Profile of Perfect Sense

Perfect Sense can be described as atmospheric, thought provoking, and gloomy. The plot revolves around a dystopia, a plague, and a life turned upside-down. The main genres are drama, romance, and sci-fi. In approach, Perfect Sense is serious. It is set, at least in part, in a restaurant and in an urban environment. It is located in Scotland. Note that Perfect Sense involves nudity and profanity.

Summary of Perfect Sense

When Susan (Eva Green), an epidemiologist, reemerges from an affair gone sour, she encounters a peculiar patient—a Glasgow truck driver who experienced a sudden, uncontrollable crying fit. Now he is calm, but he has lost his sense of smell. Susan learns there are 11 cases like him in Glasgow, 7 in Aberdeen, 5 in Dundee, and 18 in Edinburgh. In fact, Great Britain has 100 cases, with additional ones reported in France, Belgium, Italy, and Spain, and they all appeared in the last 24 hours.Although Susan’s encounter with Michael (Ewan McGregor), a local restaurant chef, holds the promise of new love, the world is about to change dramatically. People across the globe begin to suffer strange symptoms, affecting the emotions, then the senses.
Director David Mackenzie returns to the Sundance Film Festival (Spread played in 2009) with Perfect Sense, a magnetic romance/thriller that offers a deeply moving proposition about the way the human race might weather a global pandemic.

Life goes on
In phases people start loosing their senses and it becomes increasingly chaotic with each phase. Perfect Sense is a stunning and creative love story and an eye opening view of how people take life for granted. It is playful, tragic and very...
Intriguing idea and great execution,
but somewhat annoying at parts. For example - at the first 20 minutes with the cry-pidemic, that gets old really fast. But the film left me with a positive feeling about it (the film), so I don't really know what to make of this.

Not for me
