The Movies: Reviews by a Film Geek

Directed by Mike Leigh

Written by Mike Leigh

Starring: David Thewlis, Katrin Cartlidge, Lesley Sharpe

Mike Leigh’s Naked is an unflinching look into the human condition. Having just written that I hate myself, I feel so cliche. Let me start over. Mike Leigh’s Naked is a filthy, dirty, sarcastic, mean spirited, humorous, nicotine stained, arguably misogynistic, dark, gloomy, disheveled, intelligent film with a performance so good it ruins other movie performances by being so fucking amazing.
