Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Controversial director Neil LaBute tweaks our culture's moral compass in his dark comedy The Shape of Things. Dorky museum guard Adam (indie heartthrob Paul Rudd, made to look as dweebish as possible) meets student Evelyn (Rachel Weisz) as she's preparing to deface a classical statue; instead of stopping her, he musters up the courage to ask her out. But soon he finds himself so completely in her thrall that he willingly succumbs to her every want--and she wants him to change his hair, his clothes, his face, even his friends (Frederick Weller and Gretchen Mol). In In the Company of Men, LaBute presented two men cruelly experimenting with a deaf woman's affections; The Shape of Things proposes that women can be just as monstrous. Though LaBute could stand to delve more deeply, this well-acted and cunningly written film will provoke conversation afterwards--and not many movies nowadays can do that. --Bret Fetzer

Another "out of the ordinary" Hollywood flick. Rachel Weisz is a killer in her role, which is certainly not one I would expect to see her play. A bit dark, but great directing and acting. Worth watching more than once.

Not a bad film, but not as profound as it is trying to be. Compared to the directors earlier work (In the Company of Men), this film is a bit of a disappointment. Still, the film does have its moments, and a couple of funny scenes. Eh. There's better stuff out there.

Weisz holds this together. It gets too talky at times but is nicely shot and paced pretty well. The ending is a nice nasty surprise. A little too bitchy for my taste but it does what it sets out to do, with a fair bit of aplomb and style.
Solid comedy of modern manners full of acerbic edginess, brought from stage to screen pretty decently.

..on amazon are overweighted in the positive direction. Always subtract at least one star to allow for the over representation of film students who generally seem to rate pretentious schlock very highly.
SoT gives an excellent depiction of a psychopathic woman who uses her position as a graduate art student to destroy an unsuspecting fairly decent guy. Whether that was the intention of the filmmaker I can't say. I wasn't interested enough to watch it again with the commentary track. ... Read More

I knew nothing of this movie and didn't expect to like it, but I found it interesting. Once I became interested in the unusual pairing of Rachel Weisz and Paul Rudd, I had to watch the whole thing through.
There's a very sinister suprise ending that made me say...HOW COULD SHE DO THAT? Check it out, it's not too bad!
