Just what I expected

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

When will American backpackers learn that foreigners simply cannot be trusted, with Eastern Europeans being the most devious and dangerous of all. It doesn't get any more Eastern European than Georgia, where Landmine Goes Click takes place; it is there that soon-to-be married couple Alicia (Spencer Locke) and Daniel (Dean Geyer) and best-man Chris (Sterling Knight) go hiking, blissfully oblivious to the horrors that await them.When Georgian local Devi (Giorgi Tsaava) takes a group photo of the young travellers, he positions his subjects so that Chris's foot activates a landmine. Unable to move for fear of blowing himself to bits, Chris is forced to stand in the same spot while Devi goes for help, leaving Daniel and Alicia to try and calm their friend. Except that Daniel really doesn't care: having discovered that Chris has slept with Alicia, he has deliberately orchestrated this terrifying situation, with the help of Devi, as a form of punishment. So far, so contrived.After revealing to Chris and Alicia that he is aware of their dalliance, Daniel offers Alicia a shovel to dig a trench for Chris to dive into should he try to leap to safety; he then leaves the pair to their fate. While Alicia is digging, another local, Ilya (Kote Tolordava), passes by and, being Eastern European, takes advantage of the unfortunate travellers' predicament, playing mind games with them, humiliating them, and eventually raping Alicia while all Chris can do is look on helplessly. They're not having a good day.Through reasons that I won't go into (mostly because I can't remember), Chris is able to leap to safety without losing any limbs, but Alicia sustains fatal injuries. Meanwhile, Ilya makes his escape. The scene is now set for some serious revenge, Chris tracking down Ilya to his family home, and getting even.Landmine Goes Click could have been a very satisfying rape/revenge movie, but director Levan Bakhia really drags out the middle section—Ilya's humiliation of Alicia—and ultimately suggests that revenge isn't as sweet as the old saying says it is, with Chris looking less than pleased with his payback. I don't know about you, but that isn't what I want from a revenge movie: where's the fun if the vigilante isn't happy about his hard work?

Came across this on Amazon Prime, and thought the premise sounded interesting (though I think similar has been done before). It's not a feel-good movie by any stretch, but I thought the performances were excellent and very realistic, given the situations the characters find (or put) themselves in, and the movie was never boring. Certainly not a film for everyone, but for those who don't need upbeat plots with happy endings, it's worth a look.

the writers of this flick should be institutionalized and they should never see daylight again as to write such a brainless material is a crime. if this is the new type of movies they make now, everyone should just quit watching movies. horrible movie written by horrible people. why did the actors agree to such a script is mind boggling. with the money spent on this dirt, however small the amount, they should have bought food for homeless people. a shame the people in the country where it was shot agreed to let them film for small amounts of $.freedom of speech sometimes needs to be denied to ones that submit such scripts.

I've never commented about any movies. This one is my first, as I feel obliged to do a good deed encouraging not to watch this absolute rubbish. It's shocking to me, that this movie has won a few awards and has quite high rating on IMDb and I would really love to look into peoples eyes, who gave this movie 10 points and discuss the movie. Guys, really?! The only good part of this movie is the nature. The surroundings of Georgia are really beautiful, I love nature myself, and camera man gave me a chance to have a glimpse at the wild scenery of the country. Firstly, I thought it can be quite interesting movie as stepping on landmine idea is quite unique idea and the beginning looked promising too. I liked development of relationships of characters the first 10 minutes. It looked real and believable. But everything went down the hill the moment the landmine has appeared. The twists of story looked unreal after and the whole movie looked like a puzzle made of piece from different puzzles with just edges marching together. The crazy mans with a dog character looked really unbelievable and I couldn't imagine myself to meet such a weirdo in the real life. Well, maybe I haven't seen enough yet in this world. I could only give a credit to the main female actress and she tries to give more than basic acting. The main male actor looked more real at the first part of the movie, scared, with no control while trying to control smth at the same time. But in the second part of the movie where revenge kicks in, he looked just pathetic and his friendliness towards crazies' wife and his dialogue made me cringe and wanna puke. When I watch movies, I try to take something good from them, to get some inspiration, some laugh, fear, etc. I couldn't find anything positive I could take from this movie. Maybe I could recommend this movie only to criminals, prisoners who enjoy seeing rape scenes, dark and sick ideas, sadists, persons with high animal-ism instincts. Cause the rest, the positive things in the movie (like saving other persons lives, family values) didn't look real to me of just were basic and really boring. I finished movie till the end with hate feeling about myself, that I have watched it till the end and wasted my time, hate at the writer, who must be really obsessed with sex thoughts and sick images and movie reviewers who gave this movie high points and made me believe in and watch this movie. Even the next morning I woke up with this eeeew feeling and wished I've never watched this stupid film. Sorry for mistakes as Im not native English speaker. The lesson I've learned, you have to be careful choosing movies which even has 6 points of 10 or more. Some of them are.. you know.
