Console best movie i've ever seen.

ShangLuda Admirable film.

Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

vacantskies00 Revenge is a modern French exploitation of many films that came before. I Spit On Your Grave, Ms. 45, and Martyrs are on full display here as we get an ever explosive rape/revenge film with hemoglobin to spare.The pros here are the locales, cinematography, and score. Visually, this film is a sight to behold. Gritty and picturesque in the same measure makes for a breathtaking experience. While a French venture, this film feels more akin to an Australian exploitation film. The rocky, golden landscape appears straight from a 70's ozploitation cannon. The score is retrograde in the ways of John Carpenter and Tangerine Dream. Synth driven melancholic themes that drive each scene and character. Paired with the lighting and camera work, it makes for a nostalgic experience.The cons: The cast did the best they could ever achieve with the script. At the end of the day, there's not a likeable character in the bunch. Sure, we rally for the raped and abused heroine in the end, but even she isn't a ray of sunshine. A mistress at best, we're forced to identity with the "other woman." Not to say she isn't sympathetic and strong, but it takes a complete suspension of disbelief and prolonged development of "revenge," that by the time we back her up to end the nightmare, it's so over the top that it doesn't matter anymore. The runtime is a factor. A lean hour and twenty minutes would suffice. However, we're treated to extended nightmare sequences, hunting/cover up scenes, and an over the top ending with lots of gore, but no logic. Overall, Revenge is a modern take on classic rape/revenge films of the 70's and early 80's. While bloody and well photographed, the long runtime and the lack of a relatable lead and subsequent characters makes for a familiar road that's been traveled better, long before.

emmanueld-1 Well filmed but disturbing and unbelievable. Although I enjoy seing a beautiful girl running half naked in the desert I did not enjoy seing her being abused. Classic subject matter, young girl get abused and she takes her revenge. The young actress is stunning!

cruise01 Revenge (4 out of 5 stars).Revenge says it all with the plot. It is a French movie with most subtitles and some in English. It is that rape and revenge action film. It is bloody, gritty, and can be disturbing. But seeing Matilda Lutz being a flirty, wanting to be a star personality to being a gun toting bada** female is awesome. Revenge feels like an experimental type of film. It has its style with low dialogue script, cinematography work that tries to capture a perfect lighting/shadow setting, and an electronic music score by Rob. The plot begins with Jen (Matilda Lutz) flying with a French millionaire Richard (Kevin Janssens) to a distant and isolated home in the middle of the desert. They begin their affair when Richard told his wife and kids he is out on a hunting trip with his friends. When his friends Stan and Dimitri show up. They have a wild night party. When Richard is out away. Stan rapes Jen. When Richard finds out, he does not care. He tries to bribe Jen from keeping it to herself. She escapes and is pushed off the cliff and falling to her death when she gets impaled by a dead tree. She survives the fall and severely wounded. And the three man find out she is out there in the desert alive. They go hunting for her while she prepares to go on revenge on all three men. The film is very fast moving. The opening scene with the reflection on Richard's sunglasses on a helicopter and Jen's queen B attitude. The film focuses on Jen's development and how she is affected from the assault. She suffers through a lot but gets back up to stop those men from getting away with what they have done. Next thing you know she is picking one guy off at a time as they are out in the desert with their off road bikes and jeep looking for her. Be aware, the movie is bloody and graphic. Especially, the self-patching the wounds. And the bloody climax of the movie were Jen and Richard are shooting at each other in a house with shot guns. And a dizzying chase in the house with the hallways getting more bloody as they encounter each other. And also the nudity feels more gratuitous with a nude guy fighting Jen. The movie does have its style with its electronic music. With plenty of camera angle butt shots when Jen is wearing skimpy outfits or her bloody warrior look in the final half hour of the movie. Matilda Lutz is a beautiful actress. Seeing her become a bloody fierce warrior is amazing. Her performance is outstanding. I would like to see her do more films. Overall, Revenge is a good action thriller. The direction has a sense of feminine power and a stylish outlook with music, camera angles, and lighting. The plot is a simple revenge story. It is a gritty and bloody movie. It can be intense in some scenes.

linda-93355-37097 I tried to watch this movie to the end but I couldn't, too much is expected from the viewer.From the rape scene this movie went south with the story and reality, from beer can tattoos to burning a dried log while impaled on it and not get burnt. This movie not horrible but it is quite close.
