Release Date September 20th, 2024

I love The Substance. I believe that The Substance is the best movie of 2024 so far and one of the best movies that I have ever seen. And yet, I am not sure how I feel about recommending that you see The Substance. This movie messed me up. I think that I am better for the experience but I also believe that I will be describing the experience of The Substance to my therapist so that I may fully recover from this experience. Does that sound like something that I can recommend to anyone? 

The Substance stars Demi Moore as Elisabeth Sparkle, a fitness guru of many years experience. Imagine Jane Fonda from the 80s, including her Academy Award winning acting career, and you have the basic template for Elisabeth Sparkle. Though she looks incredible, she's being pushed out of her fitness empire by a sleazy male executive, played by Dennis Quaid at his most ingeniously grotesque.
