   Is Perfume The story of a murderer a good movie?

   • Perfume: The Story Of A Murderer Stands as one of the best movies I've ever seen. Perfume is a visual spectacle, a feast that gives till the final scene is shown. The plot moves fast, leaving no room for dull moments. The themes Perfume deal with are dark and askew, and it doesn't shy away, getting into the nitty-gritty it needs to tell it.

   Is perfume based on a true story?

   • Summary Based on Patrick Suskind's best-selling novel, Perfume: The Story of a Murderer is set in Paris and revolves around an eccentric 18th century murderer with an extraordinary sense of smell. This is a dark, dark, dark film, focused on an obsession so complete and lonely it shuts out all other human experience.

   What's missing in perfume the story of a murderer?

   • What's missing is less a sense of the protagonist's inner nose (which is very well-trammeled) as a sense of his inner life, motivation or desire. Try as it might to be refined and provocative, Perfume: The Story of a Murderer never rises above the pedestrian creepiness of its conceit.

   Is Perfume a good movie?

   • Perfume is sure to annoy as many moviegoers as it entertains, but at least even the naysayers would find it difficult to argue that film is nothing if not a departure from the ordinary. The film, though admirably ambitious, is resolutely earthbound, mired in ick and slime and never more wooden than in the delirious climax.

   Jan 4, 2007 · In this world, perfume is like the passage of an angel -- some people think, literally. Grenouille effortlessly invents perfect perfumes, but his ambition runs deeper; he wants to distill the essence of copper, stone and beauty itself. In pursuit of this last ideal he becomes a gruesome murderer.
