QUOTE(Acid Bath Slayer @ Jan 11 2006, 10:07 AM) I just saw it yesterday. I wasn't disapointed. I enjoyed it quite a bit. The criticism based in the amount of nudity or sex shown is very shortsighted if you ask me. It misses the entire point of the film. We follow these boys as they take a trip across eastern Europe in an attempt to find hot Euro babes, legal (or non legal) drugs. They are chasing that thrill, and price isn't really much of an obstacle. To me, this was the most powerful message in the film. This is what sealed the deal for me. The contrast was so bold and vivid that the torture became just that much more severe and grueling. If it was not for the nudity, this emphasis would not exist. (Also, I think the amount of "sex" was so exagerated. I was told to expect softcore porn. Sorry, no. It was not any where near that much sex.)  QUOTE(M1SSxCHR1SSY @ Jan 8 2006, 5:29 PM) Yes, they could have cut it out but it would have left out several important parts and it would also have had less of an effect/emphasis. It's honestly not even that much sex if you think about it. What could they have cut out?   Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. You said my point exactly. |

As Chrissy and Acid Bath have said, it really wasn't a lot of sex. Really, I've seen more on Cinemax Late Night. Also, it added to the reality of the movie and to it's f**ked-up-ness. |

I saw this a few days after it came out. I can certainly see the commentary on Amerocentrism, as well as the theme of hedonism. There really is a lot more to this movie than meets the eye. Of course, a lot of people will just see it for the blood and gore, and miss the message—but this isn't really the fault of the filmmakers.
Cinematographically, the movie was well executed, and I really thought the use of music was quite effective, too. Would I care to see it again, though? Not really. It wasn't exactly my kind of movie. I think it was well worth it to see it once, but I wouldn't be interested in seeing it again. |

I saw this and I was thinking to myself...meh, it's alright. If there was an underlying message to it I totally missed it. I was more impressed by the movie High Tension than this.

I watched it.
Didn't get really scared...it had an interesting plot. There was too much nudity, however. Some of it may not have been required but added to the plot efficiently. It was suspenseful and interesting. |
