big mistake

Rating: 3/10 (21 April 2006)

okay, i made the mistake of actually anticipating this movie. i was all like, "all right, this is gonna be pretty gory, and quentin Tarantino produced it, so it might be good". i went opening night, making sure i got my tickets in advance because i knew it'd be pretty big. the disappointment was overwhelming. horrible dialog, even worse acting, not nearly enough gore (although that part with the chick's eye was pretty nasty). i did think the directing was decent though. all in all, "hostel" was a big waste. not to mention the first hour of this movie, which was basically sex. now i know some people might like that, but that isn't me. it might've been halfway decent if eli roth actually knew how to write. and quentin Tarantino, i expected more from you. I'm a horror fan, and this was just bad. don't even look at it.
