An abomination

Rating: 1/10 (22 April 2006)

Let's establish this--I loved The Ring. This movie is, however, an abomination. It has just enough perverse artistry to sometimes be effectively sadistic in it's imagery. At other times the movie moves tediously over familiar gound. There is some adequate acting, but in my opinion the main character is weakly acted. If you'd like seeing people torn apart in the Coliseum, go to see this movie. Some scenes in this movie are the equivalent. It should be rated NC17 for VIOLENCE, but a guess a rating of R just for violence should tell you something. This is one of the one or two movies that I have seen in my life (and I've seen thousands), which I wish I had not seen.
