filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Caryl It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
fuzaporlapiza I haven't read the book but I did read the negative reviews before watching this movie. Therefore I was prepared for the worst. It's not a movie to see if you're tired and better do not drink any alcohol neither since you will need a clear brain to puzzle your way through the story. It's more like a mix of detective and soap than a heavy thriller.The story centers around a girl who moved with her husband and two kids to a nice and very wealthy district of a Dutch town. Soon she is introduced in a club formed by neighbors, the "Dinner club". When the problems arrive she finds out that not anybody gets along with everybody.
shakiro1976 While watching this film i became curious who the producer is, because i was really wondering if he made more movies or that maybe this was his first movie (i found out that his first movie was in 1995 and that he received a price for it) It's a miracle that he found a crew with some 'big' names (for dutch standards) for a movie that is SO bad. And while i was watching the movie i was also wondering if the actors were satisfied after seeing the final result of the movie. I thought it was one of the worst movies i've seen in the last 5 years (and i watch 2 movies a week on average) It's not a thriller. It's difficult to understand. The acting is very bad from time to time and even the camera work is far from what it could have been. I didn't read the book, but when people say its a thousand times better than the movie, i would believe them, as it wouldn't be that difficult to reach such a level.
pvdloo I am not gonna spend to much words about this movie just because it isn't worth it. I rarely write reviews but after watching this one I feel the urge to do so. I think someone in college can do a better movie than this. I have read the novel and I thought it was very good so I was curious about his movie, It doens't come close to the quality of the book.It's all to fast, no suspense at all. Bad and much too fast dialogues, story is and stays a riddle. Book was very clear though. I was so amazed how a good book and very good story could be so messed up. Amazing.
Seemp deHond By far the worst movie i have ever seen. In all fairness, it's based on a book by the biggest of all fluff writers so it had nothing to start from. There is no thriller element in this movie. Let it be clear that it is not a thriller. It's a soap opera about well to do, but bored suburbanites who have nothing to do but screw each other in a perfect looking town. Then someone falls of the roof of a hotel. Now here is supposed to be the turning point "where everything is not what it seems." But it deflates instantly. Nothing happens, no-th-ing at all. The motives, the dialogue, the complete and utter emptiness of this story is an insult to the public.If you want to watch a decent European thriller with a similar theme that is worth your while watch The Door (Die Tur) with Mads Mikkelsen and if it has to be dutch try Tirza.
