The movie has its moments but is filled with dialog that comes out of nowhere, editing that leaves you wondering what you missed, and grainy photography/cinematography. The acting is fine but the rest of the movie lacks story and direction. Lacks it a lot. Review: intriguing, complex and somewhat bittersweet - this film is definitely not for everyone, but for those who are open to it (the topic and the way the story is told) they'll probably find it rewarding. given the number of negative reviews, I wasn't expecting much. however, I found the film to be interesting, well made and with a lot more depth to it than I anticipated. the title of the film describes it well: the blood oranges... it's like expecting oranges with sweet flavor but finding that you are consuming a fruit that has a lot more complexity to it than you anticipated, leaving you with a slightly bitter aftertaste. you can reject the fruit, or you can choose to accept it and enjoy it my impression is that the story features a clash of ideas related to love, respect, free will, lust and passion. we are all slaves of lust, passion and love, but how do we handle it? is it ok to be someone who just takes? someone who takes other people's things but refuses to share their own? where is the line between love and lust? personally, I think the main character can make a distinction between the two and that's how he is able to enjoy and survive charles dance's performance is superb! (he was the reason I was watching the film in the first place) under normal circumstances, I'd give the film 4/5 stars, but given the negative reviews I feel like it's ok to bump it up a bit ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Phillip Haas, Sheryl Lee | | Customer Reviews | 3.0 out of 5 stars 241 Reviews | | Format | Closed-captioned, Color, Dolby, Letterboxed, Multiple Formats, NTSC, Widescreen | | Genre | Drama | | Initial release date | 1997-01-01 | | Language | English | ## Images ![The Blood Oranges [DVD] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41IlR4yhdwL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ I couln't take it. *by C***S on November 1, 2016* I tried to watch this to the end 3 times but gave up.
