Review of Ted K

Ted K (2021)
7/10
Not too sure about all of the psycho-sexual undertones...

Warning: Spoilers
I consider myself quite versed on the Ted K lore. This movie is well made, very artistic approach with a mixture of visual styles.

It's really a 1 man show, Sharlto Copley is really good in this, and he also acts as producer, just in case you didn't know.

Re the many psycho-sexual undertones and suggestions that Ted K was massively sexually frustrated and that this somehow influenced his terroristic activities, i'm not sure if this is entirely accurate and officially documented? Not sure if it's entirely biographical or some artistic licence taken by the movie maker?

They basically say that Ted K being sent to university at the young age of 16 has massively hampered his social skills especially with the ladies. I found that scene, when Ted K confesses over the phone to his mother that the most he was able to accomplish with females was to only manage to kiss 3 women in his entire life, that scene was utterly cringe worthy and again not sure if it's based on actual events?
