Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Jeanskynebu the audience applauded

Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Broken" is an American 20-minute short film from 1993, so this one has its 25th anniversary next year. The name of writer and cast member Trent Reznor tells audience members perhaps already that this is indeed a collection of music videos by the band Nine Inch Nails and if you see how old this one is, it also makes obvious how long their careers have been going on already. The videos are connected by a plot, in which a guy is physically violated and forced to watch these videos. Oh well, they are not bad enough to call them torture I would say, but I think I have heard better stuff from this band already, also from Reznor, who is an Oscar winner now thanks to his work on "The Social Network". But back to this one we have here. I'd only really recommend it to huge fans of NIN, otherwise it will not be a memorable watch by any means. Not a memorable listen either. I suggest most people can skip it and it is certainly a bit on the overrated side here on IMDb.

burns_alan29 Finally found a high-quality download of this after some years of liking NIN's music and being vaguely aware of a clandestine movie being out there, and today watched it in full for the first time.Then, unfortunately, had a mini-seizure; so this is not so much a review as a warning to anyone else with epilepsy to take extreme caution in deciding whether to view this film. 'Broken' contains flashing images and ultra-fast jump cuts throughout all the linking scenes and the 'Wish' video, so I guess I won't really watch it again.For the rest of you - if you're fairly tuned in to Reznor's creative wavelength, you'll enjoy this as long as you don't swallow all the hyperbole. From this distance, in our post-Se7en, post-Saw, post-Hostel place in popular culture, 'Broken' won't generate visceral revulsion as much as a bit of a 'so what' shrug. Stick to 'Closure', where the music video highlights can all be found.

whiterabbit010 I've seen this film via clips on Youtube and I have to say, it grossed the crap out of me. I didn't know whether to scream or cry.It perfectly suits the "Ultra-fast chunk of death" that is the album Broken. Its filled with grotesque images of torture,murder and necrophilia (dead people sex. in case you didn't know.). Whatever was going through Reznor's head at the time of recording comes out in this violent snuff film that makes Saw look like a Disney movie.Its on you tube a lot, thats the easiest way to see it, though with horrible quality. Try and find it on peer to peer sites or NIN fan sites. REZNOR, PLEASE RELEASE THE DAMN THING!!

psychotr-2 What can I say it's a morbid masterpiece! Trent Reznor is one of the greatest musicians of our time and this film puts all his demented, twisted work to the fullest. To put in one word it's truly AMAZING!!!
