Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.
Bea Swanson This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
hbeeinc A German woman who's lived in the States for at least 15 years marries an American and has two children with thick German accents. This is how the movie starts. Could it really get any better? The answer is no. No it cannot. There's very little recommend this "movie". I believe it might be the only film that contains only male nudity. The movie got made and somebody saw it. That's about the only win here. It's also made the list of Most Violent Films Ever Made. And it probably deserves that. With the caveats dispensed, the movie is Scheiße. There is not one believable performance. The script makes porn movies look intelligent. Every now and again, a glimmer of hope shines only to find the shadow of a miserable line, bad special effect or a ridiculous plot point snuff out its spark. People die from a shot to the shoulder. I don't mean bleeding to death. Apparently in this world your brain lives in your shoulder. Worse, the people who live in this world think getting shot in the shoulder means death. Which is odd, because after you've had your face smashed with a hammer a dozen times, the arteries in your arm severed and your limbs pumped with a local anesthetic and you can STILL manage to drag yourself up a flight of stairs and then walk across the floor, you'd THINK you'd have a better understanding of what the human body can take. The biggest crime is the end. Don't worry, I'm not giving anything away because the score almost drowned out the actors so I'm not 100% sure what happened. This happened in a few places killing any chance of understand the "action". Did the filmmaker not watch his own movie? Was he so bored that he said "f*** it. I got paid and it's not like I'm making anything of value"? 2 stars because otherwise someone might stumble across it on the "worst" list and watch it by accidents.
TheRetardedVacuum After skimming through several bad reviews for this movie, I had low expectations, maybe that's why I enjoyed it as much as I did, that and the incredible gore.While suffering from a rather slow start, it gets good once the gore gets going. There is some incredible action and gore in this movie. Some of it is pretty unnecessary and is done simply for the sake of showing more bodily mutilation on screen, this is one of those things where whether that's a good thing or a bad thing all depends on the viewer, personally I loved it myself!That's not to say the movie doesn't have it's flaws, because it does (hence my lower rating). Some of the gore effects aren't all that convincing (which is forgivable considering this movie had a limited budget), the acting is not so good, the shaky cam during the gore scenes is annoying, there are at least two scenes where the music drowns out the characters voices, and another where two songs actually play over each other! It's really annoying.Also the scene where the main woman (played by director Olaf Ittenbach's wife Martina) is getting beaten while tied to a chair, could have been really effective if it didn't look so fake. If they could do a decent job of making all of the other scenes of violence look reasonably good, why not this one? There is also a part during that scene where the guy torturing the woman decides for whatever reason to untie her, then she stabs him in the neck with a broken glass bottle, brilliant dude!Given the amount of gore in this movie most of the flaws can be forgiven so a certain extent, but they did taint my enjoyment for this movie a little. I would still recommend it to gore film fans. Remember, watch it for the gore and nothing else.
bargebum I signed up to IMDb solely so I could write a review on this hideous movie.My friend and I hired this movie because we were in the mood for something gory along the lines of Saw or Hostel.What we got was the most ridiculous steaming turd movie I've ever seen.We should have seen it coming, the director cast his wife who speaks ridiculously broken English as the lead actress. Off to a bad start.It wasn't until I went through and read some other reviews that some of the ridiculous, and pointless scenes in this movie came flooding back to haunt me... The cutting in half of a child from head to toe, the nude man dismembering a carcass that went for about 5 minutes, I seem to remember a man hacking off someone's head with a shovel and then saying something along the lines of "don't lose your head".I even remember some sort of sexual assault of a woman who had been punched in the face by a detective.The worst part about this movie is that my friend forgot to take it back, and as a result we got charged 50 dollars.It's like paying someone 50 dollars and getting them to belt your head against a wall for 90 minutes.Does that sound like a sensible financial decision? No? Neither is paying to watch Dark Divorce.
homecoming8 "Dard Divorce" is a raw mixture of horror and crime and if you see the Unrated Version, you're in for quite a treat. The few comments I read so far are rather negative and I wonder why. The music isn't bad (not perfect either) and the same goes for the cast. It certainly is not amateuristic in any way. The plot is thrilling with a couple of neat twists, some surprising although I have to say I saw the last one coming. But the story really keeps you guessing 'til the end. But what really makes the movie intense and gripping is the amount of violence and blood: boy, there's plenty of that ! There are scenes that surpasses the Saw and Hostel movies by far. The director really builds up the tension and the special effects are great and extremely bloody. It is the realistic tone of the movie that makes it so disturbing at the same time. I really enjoyed this one as a horror-fan (and as a gore-hound, I have to admit it so there) This is certainly not for everyone's taste but I'm sure the fans will enjoy it but be warned: it doesn't get any more brutal than this...
