One viewer found these scenes particularly awkward due to the company they were with at the cinema.
In a TikTok video shared earlier this month, Matt Giffen expressed: “Two things I wish I knew before watching Babygirl.”
“Number one, don’t go watch that motherf**ker with a family member. It’s basically an hour-and-a-half porn video.”
“Number two. Don’t make the mistake I made and go and watch that b***h in like a very small intimate movie theater where you’re shoulder-to-shoulder.”
Why? Well, spoilers ahead.
Giffen mentioned a particular scene ‘where she’s getting […] for like 10 minutes straight’.
He added: “My kneecap was touching the old geezer’s kneecap besides me.”
“It was more awkward than what was happening on the screen, bro. I felt like I wanted to die, it was so uncomfortable.”
Despite the discomfort, Giffen praised the film: “Don’t get me wrong, Nicole Kidman smashed it. That lad in the film, he’s gonna be set for life. It was actually a really good movie.”
He concluded with some advice: “Just two things to know: No family member, do not be sitting next to some random geeze grazing his kneecaps. Do not be doing it – from experience, trust me, please trust me.”
Other viewers quickly shared their thoughts in response.
One TikToker commented: “Bruh I watched Poor Things with a parent not knowing what it was about.”
Another asked: “Y’all don’t watch the trailer first?”
And a third decided: “I WILL be watching this movie alone.”
