Customer Ratings & Reviews

I really liked this film and the action was superb.

intense action, more intense family dynamics, even more intense oedipal complex

Awesome! The movie was terrific and in very good shape!

Awesome film. Avantgarde type film, with good acting and filmmaking.

Mesmerizing and hypnotic, although not for everyone

Can't wait to watch this and see what everyone has been saying both bad and good.

Movie storyline was dark and was typical portrayal of corrupt Asian law/mob. Movie was ok, but something worth watching on TV versus getting on DVD.

This was a good movie, but it could have been better!

Seems as if the only English spoken was what was on the video which I viewed and caused me to order. The credit's are not in English. One viewer was correct, a lot of staring.

This is easily one of my favorite films this year. From Nicholas Winding Refn, the director of DRIVE, BRONSON, and the PUSHER trilogy comes his latest vision of the underground drug ring run my Julian, (GOSLING) and his family. After Julian's brother is murdered, his mother pays a visit to Thailand not only for the funeral but for revenge. They do not know what they are getting themselves into. The lighting and cinematography and intense acting and imagery onscreen is nothing short of spectacular and even though there is probably less than 20 lines of dialogue in the film it kept me on the edge the whole time. some of the most beautiful looking scenes that i have come across in a while are greatly accented by the ominous music that is placed in the background. There is something so compelling and transcendental about this film that it sucks you in. Although this film is not for everyone i highly recommend it to anyone with an open mind and especially to anyone who is a fan of Nicholas Refn. ONLY GOD FORGIVES - 9.5/10

This is a pretty decent movie from the director of Drive, and like that film this movie has a lot of style and atmosphere with a lot of long takes. Worth a look. The blu-ray presentation is very good and this is definitely the version of the movie you should get.

I'm a much bigger fan of this film than most people are -- including probably the director. Yes, it's dark and nihilistic, but it's beautifully twisted, disturbingly violent, and gorgeous to look at. Give it a shot and see if it's right for you.

i thought it was part 2 to drive and it was not. but it was a good movie.
