I don't know why exactly but this movie intrigued me from the moment I heard about it and I was definitely eager to watch it. Eventually, I wasn't disappointed as I really enjoyed it and it’s too bad this movie is nowadays pretty much forgotten. Indeed, first of all, what is better than a movie starring Liam Neeson? A movie starring Liam Neeson AND Laura Linney! I thought they were both very im... read more

Good movie, but, more a hagiography than a real and serious biography of Alfred Kinsey. It made a total blackout about his position in favor of pedophilia.

View all Kinsey reviews

Description: One of the best films of 2004, Kinsey pays tribute to the flawed but honorable man who revolutionized our understanding of human sexuality. As played by Liam Neeson in writer-director Bill Condon's excellent film biography, Indiana University researcher Alfred Kinsey was so consumed by statistical measurements of human sexual activity that he almost completely overlooked the substantial role of emotions and their effect on human behavior.

"Before Liam Neeson was punching people in the face, he was doing proper acting. Proof with this biopic of Alfred Kinsey, a professor who gave up his passion for insects in order to create a study on the sexual habits of males. Laura Linney plays his wife and the pair are terrific. The film could have become sensationalised yet director Bill Condor keeps the story in focus and shows just how important Kinsey was in releasing an America that refused to recognise the truth about sex."
