Director Bill Condon's "Kinsey" is an okay film biography of Dr. Alfred Kinsey (Liam Neeson), the pioneering sex research professor from Indiana University. This film focuses on Dr. Kinsey, his wife Clara (Laura Linney) and the team that participated and created the Kinsey Reports. "Kinsey" starts with his childhood, being smothered by his conservative father. When he becomes a zoology professor, he marries one of his students (Laura) and discovers that they have some sexual issues. This sparks his life long obsession with human sexuality and research.
The acting, directing, script and technical aspects are all solid. The film is actually more lively than the subject might suggest. Although, the film does not offer any profound insight into human sexuality, the film does theorize that more people need to open up and be frank about sex. Beyond that, there does not seem much that needs to be discussed about this film.
Rated R for nudity, strong sexual content and language
Aspect Ratio: 2.35
