Why Americans know nothing about Europe?

Rating: 1/10 (1 September 2006)

Watching Hostel has been one of the worst mistakes in my life.When it starts and you see "Quentin Tarantino product", you think that it might be a surprise and you could have a good time, but you realize that Tarantino's name is the way to sell a film that has nothing interesting to show.
The film starts with three stupid guys in Holland that decide to go to Bratislava. During their voyage they meet a man in the train with a curious behavior. Has anybody realized that it is a copy of some of the scenes in the humor movie "Eurotrip".
Then we arrive to Bratislava, and there Is when is when you find that you're watching a stupid film. The city that appears in the film is not real. Bratislava is a fabulous city full of tourists. However we find a city where there is nobody in the streets, where children kill people if they're given chewing gums, where the police is blind... Sorry for mister Roth, but if he doesn't know anything about Bratislava, or even Europe, he should not imagine a city following the American imaginative ideas of Europe. PLEASE, INVESTIGATE A LITTLE BIT.
So finally, when you think that the action has begun and that it may interest you, you see some stupid gore images as the one when the killer falls and cuts himself, or when the main character decides to come back after being free, to save a girl by cutting his eye.
To sum up, I must say that nowadays, directors have decided to show blood and stupid characters, instead of making a well written script that could have made this film an much better one
