This movie is garbage
It accomplished it's body-horror genre goal by making me feel very uncomfortable for the whole movie. I couldn't really decide if I liked it or not, but I definitely do not want to watch it again.
Upon reflection, I think I liked it. But I'm not sure I would really suggest it to anyone else unless they are really looking for that particular type of thing, which like, personally, I really hope you are not.
Felt like the movie version of having a weird dream where you're picking at a scab that's not ready to come off, but you keep doing it anyways. It's a mood, to be sure.
Also the marketing made it look like it was going to be a lot more cyberpunk-y aesthetically than it really was, which was a little disappointing, as the neon-lights and cyber-helmet treat-hog I am.
Any more insight to offer or...?
What movies have you seen lately that you do enjoy? Not intended as condescending as it sounds, generally curious. I recall finding Possessor fine at the time, however I remember nothing about it whatsoever. It is a nepobaby production afterall.
On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 72 out of 100, based on 23 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".
I think "Acclaimed" may be a bit of an overestimation
