I do not understand French, but I could still tell the acting in this movie is very good all around. I want to especially applaud Garance Marillier who plays Justine in the movie. 

She was really good, and I really bought her as both the timid vegetarian and the disinclined cannibal she slowly becomes. The director really puts this young actress through some hell, as she is covered in blood, rashes or some other bodily injuries throughout most of the movie, and you feel sorry for her, but at the same time, fear her. This is a testament to Marillier and I really hope she does not get typecast the rest of her career so I can see her in other things.

There are some flaws to be had the movie. I felt the pacing of the movie was little off during the second act. Some of the character motivations was not really explained really well, so the editing seems disjointed. Justine goes from a vegetarian in one scene to sneakily eating raw chicken in another without much of a smooth transition. 

And the ending was kind of disappointing in my opinion as it felt like the director did not know how to end the movie, so she had one of the characters make a choice that was alluded to the entire movie. This is really unsatisfactory because up to that point the movie was tension- filled and unpredictable. Why Julia Ducournau chose to end the movie in such an obvious way leaves me in wonder.

Overall I think Raw is a very good horror movie that is anything but typical. The tension stems from character development, and not a masked killer with a machete. It does have some pacing issue and a copped-out ending, and it is not a perfect movie nor is it for everybody.

Fans of cheap jump scare horror might not enjoy this movie, and those who are squeamish probably will not be able to sit through it either. But if you are someone who enjoys a well-acted, character drama juxtaposing with some really intense horrific scenes, then by all means, please go and watch Raw.
