Movie Review by Misty

It's Sick!
Literally.
However, I really enjoyed it. I used to hate that thing where they translate a movie from another language into English and their lips don't say the same things that you're hearing, but this film was good enough that it didn't bother me at all.
I was turned on to it by a new friend and I'm was excited to see that Netflix had it available for me to watch right away. I had a difficult time paying attention to it, because of the volume of my family, but eventually...after the third time trying to see it...I was able to watch the whole thing and understand what was going on.
It's about a man that is imprisoned for 15 years. You never think about what something like that would do to a person until you see something like this. Imprisoned for fifteen years being subjected to gas that makes you pass out and waking up with your hair cut and different things. Nobody to talk to and the worst part is not knowing why you're even there or who is doing this to you.
It's a funny twist to be released suddenly after all those years with wierd clues to all the answers you're searching for...
This movie is kind of a trip and I think anyone watching will trip out as the story progress'. I encourage people to see this film, though, because it's a pretty awesome flick!

This is one of my all time favorite movies.
Oh, and I hate dubbing too. Whenever I watch a movie that's dubbed, I end up not paying any attention to what's going on because I'm too busy making fun of how silly they look. Always watch with subtitles. :-)
Now you have to see Lady Vengeance and Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance. |
