Bound | Rotten Tomatoes (2025)

Audience Reviews

Torin F BOUND is the Wachowskis' feature film debut, and their skillful direction elevates the film into something more than the sum of its parts. Though a neo-noir erotic crime thriller that relies heavily on melodrama and violence, the film has a certain style and cinema artistry that hints at the greatness to come with The Matrix. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/29/24 Full Review R 9 'Bound' is a fun one!I've always wanted to get this watched since growing up with (the great) Jennifer Tilly via the 'Chucky' franchise and having heard this mentioned on/off down the years, so I'm glad that I have belatedly done so. It's entertaining! I knew of the love stuff and it sure does deliver, though I am surprised it only really happens at the beginning... it makes sense, I just assumed it was gonna be recurring throughout.Tilly and Gina Gershon are excellent together, very strong onscreen chemistry! Like with what I previously mentioned, I was also slightly surprised that Gershon disappears for what felt like a decent chunk of the movie; despite being literally next door. Again, works for the story but would've expected her to be there all the way. Joe Pantoliano stars behind them, ahead of a solid supporting cast.One to watch, which is interestingly The Wachowskis' directorial debut. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/24 Full Review Corey J pretty good, the dialogue at the beginning was a bit awkward but it smoothed out a little. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/22/23 Full Review PridePosterStudios “What did she do to you?”“Everything you couldn’t” Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/26/24 Full Review Milo M Thrilling, daring, exciting, but most of all—refreshingly new. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/07/23 Full Review Pragya Kirti R When Quentin Tarantino and Gasper Noe have a baby together !Wow, It has to be one of the most interesting films I've ever watched. Truly cinematic right from the first frame. It has that suaveness, right amount of seduction and modernized neo-noir theme. The Watchowski brothers (then) did such a fantastic job in their debut, Their use of palette on the screen is really interesting and distinctive. Bill Pope's cinematography is so rad and stylish that one easily notices the signature shots they later used in Matrix trilogy and Spiderman trilogy. It makes perfect sense of thrill and tension between the characters and screenplay. Performances are so good, Jennifer Tilly's distinctive and seductive dialogue delivery makes all the stress go away and Gina Gershon is also good but it's Joe Pantoliano who steals the show, Such a brilliant performance.
