This Movie was INSANE! | The Substance Reaction

[@g0lddustt29]

I think a big part of this movie's message that goes unappreciated, is that it comments on how much damage being "afraid" of ageing can do you. You gotta honor your growth while respecting your inner child & vise versa. Elizabeth hates herself, so she hates Sue, and Sue hates what she is bound to become. It's a genius movie once you really dissect it

[@Rirawl1]

If you hate yourself, everything will go downhill. Respect yourself before anything.

[@highlander31527]

A friend of mine who was addicted to drugs many years ago and later got clean was unnerved by this movie. She told me that the way Elizabeth and Sue act are exactly how she felt back then. I had seen the movie, and it didn't even click with me, so I watched it again and saw it. For all of the body horror and gratuitous scenes that I watched the movie for originally for, the movie has some good storytelling too.

[@tyco1649]

This, a lot is lost in “why don’t they just get along” when a huge part of it is that Elizabeth hates what aging is doing to her but can’t stand Sue’s irresponsibility and immaturity, she’s doomed to be unhappy because she resents yet yearns for the freedom and carefree nature of youth. Sue is presented as the obvious “problem” of the relationship but she’s literally just a manifestation of Elizabeth’s own lack of self worth and insecurity over her age, Sue only does what she did because it’s what Elizabeth would do to herself for personal gain.

[@Rirawl1]

@@tyco1649 Also, everything happened because Elizabeth wanted to please her boss.

[@PurpleDovee]

yes that and the constant pretense of looking good for the public. Imo leaving the emotional aspect aside [ which you already explained.] , i think it was a jab at those people who get dozens of fillers and botox to look younger for the media and end up looking like freaks

52:33 yes, the substance is a commentary on a lot of things women specifically face every day, namely ageing - how society perceives and treats you as you age and how you perceive and treat yourself as you age! that's why it was a sad watching experience but I did giggle a few times watching you guys' reaction :) also, this is just how I took it, but I think the scene of elisabeth and sue being awake at the same time represents how disconnected they were with each other by the end. sue turned into bob the builder just so she didn't have to look at elisabeth anymore as she was a constant reminder of the body she so desperately wanted to rid herself of... thank you for the reaction!!

[@akhiltrc9708]

I also like that this movie doesn't leave Elisabeth out of culpability. She made all the choices she did, even when she had healthy paths to follow. Like when that old schoolmate of her's showed up to take her on a date. She kept pushing the limits all because she wanted the superficial adoration of her fans and celeb status.

[@getnis-m6g]

yeah it's interesting watching this in the middle of severance. the difference here is the memory is clearly there but she has such huge cognitive dissonance between the bodies

[@komos3719]

The use of two characters to portray self hatred and self sabotage was incredible.

[@MichaelAury]

All this talk about getting revenge on the other self, taking back some of the time, remember that the film constantly tells you that they are ONE. She's doing all this to herself, not to some other person, and any revenge would still be inflicted on herself. The whole film is an allegory of the self-hate that happens and turns one into a monster in the futile quest for perfection and youth.

[@thejaguarback]

I know the jokes about her having an easy life are easy to make, but I think that's a big part of the point. She is a white, able-bodied, healthy, wealthy woman living in, presumably, LA or a nearby area. And she *still* wants to do this. She still feels like she has to, even though she's got all the advantages in the world.

[@sensaiuriah5440]

There also is a difference in getting surgery and actually having the self. Motivation to workout. Most of the things women get surgery for they can achieve from just simply working out. But they themselves want instant gratification so they opt for surgery that could look horrible in 5 years.

Sheera perfectly encapsulated the lead character in The Substance with one biting line: "The dumbest woman I have ever seen." Honestly, it's hard to argue with that. She had the opportunity to embrace both versions of herself, striking a balance that could have preserved her sanity and even enhanced her life. Her younger self wasn’t a threat but a gift-a chance to live more fully and freely. Instead, her choices spiral into sheer irrationality, leaving you exasperated at how much easier things could have been if she'd just thought things through.

[@robertyeah2259]

The way I understood how the substance works is that the “Switching” is the real experience the company is providing. I would imagine that a clone is just a clone, it has an exact replica of your brain but it IS a different brain. The blood transfusion somehow makes it so that one body is comatose and the other is not. Somehow, the transfusion is able to make it so that both brains with keep the memories of the other after each switch. But since she terminated the clone and then jump started the clone’s heart with her own blood transfusion is why they could both be awake at the same time. I think the clone being awake by itself would probably be the default, and the switching between is the way you keep yourself as one. But her insecurity coupled with a very judgmental and shallow community causes her to split in half. The fight between the two clones is basically the same fight Demi was having inside herself the whole beginning of the movie, but just shown literally. Seems like it happened to the old doctor too, we allow our dreams of our younger selves to eat away at our present selves, and before long we become a wrinkly old person who is filled with regret.

[@rodgill9376]

Another thing I love about the movie is the way that almost everything is ironic in nature. For example, despite the fact that Elizabeth is still a very attractive and beautiful looking woman, she perceived herself as looking ugly on both the inside and inside but ended up becoming said thing that she feeling about herself. Another part that is ironic is that in the beginning, Elisabeth mentioned the word “jellyfish” and when she does die in the end, she LOOKED and died like a jellyfish while looking like the ketchup spot from the burger that the dude accidentally dropped on her star. It’s a very sad but relatable depiction of aging, social pressure, beauty standards and self-loathing. While it’s mostly told from the perspective of women, this is also a tale for men as well. For example, I have my own issues of self-loathing despite the fact that I work out at the gym. I still deeply struggle with it myself, particularly whenever I look at myself in the mirror because of my perceived “fatness” or “ugliness.” But unlike Sue or Elisabeth, I can kind of deal with it a bit better and I grew to accept certain parts about myself and doing my very best to try to work better on myself.
