The more you watch the actors give life to the central idea of a meeting of scarred bodies and equal minds, the more you feel like you’re watching something not just perversely over-the-top but personal.

Drunk on its own ambitions and the permission to go as big as possible, The Bride! is seldom cohesive (and occasionally incoherent) but it’s also rarely boring, the sort of noble failure that’s more compelling to watch and discuss than a lesser success.

The Bride! is the kind of big-budget swing that everybody in Hollywood secretly wishes that they could make, too.

The exclamation point in the title is emblematic of Gyllenhaal’s try-hard approach, which doesn’t always land on the right side of cringe and could easily be exhausting if you’re in the wrong mood. I was in the right mood.

Less a horror film than merely a horrible one... a personal project designed to make a point rather than curry favor, a swing for the fences that misses by a mile...however valid the point it’s aiming for, this awful movie makes it stupefyingly badly.

Like the character that gives it its name, The Bride! that is wildly and messily alive and even if it cannot possibly last, it at least knows how to go out in a memorable blaze of glory.
