That was an excellent one.

Highly Overrated But Still Good

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

This movie is so underrated. Solid performances,especially by the three leads, Thazi Grad, Lior Ashkenazi, and Rotem Keinan. Very good direction, excellent cinematography, editing, and well written. A refreshing film for adults. Hollywood is losing it's ability to make a film like this, with their obsession with the inane blockbusters. This movie was diabolical in a fun way. Satirical, tense, funny, dark, and brooding. It hit it on so many levels. I must admit I have not had the pleasure of watching too many Israeli films, but this one was outstanding.

The only thing horrible about this movie are the jokes. They are so bad you feel ashamed for the writer/director.This movie is really painful to watch: Story is totally predictable and dumb, when the movie is supposed to be funny you just think "jeeeeesus" i feel so embarrassed. There is no surprise in the story and you look the whole time on your watch when is this over...The Character of this movie are so dumb that it really hurts. This is the worst movie i have seen this year...For the gore/splatter freaks: Its still a BIG disappointment. If you are interested in graphic violence you will think this movie was made for your grandmother. There is nothing shocking at all in this movie. If SAW is a 10 then this movie is a 1 in terms of shocking scenes.

Though Quentin Tarantino might have been exaggerating the movie a bit by calling it the best movie of 2013, it would probably land somewhere in the top 15. The movie has both violence & gore, but what really hits home is the psychological terror and the mystery of the identity of the killer. The slow details of the murder cases really clash with the motives of those involved and really makes you take a side with who you think is right and wrong. Though the movie doesn't reinvent the serial killer genre, but it does stand tall with its amazing cinematography and black humor. One of the better torture porns of recent memory (though not terribly graphic). Its on Netflix and certainly worth a watch!Full Review at: http://www.simplefilmreviews.com/2014/05/big-bad-wolves-2013.html

Watching this film, I was saddened as there is so much potential and really the only thing which I feel kneecaps the film from truly reaching the pinnacle of suspense is the a lost forced humour. There are many instances at attempts of humour, however if you were to remove them, this film would be much more intense, almost to the point of perfection. The acting could've been much better, especially in the case of Tzahi Grad, who has a tough role in playing the father of a murdered and sexually assault girl who is pursuing vengeance. Although he nails down the sadistic aspects of the role, it's the lack of emotion towards the fact that his daughter has passed away, the singular moment in the film in which the character shows emotion towards this was during the scene when he has to be held back at the scene of the discovery. The movie is certainly worth a watch as a Revenge Film, I believe this film is a lot better than "Blue Ruin" which was a good film but extensively long in certain parts and overall unfulfilling. Without the comedic parts, this film would probably stand on the same level as "Spoorloos" however people who watch films purely off the recommendation of Quentin Tarantino, please understand his style before you complain, look at the movies he produces (not the ones he writes and directs) and also maybe actually listen to the man speak about films, what he likes about them and maybe also a list of his favourite movies for the year or decade. (Tarantino puts "Speed" above "Fight Club" and says that "Speed" was one of the best movies of the 90's)
