filmed and the actors cast to the soundtrack used and the overall atmosphere.
May, a "weirdo"-extraordinaire, is a young woman struggling to somehow fit in this world. Having grown up with a doll as her only friend she finds it extremely difficult to interact with live human beings. Her only apparent existence in the "outside" world is her job, and that happens to be a workplace where the weirdness doesn't smoothen over as it is an animal hospital with a doctor that speaks his very own version of english and a lesbian co-worker that sees May as her next conquest. But May has other plans as she becomes fixated on Adam, a cool slacker who seems to fit May's ambitions for a first boyfriend. Adam, who as he confesses "likes weird" does fall for May (after May puts up a whole plan to get him) only to discover that May is a little bit...too weird even for his tastes (Adam is a guy who's at the time finishing a small film of his that tends on the quite gory side). Adam splits and things begin to unravel inside May's volcanic world.
Predictably, May doesnt take to this lightly and after a brief stint wth her lesbian colleague she finds herself "betrayed" again as she realises that her new hope for a love source turns out to be only caring for the sex part which she practices with several partners. It's time then for that inner volcano of May's to explode. If people are set on betraying her and if she can't find someone who will love her and be her friend then she will create one. May decides to play God complete with wrath and imagination. The end of the film which i wont reveal to its fullest detail is quite brutal, gory and eerie. And the whole movie alltogether is an underground gem that somehow got lost in the latest releases but which has to be discovered for any fan of the horror or thriller genre. This film has a number of things going for it that make it special: firstly and most notably the incredible performance of Angella Bettis. She's a glove-fit for May's role and I'd really have to think to find a performance that celebrates eerieness, weirdness and fear-emission the way Bettis manages. This is a role that has to be seen. But she's not alone in her efforts nor does she carry the movie solely on her shoulders. Adam, played by Jeremy Sisto is an equally great outing. Sisto seems totally natural in his role as the womanizer slacker, and he is analogously interesting as a character as May. Same goes though for May's lesbian colleague who is also terrifically convincing. This movie rolls the high rails of "classic" for almost the distance but the scriptwriter loses his focus in the last minutes of the film as this whole tragedy gets resolved in a butchery way. This is the only reason i deem this a 4-star film: the plotholes towards the end. But other than that this is strong stuff. Everybody involved here does an arguably great job in putting together an eerie-atmosphere masterpiece. Pity they didn't stay cautious with the details in the end but this takes very little away from the film. Very reccommendable for horror-thriller afficionados, not so for the rest whom -i suspect- might find this film disturbing at the very least. But speaking of that, it's the "disturbingness" that will have a hold of you throughout and that's an added plus.

Summary: Uh......
Review: A girl that takes her most prized possesion, a porcelin doll in a glass case, to her job. Unfortunately, she volunteers to teach blind 1st graders. She tells the children not to touch, but..... This is May, a little girl who grew up to be a weird woman. She is repulsive, pathetic, and psychotic. Let me put it this way, this is a long movie, too long for the anti-climax. When she makes her human doll out of human parts, cool. When she digs out her own eye for the doll, cool. When the 'doll' comes to life and moves his arm? Aw c'mon now. It would have been better if she had just died next to this lifeless, stinky thing. I would not watch it again. The chick with the great legs was hot though. You know the legs that May admired too.
