afwul film

Rating: 1/10 (31 May 2007)

i saw this movie after one friend told me it was awful, and another told me it was brilliant. I figured any movie that sparks such reactions should be watched.
The Hostel, besides being a sorry excuse for a horror film (i mean there is nothing scary in it, ppl nowdays seem to confuse the word scary with disgusting..) is also pathetic. I am czech by nationality, and the way the east block is portrayed is as cliché and stupid as can possibly be. Living in Holland now for the last 8 years, i had to laugh at the miserable way the movie portrays amsterdam. et cetera.. the film is full of lousy, stereotypical bull* to put it in short. I found it hard to watch till the end. This is probably the second worst movie I've ever seen, beaten only by cabin fever..also by eli roth..hmm..what a coincidence. i guess its not my type of film or smthin..so if ur a roth fan don't take me seriously, but honestly i cant recommend this at all.
I give the film one star because the ending (after 90 minutes of crap) was slightly amusing
